      Looks like you don't post much here anymore. I'm not complaining, I'm just wondering how that is working out for you ?

          You're not too observant, are you? I haven't been posting much here for a couple of years. And now that Fearless Leader has finally admitted that the so-called Soapbox was never more than a Sandbox, I don't have much reason to post here ... nor interest.

                  I hear OJ found out who the real killer was. As soon as he gets out of prison, he'll reveal the perpetrator.

                      It's taken me a little while to get around to reading this, but it didn't disappoint. That was extremely interesting. Thank you.
