[RINGS] All is safe.

I have been gone,... but no more.
Everything is safe and sound.




Fellow captains,.... I look forward to our next meeting.
There is much to discuss and consider.

Smirkley, It is good to have you back. Hope all is well.

Thanks USAF and it IS good to be back, and things are better than well.

In my travels,..I was basically un-plugged.
No phone, no TV, no internet, one newspaper, very little broadcast news, and good friends and family. (ok maybe a couple of cold ones too )


It is interesting the clarity of thoughts when not exposed to the incessant noise of the world. Given this opportunity, I have re-thought a few things. Things that were not so apparent until my absence allowed me to review things again uninhibited, which I hope to go into detail later on. But my most recent return to the hunt, has already confirmed some of these thoughts.


This may get to be real interesting to say the least.
It is too late for me to turn back now,...and I am ready.

Glad to have you back Smirk it wasnt the same without ya. Cant wait to see what develops with the captains now that we have all four together again.

Finally we may continue with all 4 captains . Been waiting...

Welcome back Master Smirkley, we have much to discuss.

Welcome back Capt. Smirkley, may have feared the worst in your absence. We have tried to keep things calm, come to the meeting spot we have much to discuss.
