Some of you may have noticed that I have not been writing as frequently over the past few months.

Today’s news should explain that. I have been a little busy.

When I write, I tend to write about things that I have observed firsthand, and unfortunately for my writing (considerably more fortunate for my other aspects) there has been little that I have observed firsthand this year that I could share. I cannot really discuss any of the details of the transaction, but suffice it to say it would make for an interesting book…

Now that the deal has been announced, I should be able to write more freely about things I see. So I hope that I will resume my intended pace of 500 words a day. Come to think of it, I now have an awful lot of free time on my hands, and probably nothing but free time in a few months. So stay tuned, and stay in touch.
