Hi, all.  Yes, I know there hasn't been a show in couple weeks.  March is looking like the busiest month ever for work, and this is also the time when I have to work out the bigger details for my unfortunate divorce.  Not a happy-go-lucky time, so please be patient.  As always, feel free to sample the past episodes if you haven't already.

Episode 85 has been recorded.  It'll be out soon, hopefully.  I hope to have 86 done also, so that you can get a double helping.  Also, hopefully, I should have the internet back in my home this week or next.  That'll make the world turn twenty times easier.

Here are the rest of February's reads:

There was a show this week... but it was accidentally completely deleted.  ...Oh, well; it won't be the first time I've had to completely re-record an episode.  I hope to get 83 to you as soon as I can redo it.

As a side note, there has been a winner to the contest in ep.82.
