Hello Forums, its been a long time.  I logged off back in 2023 because we made big life changes and moved halfway across the country.  Since logging off:
 
I sold my computer, only game on a switch very rarely or play Pokemon Go on my cell. I miss tinkering and gaming, but there just isn't time for it any more. 
 
My daughter was born, and she is fantastic and absorbs all of my time. She is just over a year old and is extremely far ahead of her set milestones and I blame that on the fact she takes more after my wife. Little girl definitely got her mommas brain.
 
Completed two "Hotter'N Hell" bike rides in nearly 100 degree temperatures.  2023 I completed the 100K (63 mile) ride with lots of prep, and 2024 I was able to finish a 75 miler with very little prep and really felt the sting of that second ride.  2025 is my last chance to complete a 100 mile ride. 
 
Anyway, those are the big things.  I hope you all have been doing well.  I miss the conversations.  Not sure if I will be able to respond much, but know we are alive and well over here.

      Hello & good to see you are keeping busy
     
    Congrats on surviving the first year of parenthood.  I've always said, the first one should come with an owners manual.
     
    Those are some challenging rides you have done; no idea how a bike seat can be comfortable for 63 - 100 miles, even if it were 70F instead of 100F
     
    That was a huge killer case you had for your main PC; I hope it found a good home
     
    May you & yours have a fabulous Holiday Season, and a Healthy & Prosperous New Year
