I am returned, Gentle Reader(s), from a self-imposed late spring/early summer hiatus from this page. Why, whence and wherefore you might well wonder. Well you might, although I’m quite sure that no one actually is wondering. I certainly wasn’t. Wondering, that is. The whys, whences and wherefores are simply that I found myself lacking sufficient motivation to slave over a hot MacBook day in and day out with little to report other than another Thursday evening’s inventory of Matador toonage. But do not be deceived into thinking that the lack of posts upon this page are indicative of a general lack of industry upon my part. In actuality I have been applying myself with a fair amount of diligence to other undertakings, variously of verbal, musical and visual natures, both hither and yon and betwixt and between. I don't have anything much (other than some additions to the Digital and Analog photo pages) to show for it just yet. You'll just have to take my word for it.
