In Case Anyone was Wondering…

I am not dead, have not quit blogging, and James did not banish me.

I know I am not the prolific blogger that I once was and that I do disappear from time time, but I am pretty sure my recent absence is one of my longest.

Despite the fact that this is supposed to be the slowest time of the academic year, it has been anything but (long story, or set of stories in fact).

I just thought it was worth a quick note.

    Looking forward to more posts from you. The presidential race is heating up, so we need some expert analysis!

    Y’all come back now, y’heah?

    (And please feel free to weigh in on the merits of polling in the comments to James’s article on possible new auto-call blocking capabilties…)

    I’m glad you’re not gone for good, and I hope it’s a good busy rather than a bad busy — or that you at least get a couple of awesome stories out of it.

    I look forward to your eventual return to blogging.

    I know where you are at. Joe Gandelman sent me an email asking if I was still alive since I hadn’t posted to the Moderate Voice in weeks.

    Admit it. Putin’s been secretly sending you to fight in the Ukraine. J’ACCUSE!

    Timely. I had thought about your absence yesterday.

    Every year I think, “Oh, thank God, summer quarter (semester) – time to catch up!”

    And every year I’m sadly disappointed.

    Yet still I hope
