"Lock the doors and close the blinds -- we're going for a ride..."

Well -- I know I've said this before (and I'll probably say this again), but I'm officially shutting down shiny@mindsay -- meaning that this will be my final post at this location. For the past ten months I've been blogging at http://www.shinystakeout.com-- feel free to check it out and comment if you'd like.  I likely will continue to be around to read and comment upon my friends' blogs here at Mindsay.

I wanted to say thanks to all of you, once again, for being part of a remarkable community. Some of you have become wonderful frinds with whom I've chattedon and offline -- some of you I've even had the pleasure to meet in person, and some of you I hope to meet in the future. A special nod to a few people -- laughwithme, a very special friend who has been there through thick and thin; the wtf crew of chilly, nomad, and allaroundpsycho, and, of course, my lovely wife arrrgylesocks who fits in all of the above categories.

Just because your name isn't listed above doesn't mean that I don't care about you -- Many, many, many of you have really been wonderful friends. And I'll certainly be around to visit.

Peace,
-- S
