"Why, Tom," you're asking yourselves, "you just updated. Why update so soon? That's not like you. It's scaring me!"
Well, for one simple reason.
Let's go back in time....
March 16, 2005.
Your Humble Narrator first stumbles onto SG, and the rest, as they say, is history.
A lot has gone on in the 2 years since that fateful day, some good, some bad, some extremely shit. But through it all, this site, and all the people, groups, discussions, general banter, learning, laughing, monkeys, boobs, boobs, more boobs, "all the day with my cock up" hilarity, and so on that comes with it, to be perfectly honest, is sometimes one of the last things that helps keep me sane and feel, well, not so lonely. In short, you've all helped bring a little joy and love to this mediocre guy from the borderline boonies of Massachusetts.
So, in no particular order..
... oh, wait, it's alphabetical. Scratch that.

As well as those that are no longer here, but dammit, they should be.
Also, the people that I have bookmarked, which help make my comment excursions take more than an hour, as well as the people I just chat with on a regular basis. You all know who you all are.
I know, flattery gets me nowhere. But, through everything, this has become a second home. And I hope to continue to be here for a long time.

This will be my update for the weekend, as I, having alluded to in my previous blog, will be enjoying my weekend off w/good friends and general geekiness and debauchery.
So, everyone enjoy their St. Paddy's Day, please be safe, and I hope you all are, as always, well.
Stay tuned...
