Have not seen any posts from @RRP, @lkapigian, @BeanHead or @dbCooper for awhile.  Time to reengage.  The pace of this place is around a constant so hopefully nothing serious on the other side.  FWIW-

    Hopefully, they’re just pulling a @caliking and have been hiding in the shadows. No shade (😉), and pun intended.

    To the above list, I would add @nolaegghead (all was good upon last check) and @Sardonicus.

    An interest in what people have going on, I believe this is lost with the new generation. I would not be shocked at all if Egg sales are down. My daughters boyfriends have no interest in cooking delicious food. They would rather play video games and eat take-out, both are in their early 20's....maybe its just too early for them to find their charcoal groove.

    I’ll reach out to BeanHead.  She was like a ray of sunshine when she was here posting and we had a few exchanges over DMs so I’m pretty sure I can get a hold of her outside the normal forum channels.

    And @nolaegghead is of course doing just fine these days he’s just preoccupied with all of the toys in his shop.

    main thing to me is “what does it feel like to visit”

    community is main element
    system technical interaction is the other

    Welp, scratch that.  She retired this year and no longer has a university email address.  I will try the LinkedIn route.

    @RRP. I’ll be thinking about you tomorrow. Good luck with your procedure.

    Me? Well I am awaiting a procedure to be performed tomorrow to run a stint and wire up through my groin to open the worst of my two 90% clogged carotid arteries. Treatment with medication would be too slow and surgery too risky so actually the simplest and quickest way is the stint. Also weighing in on the decision was the extent of calcification in my brain.        So let’s get ‘er done boys!
    Best of luck, Ron!

    you betcha, but not egging, I spend tomorrow night in ICU as a precaution but should be released Saturday. I’m in my final month or at least early January for the final set of permanent dentures. it has been a 13 month odyssey which I knew going into it, but i have never regretted it!  I’ll always remember this year as Meatless 2025.aka an odd way to lose 10 pounds.

    Don’t know if it’s just me, but know I get a thing that says that my post has to be approved to be posted. Didn’t think I posted anything controversial. 

    Edit to say it didn’t happen on this one, but the last two comments I posted did.
