Haha – don’t man. I’ll just go delete you from last Friday’s Weekend Reading 😉 (j/k)

Man, can you read! Thanks for putting me on your list. You continue to impress me with your posting frequency and quality of content.
Cheers,
Mark
Thanks, Mark. I actually feel like I’ve let the readers down a bit since I haven’t had the time I usually do to write the big posts. A lot of good guest posts have helped to fill in the gap, though.
Hey Kevin –
Hope everything is going well. Some great posts as usual. Thanks for the mention.
Mike

Hi Kevin, thanks for the link. Second the thought, I don’t know how you do it, getting all that reading and posting in, but you do do it.
I’m still catching up on the reading but almost there! 🙂
