Hey Matt
I have also been thinking about you a lot and missing you here. I figured you must have been having some sort of struggles. I can relate with work politics issues. It seems as folks are getting squeezed more for less. I’m glad to hear you are doing better and have returned. I gotta ask: did you get to try any Bakers Delicious?

Joe, the old truthful quote holds here pertaining to your point “Power corrupts, And Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely” (Lord Acton).
Absolute power always corrupts. (And one wonders why those who want a ‘borderless’ world think such a absolute power wouldn’t end up being a nightmare…is beyond me)

Welcome back Matt. I am glad things are better. We missed you buddy!!!
Life is full of trials. Glad you weathered this one, Matt.
I know it is a relief to be away from the brink.
Really glad to hear you’re doing better and I hope we see more of you around here. When people go quiet like you did, I always wonder if they got burned out but didn’t much think that would have happened to you, so I feared it was some personal life issues. Glad you overcame them and I hope to see you around more often now.
Welcome back Matt. Reminds me of the Jerry Butler song,
“Only the strong survive.”

Welcome back Matt! I was worried when you hadn’t posted in so long.
Glad you at least got a few figs and berries. That SBT looked pretty tasty. Seems like you can always rely on figs, friends and family, and fellow fruit growers. We’ve missed you.
