Thanks Safe, and everyone. I appreciate the kind thoughts.

I've decided to take a small break from the board, which just happens to coincide with some vacation time I have coming. Believe me, I need it - it has been a very stressful time for me lately. I'll be back in a couple of weeks, chilled and alert, like my tiny friend up there. Until then, keep up the good work and guard my share of the gold, OK?

Thanks again, and of course....

YARRRR!!!!!
