Off Topic: Absence
Hi all,I know this is way off topic, but I find it best to let you all know that I am alive and well.
I have been quite busy lately and will be for quite some time still.
I am not sure if this is goodbye, but it at least means quite a long period of absence. It has truly been a pleasure to take part in the behindthename.com board and I thank you all for treating me in such a kind and helpful way.I wish to give special thanks to Nanaea, Pavlos, Davidh, Phyllis,
Gia Nadine, Sarajeanne and of course Mike C.You made me feel welcome and respected from the very first day and for that I am thankful. You gave me many good experiences and I hope I was able to give you some back.
Be well all of you and take good care of yourself, for I deem that you are far more precious than you might think.-Selwyn
Bookends
Simon and GarfunkleTime it was, and what a time it was,
it was a time of innocence,
a time of confidence.
Long ago, it must be,
I have a photograph,
preserve your memories,
they're all that's left you.To chose Bookends by Simon and Garfunkle may be too much, but I must admit, that I feel a little melancholy posting this message.

Selwyn, I hope you have a meaningful and blissful sabbatical from BtN. Drop in whenever you have some time to say hi. The fact that we all love you cant be coincidental.
PavlosFrom the same record:Seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won't you stop and remember me
At any convenient time?
Funny how my memory skips
While looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme
Drinking my vodka and lime
I look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
