And the quote at the top of his connected blog reminds me why I have such great respect for him:
WE DON'T DO "NEWS" AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU
The "news" is killing us all.

Yah. Your absence has been noted these past few days, SLAD. You OK?
There is no me. There is no you. There is all. There is no you. There is no me. And that is all. A profound acceptance of an enormous pageantry. A haunting certainty that the unifying principle of this universe is love. -- Propagandhi
What is that, Grizzly? An image don't show up? Same thing happens to me. But what are you getting at if that's not it? Explain please.

Hoping Slad is well and that we'll see her back soon.
Missing Rory as well. Wassup Rory?
Good to see Wombat recently posting.

OK SLAD, this isn't funny anymore. By "really" I mean really. But I really have been reflecting on impermanence this week. I went to a memorial service on Monday, learned my step dad is quickly losing the use of his legs and a friend's brother was just admitted to ICU for acute pancreatitis. Just too much going around. SLAD, if you're well, please just let the board know. You don't even need to post again.

Well, a little bird landed on my shoulder (that did not want to be identified) and told me SLAD is still kickin' it somewhere. She has met upon something "difficult" (I have no details), but she wanted to relay to me and the board that she exists. I have nothing more to go on than that. Hang in there, SLAD.
Edit: That's the video. I feel uncomfortable leaving one of my favorite songs censored the way it really came out in the day. So here it is with the "bad words":

Sometimes I catch myself trying to be barracuda, OP ED, and compared2what all at the same time, and failing miserably.
Miss reading youse.
Both his words and manner of speech seemed at first totally unfamiliar to me, and yet somehow they stirred memories - as an actor might be stirred by the forgotten lines of some role he had played far away and long ago.
