      LOL Michael–looks like you got out in the nick of time.

      It’s rough to watch a company go down hill…esp when you tried to make it better and you gave so much of yourself.

      Good luck with the new job! Don’t worry about getting caught up right now…just get settled in and all that. We’ll be here when you’re ready to jump back in.
