I have had to take a few short breaks this year because of lack of time, lack of content, lack of internet connection etc. When it comes to excuses I reckon I have a million of ‘em. I think maybe this Occupy Wallstreet movement is effecting me and has enlisted circumstances to help out since circumstances seem to be occupying my time. That is really hard to imagine since I was already pre-occupied anyway there shouldn’t have been any vacancy.
I am not quitting. I am just waitin’ for an opportunity to start my own occupation movement when I can occupy my rockin’ chair and start really thinkin’ again. My updates have been hurried and not up to the quality I should strive to acheive lately. Due to not havin’ an internet connection I have been very negligent in comments on the other web sites and I do really appreciate those who have stuck with me and commented anyway.
I have been doing some craft work and trying to remodle the Rooster Roost…my man cave for almost a year now and it seems the hurrieder I go the behinder I get. I am not sure how long of a hiatus I will take. At one time I was posting 10 comics and 7 devotionals a week. I am now down to 5 devotionals and 3 comics of questionable quality. At one time I had a buffer of over 30 comics. Now I have no buffer and don’t have a comic for today.  I will be back. I am just not sure when. I will still visit you comics and sites when I have a chance.
Thanks so much for your support in the past and I will visit all of you that I can and let you know when I start thinkin’ again.
Bo

Sigh, you and me both, good sir. Get a good rest and hope to see your thoughts again.

Thanks Doc. I think I just bit off more than an old man can chew.
November 14, 2011 at 11:32 am |
We always enjoy your thoughts and comments. Take a rest and we will wait.

Thanks Ron. I always enjoy your stuff. We have a pretty similar political stand.

Ah, I’m glad I’m not the only one that gets behind in my old age. I’m like you…I just got to sit and think. All this doing is very distracting.
You take care, I know you haven’t forgot me. And I will see you when you get the chance to do so. Meanwhile I will watch as always for your posts.
Have a good day, Bo!

I will still try to check sites and comment when I get the chance. Thanks for your support. It means a lot to me.

Take as long as you need Bo. We will be here when you get back.

Thanks Jeremy.. Just got more goin’ on than I can keep up with.
November 14, 2011 at 12:40 pm |
But….but….but…. you are the only one who reads my comic. All kidding aside, I understand and cannot wait to see your comments back on the web again. Until then I will think of ya every time I have catfish.

I’m still goin’ to try to keep up with comics as best as I can. I just don’t think it is fair to expect people to support mine when I can’t give them the attention they deserve. I really don’t want to miss your comic. I love it.

I’ve been missing you on twitter quite a bit, but I do know how busy life can get, specially when we get older and time does that weird thing and makes itself shrink so much.
Thanks for letting us know how it is. When I get a spare moment myself I’ll send you a little something. Be well…
November 15, 2011 at 6:39 am |
Thanks Jande. I’ve got at least through Thanksgiving to be extra busy.
It seems like when I do get a chance to get on twitter that there is no one there at the time.
November 15, 2011 at 1:02 pm
Yeah. I’m hardly on myself these days, what with 30Characters and nanowrimo getting ready to be hauled off to a vacation in N Carolina, and beta testing SWTOR, being Guild leader for a nanowrimo group in WOW, and burning through my buffer for Aedre’s Firefly. Also want to help out Caz with a guest comic. *sigh*

Looks like you’re heading to Occupy The Outhouse/Dunny/Loo/Thunderbox/Toilet
Always enjouy your comics Bo. Have a restful break.

You keep winding up in the folder where I have to approve your comments. It might be because you keep changing sites. Sorry about being late answering you.
November 14, 2011 at 7:55 pm |
Rest up, my good man. I can surely identify with you. We’ll keep the light on until you make it back in.
November 15, 2011 at 6:41 am |
Thanks George. I guess I just been burnin’ the candle at both ends and now the ends have met.
November 14, 2011 at 8:55 pm |
It seems we’re always behind in everything these days.Take as much time as you need, but we will miss your posts and comments.
November 15, 2011 at 6:42 am |
I’ll try to visit as much as I can.
November 15, 2011 at 6:48 pm |
We’ll be here when you come back!! God Bless!!
November 16, 2011 at 10:44 am |
I’ll be around from time to time. Bearman suggested that I post some pictures and I will try to do that.
November 17, 2011 at 9:58 pm
That would be great, but we just want you to take care of yourself and when you get inspired and are able to post, we will be here. You know, I don’t think I have ever seen a man cave!!
November 15, 2011 at 8:46 pm |
You need to post pics of your crafts and man cave.
November 16, 2011 at 10:44 am |
Good idea Bearman. I will try to post some next week.
November 17, 2011 at 10:39 am |
I’ve certainly been there and done that (and will probably be there again very, very soon)!
Have a great break, Bo! Don’t forget to spend a little time trying to take it easy, too!

Like the guy on CSI says, “You can sleep when you are dead”. I will get some rest but at my age I am afraid to slow down much or someone might bury me.
November 19, 2011 at 6:35 am
I meant NCIS not CSI.
