I have returned ... [sweeping arm gesture] ... from the sea.

[Rain Man]

I got fed up with stuff a couple of weeks ago and decided to run off to sea. So I hopped a ship and headed off to South America.

I got down to the Netherlands Antilles before I remembered that I don't speak Spanish, so I decided to stay there and be a beach bum. However, I sunburn too easily, so I had to leave. I went east, thinking that perhaps that I could install a communist government in Grenada, but they weren't having any of that, so I went back to St. Kitts to discover a hidden civilization in the rain forest and get rich off of the resulting fame. Alas, St. Kitts is pretty much explored out, so I went to New York for a while so I could have a nice, quiet place to think. I decided there to come back to Denver and run a market research company.

Pictures to follow. And by the way, it was great that you guys missed me. Did anyone even notice that I had completely left the continent?
