Updates


1. Mike is actually doing a bit better now.  Not that he is on the road to recovery, but they have been able to make better use of the meds and now he is better coping with its effects.  This does not mean that he will resume posting here but it is a definite improvement in his quality of life.

2.  I will be taking a brief hiatus from the blog. This does not mean that SSI will be shuddered permanently, but I will need to take a knee and put my energies elsewhere for the moment.  Thank you so much for your continued support and understanding.

Mike,

I am sorry to learn about your illness. Your persistent efforts to expose the BATF's gun-walking scandal has earned you a permanent place in my affection and regards. May God richly reward you for your faithful service in liberty's cause.

No need to apologize, Sir ! I was always amazed at the amount of effort Mike put forth on an almost daily basis for so long ! Life goes on and needs our attention.

Mike and Matt -- You're both in my thoughts. Mike, I'm glad your journey's going better. I hope the rest of it is as peaceful as can be. And kudos to you, Matt, for blogging in Mike's stead. Take whatever time you need; just come back when you can.

Mad Marty Lindstedt belongs in a nuthouse, but he was not convicted of child molestation. He was found mentally unfit to stand trial, spent several years in a loony bin, and had the charges dropped with the prosecutor still able to refile the charges until 10 years after the victim's 18th birthday.
