Oh fare you well, I must be gone, and leave you for awhile,
But wherever I go, I will return,
Though I go 10,000 miles, my dear, though I go 10,000 miles.
===
Got to get to work on a project, a book, an internet thing.
Check the blog every once in awhile for partial insights.
No. Not yet. In a week or so.
and now in honor of my more maudlin friends.....
Oh, all the comrades e'er I had, they're sorry for my going away.
And all the sweethearts e'er I had, they'd wished me one more day to stay.
But since it falls unto my lot, that I should rise and you should not,
I gently rise and softly call, Goodnight and joy be with you all.
See the rest of you in six months or so.
Joe(what a swell bunch you all are)Nation
errr, does this mean I won't be able to have breakfast with you in October?
Woah, hold up, wait a minute, where the hell do you think you're going? Okay, I guess I can't stop you, so I'll just wish you luck on this mysterious "project" of yours. I guess since it's a writing gig, I'll be seeing you on the book tour in the spring then. I'll look for you at Barnes and Noble doing a reading or a booksigning.
By the way, is it possible that I will at least still see you in the city somewhere at some point. These gatherings aren't the same without you, you know.
Go get 'em. Write like the wind, young man!!!
Kicky(I want my own personal signed copy of this thing when you're done, you magnificent bastard)can
Oh no, you can't leave us Joe (voice of reason) Nation. I'll miss you too much. And just where is this blog you speak of?
Free (completely uninspired to write anything witty here) Duck
Six Months???
You can't stay away from us that long!
What will I do without you?

Wake up, ehBeth. Offline doesn't mean dead.
Really? are you sure about that, Roger?
Leaving?! Oh yeah? That's what you think. I've got your e-mail address and I'm not afraid to use it.
(I want more info about this mysterious project, btw.)
NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Don't forget to send us a postcard... :wink:
This is a very big move indeed!
Six months, did you say, Joe?
Have you seriously thought it over, considered all the ramifications .....?
I'm so sorry you are leaving, Joe...
.. but you will be back, though, won't you Joe?
...won't you?
The gentleness of all the gods go with you--as well as the inspiration of a few muses.
Hold your dominion.
I wish you all the luck in the world.
I hope that this writting project turns you into a famous writter! I hope your publication is completed with no hang ups and turns out to be exactly what you wanted!
Have a great time! Come back and tell us how it went
and were to pick up a copy
She ( i hope your banannas dont go limp on you anymore) wolf.
Six months? My word, Joe! Everyone here will most definitely miss you. I do hope Eva will keep us apprised of your stuff.
Stumble It!
