From the Editor: Inadvertent Holiday

My apologies for the relatively quiet this past week on BGG News. The combination of:

1. Tending to an injured wife,
2. Preparing taxes, and
3. Readying a house for market

put a crimp in my ability to work. I should be up to speed in the next day or two, and if anyone is looking for a nice home in Concord, NH with a huge game room, drop me a line. Given the right buyer, I could even leave the shelves somewhat stocked!
