I’m not ghosting you. But I’ve got some personal business — the kind of stuff that invades everyone’s life now and then — that needs my attention and will be taking up the majority of my waking hours. So I’ll be taking time off from writing, because if I can’t give it my complete concentration, I feel as though I’m shortchanging my readers.

One exception, however: My Sunday rant about Putin’s hostages will continue to appear. I made a pledge, and I intend to keep it. They will not be forgotten.

So, see you on Sunday, and weekly thereafter, until this other stuff is done. Then, to quote Arnold you-know-whom, I’ll be ba-a-a-a-ack. In the meantime, the world will continue spinning . . . hopefully, not completely out of control . . . without my pearls of wisdom and humor. Be good, be happy, and be safe.

Just sayin’ . . .
