I wish I had something more concrete to report, but it looks like we're going to be skunked for 2012. Rap and I had big plans that included the beginning of a new and quicker project, but I haven't heard from him since Sandy hit. As you guys may or may not be aware, Rap lives in NY and the situation up there is less than ideal. There is still much of the area still without basic utilities and there's supposedly another hurricane/tropical storm heading in that direction.
This communications blackout is nothing new to us considering that we went through the same thing when Irene hit last year. I don't worry for Rap's safety because he's one of the smartest people I've ever met and he knows how to take care of himself. He's been through stuff like this before. However, I have absolutely no idea of his current status. The best I can do is sit tight and await his contact while trudging along with other projects.
I'll add a note to this entry when comms have been re-established, but there probably won't be another posted update until we have something substantial ready for next year. Sit tight, boys and girls.

Hope Rap didn't lose much weight like I did; the dark and cold blunts everything, disheartens you at a constant rate. There's a thread in General for after he gets back on his feet, to relate what Sandy did to him and his. Production travels a bad and bumpy road, huh?
