Damien the Leper Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I was wondering where he's been. I miss his insight and I have loved learning from him. If Volgadon or Robert F. Smith were to go on hiatus like him...I think I would have a meltdown. I need me some Hebrew studies guys. Link to comment

Kenngo1969 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I think his ambition is to get every degree Oxford offers, or something like that! At last count, he had two (or at least, was working on the 2nd ... Slouch! 2 Link to comment

volgadon Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Will you miss me?I would. Link to comment
Bill “Papa” Lee Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) I would.I fear I am too old and too conservative as of late...to old for sure, after yesterday I feel like I had a kick me sign on my back. As for the guys mentioned I miss him as well as well as many others...after 6 years here I think I have worn out my welcome. I am just glad for the friends I made. I am not leaving unless forced, so I'll still hang around but doing more reading than posting. I tried sending you a PM yesterday, but your folder is full.

Damien the Leper Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Will you miss me?Yeah, I would. While we may not agree on much theologically, I still enjoy engaging in conversation with you. If I ever decide to go to the god forsaken south...I will let you know. Link to comment

Calm Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 after yesterday I feel like I had a kick me sign on my back.Perhaps the way you feel may have something to do with the time of year. Once January hits, all I want to do is crawl in bed and pull the covers up and just hibernate until spring when everyone starts smiling and having some fun again. Link to comment

blackstrap Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Don't you miss the January Chinooks,Cal?. We have been at +8 C here for a few days,with the wind of course. Snow melting,water running,splattered car window,etc. Link to comment
Calm Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 All of us have been in mourning for them this year. We have been watching the thermometer for Calgary as closely as Utah lately...and constantly sighing. Link to comment
maklelan Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 A thread just for me? I'm flattered. By way of update, I was accepted last year to go back to Oxford for the DPhil, but they didn't end up offering me enough funding. I decided to take my time finishing my thesis so I would have more time for family and work. I'm waiting to here back about this year's apps (I'm kinda focused on Emory University this time), and I just started working full time for the church's translation division helping them out with Bible translation projects. I've been off the grid just because I've not had a lot of time to myself for quite some time. Let me know if you have any other questions! 2 Link to comment
