Imagethief would like to take this spare few minutes to apologize to readers for the radio silence of the last week or two. I've been a little busy.

What do I mean by that? Well, if delicious idleness is a bamboo hut on a tropical beach, and my normal work busy is a four story walkup, the last three weeks have been the Empire State Building. I worked insane hours pretty much straight through the golden week and last weekend and will be in full buckle-down until late next week. At which point I will go to Australia for a well-earned vacation, assuming that global financial collapse hasn't grounded the airlines and reduced international travel to ass-in-the-breeze Kon-Tiki style rafts and the whim of ocean currents.

So October may be a bit of a light month overall. Normal service will return as soon as normality (or what passes for that at Imagethief Central) does. Meanwhile, occasional links and micro-snark can be had through twitter.com/imagethief.
