Like many before me, I hang up my blogging spurs

Exit the stage.  Ride off into the sunset.  Fade away.  On this, my 144th birthday.

From where the sun now stands I will post no more, forever.

I have become too old. And sodded. There comes a time when the pontifications cease to sparkle, and the links lose their luster, and the online blogger forum becomes a prison and all that is left is an old man's range time.  And heaven.
