One Final Post

First of all, thanks for all the emails, comments and tweets.  I especially want to call out the people who compared it to a breakup.  I woke up the next day feeling guilty and remembering all the good times ... so yeah, pretty much nailed that one.

Anyway, I missed a couple housekeeping things in that last post.  First of all, for the folks wondering about Tommy's next gig, I'll post the info here so people on a desert island right now will know where to go.  For everyone else, though, the easiest thing to do will just be following @lawlornfl on twitter.  You'll hear it there first.  (@bountybowl and @shlynch will echo chamber it too, I'm sure.)

I also spent some time playing with twitter this weekend, since I was pretty much trapped and the walls were closing in (more on that below).  I'm honestly not sure what my long-term commitment to the medium will be -- although I'm enjoying reading things from the folks I know here as commenters -- but you may want to throw a follow out to @igglesblog, just in case there's ever news.  Please note that unlike the last week of the blog, I'm not foreshadowing anything with this announcement.

Finally, there was a little consternation in the comments about the "real" reason things were shutting down here.  Hopefully this is clarifying:
