Of all the guys in all the gin joints in all the ...

[Eddie Bush <ek...@swbell.net>]

Howdy.  Yes, I know my name is probably "mud" for having not been around 
for so long -- sorry about that.  I've toyed with how to phrase this and 
how much to let you know, but I figure I have nothing to lose by coming 
out and being honest.

Tomorrow morning, my wife and I will make an appearance at the 
courthouse to file for a divorce.  We, despite having strong faith in 
God, lost faith in (and respect for) each other.  Thus, we elected to 
end our relationship and get on with life.  Neither of us were happy, 
and a certain party (who will remain nameless) was "less good" than the 
other about trying to make the situation better than it was.  Finally, 
both parties agreed that it would be foolish to contiue fighting for 
something that would never be attained (happiness, that is).

Now, just so everyone knows (and nobody has to ask):
    - it was mutual
    - we had no kids (thank God!)
    - we're both glad we are doing this

Please, I beg of you, don't write me and tell me how sorry you are.  I'm 
not sorry, and neither is my wife, so you certainly shouldn't be.  Yes, 
I'll have to agree that it's unfortunate we couldn't mend our 
differences and continue on as better people -- people have to be 
willing to change though (and care enough about effecting the change to 
make a conscious effort to do better).  Obviously, someone lacked that 
desire; I'll leave it to your imagination to determine for yourself who 
that was.  I know some of you have wondered -- a couple have even 
written me to check-up (always nice to know you're missed -- thanks 
guys) -- so there is my explaination.

I'd just as soon this just be a single-message thread (in other words, 
I'd prefer nobody felt the need to comment) -- I simply felt I owed 
folks an explaination.

I still am not as "settled-in" as I'd like to be, so it may be a while 
yet before I really start to contribute anything meaningful, but, now 
that I'm back on the list, I'm going to try and work myself back into 
contributing.

Later! :-)
