I recently received a letter from Governor Bev Perdue appointing me to the Professional Advisory Committee for vision care programs in the state of North Carolina. I will execute the Oath of Office swearing in later today to finalize the appointment process for my three year term.

Orange and blue tints, baby.

I checked my look in the mirror and said "Holy SHIT, I've got a lot of blackheads!"

You don't usually hear good news in a paragraph that contains both the phrases 'letter from the Governor' and 'execute'.

I am representing the letters of the alphabet other than "E" in a suit demanding equal representation at the top of the vision chart.

You're in my cross-hairs now.

This past weekend I attended the annual summer conference of the North Carolina Optometric Society in Myrtle Beach, SC. On Saturday evening, I was instilled as the President-Elect for our professional society. This weekend, I will be heading to Salt Lake City, Utah for a week as a member of the North Carolina delegation to the annual meeting of the American Optometric Association.

The next year or two should be very interesting and very hectic ones for me.

Better destroy any collection of embarassing online interactions. (Maybe we need to shut down the forum.)

Congratulations. North Carolina eyes are in good care, even as their heels remain covered in tar.

Re: Letter from the Governor...

Well, I know i haven't been around much the past few months. Tonight is the first time I have been able to sign onto the forum since June 5th or 6th. I don't know when my schedule will lighten up enough to let me goof off, I mean take part in the stimulating discussions, on the forum again with any regularity. On Saturday, June 9th I was installed as President of the NC State Optometric Society. Since then, work at the office is my stable time. The nights are a blur of email correspondence and phone calls. It is starting to decrease in volume the past few days. So hopefully, I will be able to get back online more regularly in the near future.

Well, my year as President of the North Carolina State Optometric Society officially ended on Saturday, June 8th when I passed the gavel to my successor. I am now the immediate past president, which everyone keeps telling me, is the best possible position. I have a few projects that I am helping to complete and then I will find myself with a lot more free time once again. I expect to be back in the Crane Pool on a regular basis again in a few weeks.

Where to begin, there are som many threads and hopefully several new members since I've been away. It will take me a while, but I will eventually catch up with all the happenings of the CPF.

Fortunately, four of them were against the damn Yankees.
