Due to my work, I can no loger handle my mantis breeding at least for now, and certainly hope to come back soon. Any one needs to contact me; please email me

Just because you are not going to be keeping mantids doesn't mean you have to quit coming to the site and posting. I hope you stay around even without mantids.

 
I certainly understand the issues with time and work, Luke. You will be missed. I wish you the very best and look forward to seeing you again when you are able to resume the hobby. :)

 
When I consider how my light is spent

Ere half my days in this dark world and wide,

And that one Talent which is death to hide

Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent

To serve therewith my Maker, and present

My true account, lest He returning chide,

"Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?"

I fondly ask. But Patience, to prevent

That murmur, soon replies, "God doth not need

Either man's work or his own gifts. Who best

Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state

Is kingly: thousands at his bidding speed,

And post o'er land and ocean without rest;

They also serve who only stand and wait."

John Milton

At 5:28 am you leave, and by 10:40 am you are back!!!!!

Sorry to see you go, but it's great to have you back :)

Stay in touch, your knowledge and input is appreciated by many.

 
OMG, a Milton man! Well, Luke, good luck; look in on us now and then for old time's sake and be cheered by these more optimistic lines from the Blind Poet:

And now the Sun had stretch'd out all the hills,

And now was dropt into the Western bay;

At last he rose, and twitch'd his Mantle blew:

To morrow to fresh Woods, and Pastures new.

"Lycidas" J.M.
