Rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated. - Mark Twain

In February, Smart Retorts will resume! It was unfortunately necessary to take a brief amount of time off to take care of a little work. But things are now well under control and are back to normal.

In February, of course, will be Valentine's Day, the month of Love.

It's good to have love in your heart. Don't need any hate.

That's why, even though a certain columnist has been banished to the P Section (where he most certainly belongs), I will restart and resume the Smart Retorts blog in full force coupled with an advertising campaign of immense proportion. Alright, just kidding. But I will restart it (did I get your hopes up?).

I caught a few retorts in my absense which brought a smile to this old man's face. If you consider 30's old, that is. Of course, I would think that someone in their early thirties is young and ready to have a lot of fun with life. Que sera sera.

But enough.

On with the show.
