[SMCARA] No JOTA event

[Ren Ramirez]

Fellow Members...

I too need to add my "Meo Maxima Culpa" to this as well.  Its a lot of 
my fault as well and without me whining and crying about my crazy life 
on this reflector...I truly DO NOT have a personal leisure segment of 
time.  My current hobbies are driving to and from work and its killing 
me.  Mentally and physically.  Heck, I was even terminated from the 
Permanent Diaconate program because the board felt my horrid commute 
would interfere in the Ministry.  So there.  Anyway, since I just cant 
find employment in my own bloody county, I am SERIOUSLY considering 
going into "load shed" mode.  What loads?  I don't know yet.  but my 
life is preventing me from keeping commitments that I should be able to 
do in support of my community.

I'm sorry.
