So long and thanks for all the fish.

Dear Newbeetle.org

After an appropriate period of deliberation, I have come to the decision to
tender my resignation as admin, effective today, July 9th.

I thank you sincerely for the good times we've shared over the past eight years;
it has been a journey that has provided me a lot of memories to think on in retirement.

As such, I have decided to become a professional pirate. It has always been a
dream of mine to live the life of a swashbuckling corsair, beholden to none and
master of all I survey. Once my crew of unabashed rogues is assembled, we shall
take to the capacious expanse of the high seas to pursue fortune, fame, and
hair-raising adventure.

Our path may not be filled with the porcine comforts being an admin provides,
but we shall nonetheless move forward to carve a name for ourselves in the annals
of bold insurgency and death-defying derring-do. Once I have a keen blade at my hip
and the Jolly Roger is flapping high above me, I believe I will find my true calling.

Please note that I am currently accepting applications for First Officer, if
you are at all interested in applying. I will provide a full medical and dental
plan, which will offer immediate coverage of all maladies other than scurvy and
the occasional bout of rickets.

Sincerely

[CoriBug]

Thanks for all your hard work! The site wouldn't be here if not for you.

I was looking for something just like this to say. Best of luck as you move on. Say hello to the Dolphins. I assume you are leaving with them? :-)
