As a freelance writer, I usually work alone and in silence, with nobody around to pat me on the back every once in a while and say something encouraging about my labors. It is a heart-warming thing to know that all of the work I have poured into The Rap Sheet, and that other contributors have poured in as well, has been widely appreciated. Thank you, everyone, for your generous support.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />JeffJ.
