I’m going to be gone again this week. This time I’ll be going to Maryland and having fun. Ha!
I should be back after next weekend.

There’s an interesting story here about a former executioner in French Algeria, in which he talks about his experiences. Be sure to check out the “See also:” links on the top right of the page, including the one about drunken hangmen (one of which attempted to hang a priest by mistake, it seems).
