I'm not going anywhere bud, still will crunch, post, and be around. Won't be as much as in my glory days but I'm not leaving my family behind. :toast:

Congrats, Norton! Now Captain Norton!!

CP, you were and always will be 'Da Man!' Sad to see you go but Happy that you are growing into your own career.

Norton is a very capable next step in the Captaincy.

I am extremely happy for you both!

TPU could not be the best, without the best in charge!

Well, ION was already an assistant captain...

Correct... He's tied up with school atm (2nd yr engineering studies are a challenge) but should be back soon.

As far as assisting the Team... we all assist each other on a daily basis. We are all Team assistants.

Thanks again for all the kind words fellas! Norton and ION can change their titles accordingly since I have changed mine already. Ion gladly took the assistant captain slot.
