Weekend Discussion: Until We Meet Again

by Chris Faylor, Jun 26, 2010 5:00am PDT

Friends and Colleagues,

As you may know, I'm stepping away from the day-to-day affairs of Shacknews to pursue other opportunities--specifically, what I hope will lead to a career in teaching.

The good news, though, is I'm not going away entirely. After three and a half years or so, I just couldn't just abandon you folks, so I'll still be around to contribute news, previews, and reviews on occasion, not to mention lurking about in Latest Chatty.

Come Monday, you'll meet our newest full-time staffer, whom I hope you'll be nice to.

So until we meet again, take care, and don't forget to hack the planet, okay?

Okay, somebody answer me this: Why does my ankle hurt when I swim? I usually swim about a mile, and it seems like my ankle starts getting sore after about 10 laps. I don't know if I'm just kicking too much or what.

    It's kind of below and in front of the "ankle bulge", sort of on the top of the foot. It doesn't get swollen or red that I've noticed. I run from time to time and do various leg-related weight-lifting things, but I've never really had it feel like that otherwise.
