Sorry to hear about your ACL. I hope it'll heal to the point where you can do as you please with your knee and that you'll be able to lift weights as usual.

Still in Colo. Spgs. and things are going well, keeping busy, etc. I stopped competing between 2003 and 2006, not for any particular reason, just didn't feel like it. But of course continued to train. Then I got into Power Sport (strict curl, bench press, deadlift, all raw) and did quite well, winning two nationals, coming in second at the pro level, and setting a bunch of American Records. Haven't competed since last March and don't see myself doing so again for a while. Again, no particular reason, just don't feel like it. But am still training and having tons of fun with that.
