At lesat you haven't had your name in the paper several times in the last few weeks; we made a SLIGHT error in testing...at least we were honest in reporting it, which many do not.
This has been the most horrible year (professionally); two years and I'm a retiree.
Love you,
Mom

Oh, don't I know that feeling. My sympathies.

Hang in there man... By the way, seeing as I will have a few weeks off in August, I was wondering if you would mind if I came and visited for a few days. Not even over a weekend or anything. I should have some free time after August 11th until the beginning of September. I was thinking about doing the somewhat austere thing and just riding the Ducati to Michigan in a "Motorcycle Diaries" kind of way (without the Spanish, of course). Anyway, let me know. You can email or post, either way. Take care...
