Well John, I flew halfway across the country, had dinner and drinks with family, went to bed, got up and went to an all day party with college friends, drinking and eating, passed out late that night, got up the next morning and visited with family, got back on a plane and flew home. I could have checked Wordie that night, but I was too tired, so come Monday evening, I was something like 1000 posts behind.
