I want to thank everybody who's been posting for the last few days, as I've been lolling on my death bed sick bed. I should be back to posting, commenting, and editing a little more consistently now...

#19  We have been good to your site while you were in sick bay. We did not even require a substitute teacher. We are almost self-maintaining units; we can steer a course, but we can't set a heading. Get well soon!

#18  Get well soon Fred. My wife and I both had it at the same time last year. I'd rather be involved in a prison riot. It was ugly...

#6  ^(^$#$%#*&, missed another opportunity to post Dr. Shugart's patented remedy for what ails you: a half-cup 100-proof bourbon, a third-cup lemon juice, and two tablespoons honey, heated until it's almost too warm to drink. Drink a third of it at bedtime, wrap up in a washable blanket, and sleep. Reheat, and drink another third when you wake up, 14 hours later. Take the last third only if necessary, and ONLY after wringing out the ten gallons of sweat from the blanket. While it may have absolutely no curative powers whatsoever, for 36 hours, you don't care!
