aunt phil and i are leaving for cancun sunday afternoon and won't return until the following sunday afternoon. i don't think it would be fair if i came up with the "obscurity of obscurities" and left you guys hanging for over a week with no feedback to your input. nick, i'm going to pass the torch to shell this time and will earn my spot back after our return...

shell, you go girl...
