ok, here's the deal: we're leaving for florida tomorrow morning at 0 dark hundred so it would be unfair to leave you all guessing throughout the weekend with no feedback from me as to where i might be; ergo, i'm going to let badnick take my turn and hope that he remembers me when he's in this type of jam...
i'll be back, hopefully, sunday evening...
