I don't think the sea gets there.

Go north.

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...

I would love to accept this honor, but here's my similar dilemna.

I'm leaving early tomorrow for Ohio to attend my niece's wedding and won't be back until late Sunday. I'm staying at my uncle's house where almost certainly there won't be internet service. My guess is I'll be offline after tonight until Sunday night.

In light of this double wammy, I hearby pass the baton back to Ocm?

Ocm? bud, if for some reason this doesn't sit well with you, let's just take a break until Sunday night. It seems to me that only a few of us are in this game on a regular basis and now unc and I will both be out for a couple days. As you wish.
