   I'm glad I thought earlier that life had "returned" to normal (whatever that   
   is )... because now we have a more serious problem here but things look   
   like they will work out... I hope.

   Yes, I see below that you surely do... :(

   I would have said "bumper crop of a--holes" lol  There seem to be a bunch of   
   them around here these days but then Cornell University is in session now  so   
   that makes sense...

   I'm due for the 2nd next week, Ron got his 2nd already.  We won't be doing any   
   traveling for obvious reasons.. not yet.
