Hey, just to let you know, my laptop suffered a major stroke the day before yesterday... ("Files on my hard drive? No... and what is this 'operating system' you speak of?")

Somehow the computer can't find the partition on the HD that holds like, all the information on the thing.  So I have a guy coming in to look at it today. We're going to make it better. Stronger. Faster.  And hopefully a lot less stupid. And for less than six million dollars!

Plus we're in the midst of an ongoing family tragedy, that's taking some time... My wife's grandmother fell and hit her head in the nursing home she was in, and is in a coma that they don't expect her to wake from...

And her uncle (who has Down's Syndrome) has vegetation in his heart valves, and low blood count... they're thinking leukemia.  

And this has all been in the last 36 hours.  OY.

So if I'm out of touch for a while, you know why.
