    I am such a doof! I never commented on this! HOW COOL!!! I am eagerly anticipating the pictures. I did not realize you got a medal for each one. Heck, in my opinion, you deserve to have them pinned on your chest on the steps of the Congress or something.

    I love you guys. Doesn't matter how totally sucky and psycho my work gets, I can come home and drink 1/2 bottle of wine, turn on the computer and read thread drift. My faith in humanity returns.

    You guys rock. You are as cool as my bike. And my dog. (who poops on the floor when he gets anxious, but we won't mention that.)

    I discovered another horrifying problem: we don't have the DVDs for those two movies. Popped off an Amazon order and they should be here early next week. The boys will be on their own as I will be in Springfield, MO for the week. Since Andrew can pretty much hold his own with Bubba for movie quotes, I dread to think what's going to happen when I get back.

    The barbie is hot. Maybe MP can supply the chocolate.

    And the Tour is pretty sweet on that big 'ol screen.
