    This is a little odd, I know - but hey. I'm awesome, and I do odd things.

    I'm making my first ever* lenten sacrifice. My greatest vice is, arguably, surfing/posting online. So I'm giving it all up for lent. That means no Facebook, Twitter, Google Chat (this excludes work, of course) or, sadly, SP.

    See you in a month, suckaz. :wave:

    * No, I'm not catholic, but I like the idea.

    It's not like DR is gonna give up anything REALLY tough, like sex!

    Me, I'm gonna follow DRs lead and not bad mouth my ex for Lent. THAT'LL be a real difficult sacrifice! I may not survive it.

    You should visit the Philippines during the Lent... some people go as far as carrying a huge cross on their back, whipping their own backs 'til they bleed and nailing themselves on the cross as an affirmation of the their faith.

    That sounds like exactly what the Dunphys did on last night's episode of 'Modern Family".

    See you all for a while - not permanently or anything. I'm taking little man to Disney World next week (the wife's coming too, but the vacation is obviously Jack directed), and the only time I'll be at a computer is to check my work e-mail, and probably won't do that all that often either. Peace out!

    Jack had a blast.

    HB - how old are your kids? Coming from the distance you are, you'd probably want to wait at least long enough that both of them could remember it, and obviously big enough to ride most of the rides. (The magic number seems to be 40 inches... which I guess is about exactly one meter. Once you're that tall you can get on all but the most intense rides.) Jack is just a hair over 40 inches, and the only ride in the entire Magic Kingdon he wasn't tall enough to get on was Space Mountain - not that I think that ride is appropriate for a 3-year old anyway.

    Going to Yosemite on Sunday and coming back the following Saturday. I'll have a laptop but probably won't use it much. Later haters.
