I'm Sick

The three of us have been out of commission since Saturday afternoon.  It started as a nasty chest cold.  Now, I'm starting to get flu symptoms.  I feel like I've been beat with a tire iron.  At the moment, it's all I can do to put a rational sentence  together, let alone a series of posts.  There have been a number of very important stories that have come across the wire in the last couple of days that I've wanted to talk about, so I'll do my best to post when I can.  Keep checking back regularly.  Thanks.
