This time I've got a better-than-usual excuse for missing the Chat line. Nancy and I are going to hear a presentation made by a local veterinarian -- that ran in and finished the 2009 Iditarod sled dog race. He's a friend, too -- so I'll have good stories to tell, tomorrow, of what he says it's like to stare at the hind-end of a bunch of dogs for 1,100 miles. But the presentation is at 7PM EDT -- we won't be home during the chat. Oh, well -- as usual, don't say anything too scurrilous about me.
