Well, glad to see you didn't blow far away into another country! Hopefully they'll keep you moored here in the US!

Tom and I are both away on vacation for a few days (albeit separately, for those folks with the crafty minds!).  I'll be monitoring email occasionally but may be delayed responding.  Back late Wednesday night.

Gone for a week, and I spent much of the first day languishing at KLAS while SWA mechanical'd one airplane and kicked us all off, then it was eleven hours before actually getting airborne again. Now I've always liked Vegas, but I'd prefer not to spend my time in the airport. I should have used that time to get a tattoo saying "NEVER travel during Christmas week!!  8)

Out of the country on vacation with my family 2/13-2/21.  No computer with me, and not sure how much electronic access I'll have.  Which, since I'll be playing on the beach with my kids, should really be "none" :) ! Tom's in charge.  As usual, if you are going to raise a ruckus, clean up after yourselves, no recordable incidents regarding livestock, and make sure the cops and the New York Times don't find out about it....  Mark, per your request, I've upgraded the Knob Creek in my liquor cabinet to Knob Creek Select.  I'm no longer naive enough to think that you guys won't raid it....  Just don't fill the empty bottles with that cheap sh*t and try to hoodwink me into thinking you didn't....   :)

All, note that Tom and I will both be out of the office on travel 15-23 April.  Both of us will have limited email access during that time, so our time to respond may be a bit longer than usual, but we'll do our best to reply as quickly as possible.

Um, but not together. I mean, we work closely 'n' all that, but not THAT close.

I'll be away on travel 6/29-30.  I'll respond as quickly as I can, though it may be July 1 (or later).   Please make sure you send routine support requests through the ticket system, NOT via email, as they'll normally get handled faster, especially when I'm away.

I'll then be away on vacation, celebrating both summer and the freedoms of our country, with my family from 02 - 10 Jul.  Tom will be away much of that time as well.  Just realize that our normal "lickety-split" response times might be diminished a bit during that time.  All the best for a safe, healthy and happy Independence Day!  Please remember those that have served, and continue to serve, to protect the freedoms that we and our loved ones enjoy.

If we didn't, with the crap we deal with on a too-regular basis, we'd be in straight jackets!

Away on vacation to Niagara Falls with the family tonight through Monday night.  No computer with me.  Don't get caught doing anything illegal, immoral, or that your grandmother would disapprove of!

Away on business travel 04-10 Sep.  Ira's in the hot seat.  Talk about learning to swim by being thrown in the deep end!  Don't get caught doing the things you usually do while I'm away, don't do anything so bad to make Ira quit, and don't seduce him into joining into doing the things you usually do while I'm away (particularly those "things" involving the livestock!)....
