Cool, Dee! I've got 'em crossed, candles lit, salt over the shoulder and will make an animal sacrifice for you this afternoon to boot! It'll most likely be a meal moth worm since there seems to be a certain lot of corn with a sudden flurry of activity around it.

(my desk pic seems to have taken on a life of it's own )

It has. I've seen it in a number of Google searches so far today.

Thanks for you kind thoughts and good wishes. Perhaps I'll offer up a meat offering on the gas grill this weekend just to be on the safe side.

Day two at one of the FedEx stations I'm visiting...babysitting a recent software upgrade.

Things were going well, so I decided to cruise the shop floor. Thought I'd peek inside the engine compartment of one of those Freightliner vans.




These were diesel-powered Mercedes vehicles. I saw two different engine configurations...sorry for the pic quality...

G-Benz, nice. I am a day late but not a drama short. Almost finished with a ginormous Power Point presentation and....I 1/2 installed an external hard drive on the Death Star freaking 1394B fire wire cords....have to buy a different one...

The first hump day in my new job finds me scrambling. I'm busier than I've been in many months, but it feels pretty good.

Setting up home office today, and trying organize my territory into bite-sized pieces.

If there's time, I'm getting the TD inspected so I can get some tags for it.
