Two to five times a day. Oh, the dashed hopes!

Craig, I was beginning to think you worked for the government---the only other place I know where an estimated 1 day for a job regularly turns into a week...

Well, I knew it was going to be delayed, I was in constant contact with Craig, and I STILL was checking at least 3 times a day. I had Conspiracy Theories flying around left right and centre with the Fantasy Land crowd and I started to formulate some myself. But we are back and that is ALL that matters!!!

Well, I have a full time job and a 1 yr old, so I get about as much work done on this site as your standard govt. worker, eh?
