Apologies for the limited blogging, but unfortunately my father suffered a serious trauma last Thursday and we are awaiting word on whether he needs surgery later this week. Thanks to those who know about this and are offering their prayers and well-wishes. Perhaps if all this turns out OK I'll write about the experience, and perhaps if it doesn't I'll write about it as a form of therapy. Until then there may be little to read here.

Then again, if my dad doesn't need surgery this week, my wife is taking the kids to see her family for awhile and I may have a lot of time on my hands.

Only Time, that miserable bastard, will tell.
