Here's really good news.  NOT!  The flu season is just around the corner. You know what that means.  It's time to think about getting that flu shot.

I've been off-the-air and out for the past couple of days.  Not because I wanted to, but because of disease. I'm sick.  That virus/cold/sore throat/hit-by-a-truck, disease that I was sure I was immune to, (everybody was getting it, but not I) hit me.
