Gone to Texas

It is something of an irritation to be the preeminent mechanical genius on the planet and still wind up with a flight delay in St. Louis due to unspecified "mechanical issues". Nevertheless, I will be spending the new year's holiday in the company of my family, and should be back sometime Tuesday. I fear that there may be viewing of scrapbooks and other "hilarious" blackmail material from my younger years. Scott, if my mother brings out the home videos, can I enter her into the threat database?

For those of you I won't see, happy 2010 2008. The Year Of No Goddamn Dinosaurs.
