<br /><br />Been flat on my back either with food poisoning or stomach flu today.  Had breakfast took Roe to the airport felt a little crappy then, but when I got home it hit big time.  Just got a glass of milk down and feel a little better, but am not going to Men&#39;s bilble study tonight.  Got to work through this.  I have an AARP Instructor Candidate class tomorrow, all day.  And, since I just wrote the course there is no one else to stand in.  Worst case, I&#39;ll do the first couple of hours and then one of my Trainers can take over after they get the hang of what I&#39;m doing.<br /><br />Roe had tears in her eyes at the airport and kept saying she did not want to go back to Stanford.  It was hard to walk away, perhaps that&#39;s what brought on this attack in my gut.  It just tears you up when someone you love needs help and you can&#39;t help.  Jenn, I know that is exactly how you feel about your Mom.  God bless and bring both of you comfort.<br /><br />MaryLou:  Just don&#39;t pick up anything that looks like a coiled rope, my BIL was reaching for what he thought was rope when the Rattler went for him.  I used my .22 target rifle with a peep sight and got him on the first shot through the head.  My parents never complained about the time I spent on the gun club target range after that.  This was in a garage at my Uncles&#39; hunting lodge in the mountains of Western Pennsylvania.  I&#39;d never seen a Rattler before, but sure saw a lot of them at Ft. Bragg, NC.  Special Forces (Green Berets) were called &quot;Snake Eaters&quot;, back in the day.  It was one of the things we had to do for survival training.  Guess what, tastes just like chicken.<br /><br />Kevin:  I&#39;m sure you know by now that a local boy won the NASCAR race yesterday.  Kyle Busch.  I don&#39;t really follow the races, but they make a big splash in the local newspaper this AM.<br /><br />Will check in later,<br /><br /><br /><br />
