So I don't forget later, have a safe and happy trip. We'll miss you later this week. :-)

Sounds great! At least my wife is coming home this weekend so my life can RESTART again!
I'll miss being here. Y'all just have fun!
Yay for you. Glad she's coming home...that is from Thailand, right? I love going there. It is a beautiful countty..and so interesting.
You're right...but coming out early can make an extra $10-12 million for a top back like Reggie. I think we have to accept that many top college football programs are the NFL's "minor leagues". The AVERAGE working life of an NFL running back is only 7 years; an extra year playing in college is like taking all the risk without the paychecks. So...it's understandable.
Yep, 28 LOONNGG days in Thailand. She's flying back to Bangkok as we speak to stay with her brother and hit the credit card shopping, since most of the time was spent with her extended family in the NE part of the country. It is a very beautiful country ... and we're building our guest house as Phase 1 of my retirement plan...we've got that construction going.
We've done our best to keep you busy and distracted, but having life go back to 'normal' is unbeatable. :-)
We won't fuss if you're late on Monday. ;-)
Hope you get everything done on time. And that you both have a great reunion on Sunday. Have something special planned for dinner? Curbside at Outback?
Prayers for a safe and easy trip home for Sue... (great name!).

Tkae great notes and fill us in on all the good stuff you saw, did and heard when you come back next week. :-)

Bolton is amazing. I'd love to study at his dojo. To be so controlled, so confident and so smart!!!
He's one of my heros. :-)

What was the call about?
Her Thai name is Suphit, so Sue seemed a good Anglicized version. Normal IS REALLY necessary.
Dinner will probably be pizza. After you've flown 30 hours you really don't like to go out at all. I've done it about 15 times and it's really tough. Save the Special Dinner for Mother's Day.
It was basically a black guy who had a tough time but overcame adversity and was his story about how America was the greatest country where he could overcome adversity.
Good morning..just came in on the tail end of discussion about Marines in Iran? Am I missing something? Isn't it to be expected that we have intel working in Iran?

30 hours. Ugh, I wouldn't come out of the house for a week!
I have a friend who lives in India. She would fly 23 hours to visit her mom in Ann Arbor every year and invariably would call me to go to lunch the next day. I don't know how she did it. It wears me out just to think about it.
Hope the jet lag clears quickly for your wife. :-)

No disagreement. Some schools like Penn State emphasize the education. But the level of educational failure in a lot of the draftees goes much further back than college; as you point out, some of them can hardly be said to have passed the 3rd grade. You can lead the horse to water...but, ......
