I’m sorry for the extended absence; between a nasty stomach virus (the 8-20 day kind) and a healthy pile of work, I was a pretty quiet boy last week. I’m pressed for time this morning, so any update is going to have to wait until this afternoon, unfortunately.

I leave you here with a picture of my father-in-law’s new posessions: a stack of airplane magazines from the late 30’s, featuring vivid color covers, bare-knuckled serial tales of air pirates, dogfights, and adventure, balsa wood kit plans, and grainy pictures of exotic airplanes. Simply beautiful.
