I'm here -- still trying to catch up with email, which I was a week behind as of last night. Oops.
I was wondering why you didn't reply to my invitation to meet Paris Hilton and me for a drink on Tuesday.
BTW, thanks for the link that launched a thousand hits, so to speak.
Admit it, you read Lileks this morning and said "Damn, that is what I was going to say, only better."
Take your time, you always provide an interesting opinion.
