Yes, I am still alive.

Rachel is recovering from croup, I went deer hunting (damn the whitetails and their stealth technology) and work keeps mysteriously appearing on my desk (who knew?).

The good news is, I am a Tom-Certified Grade-A read.

Many thanks!

Though the "over the top" thing is a bit of a head-scratcher. And Tom's Venture has seen better days, from recent accounts.
