Well folkses and friendses, I know you won't believe me (especially since there is a triple precious near) but here is a truth.

I have not read the last 1000 posts nor had opportunity to, for the past five days, because I was in the hospital. After catching up from the trip to Texas early Tuesday AM I went out to water the garden. An hour later I was in the Emergency Room suffering a heart attack. Short version, mild attack, one large artery, partial blockage, very close call with a blood clot, one stint Wed. AM. Came home this morning feeling pretty good and so happy to be around to sprint for the precious with all of you.

Oh bummer! Well I'm glad it was "mild" and glad you're still with us. Take it easy, okay? BTW....have you watched the DVD yet?

Wow! Welcome back, and glad to have you!

I know how scary a sudden health emergency like that can be. I'm just glad to hear that you're doing well. I trust the prognosis is good?

Wow - I am glad it was mild and that you are OK - Happy to hear that you are feeling pretty good and can join us again!

Are we supposed to let you win the precious now?

Wow. Take care of yourself. I know those episodes can be scary. Coupla months ago I spent 7 hours (and several thousand dollars worth of test) in an ER with chest pains. They didn't find anything. My doctor thought it's probably acid reflux. And after waking up at 2:30 a.m. today with indigestion, I'm thinking he's probably right (supreme pizza last night...silly me).

Glad your back. Sit back and enjoy the movie.
