Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the word of the day; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....

What Maine adventure?
To: RikaStrom
Good morning Miss Rika. I was out of town (down on the Mexican border in Mission, TX) and without access to the internet all of last week. And yesterday, when I got back to work, my docking station went haywire and wouldn't allow my computer to boot up. And today, after getting a new docking station, my computer kept locking up and requiring a reboot. So my absences and this morning's tardiness are all excused. Do you need a note from anyone for all this?
