Amen, cubreporter. I mentioned his party affiliation solely out of affection for him and the joke he and I share about it. Trying to find something that will bring a knowing smile to his face when he gets a chance to read this.

Again, thanks to all of you who have offered up your prayers. They are greatly appreciated.

Take care.
