I know it is. Mine just sucks right now, and it has for about the past 6 to 8 weeks.
My son and I are going on vacation in a little over 2 weeks. I'm sure his mother will try to throw a wrench in the works once she finds out about it. I plan on letting her know about a week in advance (which happens to be a couple of days before the trial). She doesn't let me know ahead of time when she is going to take the kids out of state. I can't wait to get away. I'll be more than ready for it. He and I will be leaving 3 days after the trial.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
