HI All,

Still kickin' as the thread says. My how the time has flown! Been real busy getting ready for classes...and having lots of issues around finding an office...last offer was a shared hovel with four other nameplates on the door.

In terms of R...things sre going pretty well. We had one morning of , not "all the way"... (that would be Sept '03) but nice. That was about a month ago

Other than that CJ and I are getting along very well, making masterful feasts, enjoyed watching the Olympics. The "summer" here lasted all of three weeks...it's been dipping into the 40's (for you Americans) at night, hovering in the 50's in the day...

My basil died, so no pesto this year.

Well that's enough, my intent was to catch up with a few of you today!

Shiny
