The weather was really unseasonably nice and warm. The only downside was the RAF playing with their new toys overhead. Those new Eurofighters are damn loud. ---

I’m thinking of declaring **Ruby** awol at noon, which would be 36 hours of no presence on the board – just so we can mop this puppy up before the weekend. So Reds, go ahead and start throwing out ideas. I don’t celebrate Easter, so I’ll be around this weekend – should I go ahead and start a new round tomorrow, or wait for Monday? ---
