It is every PAX’s worst nightmare, alarm clock failure of some type and you are late waking up. My alarm woke me up at 05:20 (though YHC is sure it was set for far earlier), usually I would take this as my body telling me something and use it as an opportunity to let my body rest, but not when I have the Q. So I dashed out of bed and to the car and arrived at the AO at 05:32, pleased to see that Tuco had stepped up to start the warmups. Fortunately the PAX was very nice and understanding and no one gave me grief about it.

Ring of fire

TClaps to Tuco and Van Gogh for attending both parts of my two-part Q.

Sorry to the PAX who waited in agony and suspense as 05:30 struck. If you will write your name, DOB, SSN, address, and mother’s maiden name on the back of a twenty dollar bill and give it to me a refund will be issued in 6-8 weeks.

Welcome Matthew Gray who is a 2^nd Lt in the Army, 4^th year med student who went to undergrad with Hedwig. Funny story is that in undergrad he was working on a remote controlled plane and the propeller chopped his thumb almost off – Hedwig took him to hospital where it was saved and you can barely tell now – though his dreams of being a surgeon were dashed. New name is Drone.
