PM sent . . .

(excerpt for the other NYC folks: )

In fact, I am in NYC tonight (and tomorrow night). . .

The bummer is that I have been absolutely and totally swamped with deadlines at work . . . among the travel for customer meetings, I've got a lot of education material to write, review and get to the printer by end of next week, so I have had to curtail all social activities

(Reminds me of when I was in college, and went home for the weekend . . . my Dad usually sent me off with something like ". . . and don't let your studies interfere with your social life . . . " (I usually had a VERY distinct feeling that he was speaking tongue in cheek.))

I am really bummed out by this . . . but I do expect to be back up this way sometime in the next few months, and chances are excellent that the situation will be MUCH better then.

(Saddest) Regards,
Mark
