Tim -- Hope to make it to Belmont, might even have a new SWK for the occasion.

Michael -- Man, if I was you (a physically imposing guy and clan elder, for those who haven't had the pleasure of meeting him,) I just would have just said "As the Chieftain of my Clan I beg to differ." I am sure that would have had him mumbling some lame apology. As it is, I definitely need a snappier come back, but one that won't have my mouth writing checks that my **** can't cash.

Tonight, after my martial arts class, I am changing into my UK to hear Caliban play at Pickwick's Pub in Concord. I am sure the guys in my class are going to rib me, but the last time I went see them play at the same venue, there was a guy there in his UK (reported that he owns 12, and wears them after work,) and I want to show support.

Best regards,

Jake
