back to the gls

Some people like to call all sorts of states "the midwest". I'm from Michigan, which is close to the center if you're thinking east-west, but it borders on Canada in the north. I prefer to call my state and the others bordering the great lakes, the great lake states.

That was a long prelude to my out-of-blogspace message. I'll be back in Minneapolis for a few days attending a conference and my bizzy schedule doesn't leave a lot of computer time.

I know, boo hoo and all of that. In the meantime, please amuse yourselves with either:
