By the time you’re reading this, barring car trouble or some catastrophe, Kathy and I are in Arkansas visiting my family. It’s likely that we’re being encouraged to move there, or to hit up a cousin for a job (or a kiss), or to explain why Kathy’s not twice-over pregnant already, or to reveal our gray roots, or to cook our Boca burgers this way, and not that; it’s equally likely that we’re having a grand time in spite of my suspicions to the contrary. Whatever does or doesn’t happen, we’ll have a full report soon after we return (and an early one for Chris and Mary on Monday morning). In the meantime, C/hris and M/ary, J/eremy and T/racy, Laura, Mick, and all three of the rest of you readers, may your Christmas be filled with love, may your table be topped with tofu or turkey, may you find peace this day and the next, and may your vacation give you time to listen!
