Yesterday was a zoo.  I planned to take a brief morning nap and catch up on comments here before leaving for the prison.  Then I learned that a hacker got to the hosting provider the non-profit I work with uses, and trashed all the web sites there including ours.  We are far too small and broke to afford a real Webmaster, so I\u2019m it.  I was still trying to unravel the mess when it was time to leave for the prison.  The meetings were productive, lasting later than usual, so I did not get home until late.  At this point, I\u2019ve only slept a couple hours, so today I\u2019m only posting one article in addition to the open thread.  Then I\u2019m going back to bed.  My schedule is open until mid-week next week, so if not today, I shall surely catch up on replying to comments here and visiting blogs this weekend.<\/p>\n

Today, the Jig Zone puzzle never came, so I went and got it.  I\u2019m not sure how long the link will work.  It took me 4:14.  I should be easy to beat.  To do it, Click Here<\/a>.  How did you do?<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s your cartoon:<\/p>\n
