Top 10 Update

I had wanted to post a new post in the Top 10 series yesterday, but real life has a way of intruding. Travel with extended family, fever in the house, and then the AC going out all made the day a little more exciting than I had anticipated. A holiday weekend is as good a time as any for a brief intermission, I suppose. We should get going with the next post later today. (BTW, You can talk about how some women go for Tom Hanks or Leonardo DiCaprio, but for my wife they don’t compare with the man who will come out on a holiday weekend to get the AC going.)

Thanks for the positive feedback on the Top 10 list that I have received. I am glad that some of you are enjoying it.

I hope you are having an enjoyable holiday weekend.
