I can't believe Mt Olympus has been aflame all week without me!

For the record, Bruce, I don't think you should give up. Be yourself! Even if it means you were Guest #1. As I look this thread over, and some of the others referred to, I see that the Olympians are mostly being themselves, with the usual predictable responses. It is comforting, the sameness.

BTW, your girlfriend could have gotten a diggerido from The House of Musical Traditions, which I enjoyed immensely along with the rest of my trip to DC last week. Please don't go, or come back soon!
