Sounds like the kitchen Klatch could use a vacation... Don't hear much from ebbie these days, and Elmer is off somewhere stalking the WereHare. Anybody seen Wallace and Gromit and The Curse Of The WereHare? That soudns like just what I need tonight. I could use a few laughs, myself.

You know, it's funny to think of it but we all need vacations, even after we're retired and it would seem like life is just one endless vacation. But sometimes, it's just important to step away from all the daily grind when it becomes larger than life. That's what we'll be doing this Friday. I've tucked the Gospel Messengers away for the summer, and after the first weekend in July, I'll be free of any commitments to both of the male choruses that I sing in. I sense the strong need for stepping back in many of the folks here on the Cat, and in my non-cyber life as well.

When you can't step back, sit down and have a cup of coffee...
