Hi Kozicki's.  Well, it's phase 3 of the trips.  The desired Christmas gift is to make this the final trip.  The goal should be that Craig can see the St.Louis Blues play in the Stanley Cup Semi-Finals in the year 2031 (they get eliminated by one of the new NHL teams, the Manitoba Mooseheads).  Shelly, don't fret about staying home this trip.  If you look at the total days you were in NY this year (call it 100 days) and you only miss 2 days...that's a 98% bonding rate with Craig.  Nothing to feel guilty about.  Besides...not like you're not going to call...or blog...or e-mail...or call...or blog...or call...etc.  What student wouldn't take a 98% every time, aye?

Craig, have a smooth trip.  Have a quick trip.  Have a successful trip.  And have the start of a great Holiday period.  Cheers!!!!  And what would X-mas be without the numerous tons of off-the-wall cartoons that float through our e-mail in-boxes...
