I failed to mention that on Thursday I was waiting for an elevator along with several people carrying armfuls of large foam rubber hands with the forefinger extended (you know, in the "We're #1!" signal) and other piles of "thumbs up" hands, like the ones you might buy at a baseball game or something. It was mildly unsettling even before I knew what they were advertising.

So when are you coming to visit me? :)
