It is the end of another week; we are looking forward to the weekend. My wife is having a surgical procedure shortly, and I will be out of the office for a week or so to help with her recovery. So, I will be doing the Daily Update on Monday, and then the rest of the week, I have invited a few "guest hosts." So, keep watching for more exciting things, and for a few days with a different point of view - which is always a good thing.
