It's been a while since I had to do this so I'd better explain: There's a widespread Internet Custom that no one but me practices. When you're swamped with Things To Do…when you're busier than John Travolta's legal staff and you won't be blogging at our usual pace, you put up a picture of can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup. This is a clear and well-understood way to tell the world, "I'm busy! I won't be posting when you might expect me to be posting!" I will be back in a day or three when things calm down…or when I have to post a sudden obit, whichever occurs first. Aloha!
