it's like the eye of a duck

I think I'd be hard-pressed not to take him out back and have him shot after that. Sometimes, you really need to just stay home, although some people just don't seem to realize that. Good luck with the vitamin c and echinacea and rest approach. I was skeptical the first time Chris made me try the mega-mega-vitamin c doses when I was sick, but it really did help. Lots of vitamin c, lots of water, lots of rest. Feel better soon.
