Vacation

1. I have started to see "vacay" in popular usage. Stop. Please, please stop. I'd prefer not to go postal on everyone.
   
   
2. Between deadlines at work, moving, and Hurricane Earl (I'm flying on Friday), I think various pressures have been trying to get me to take a vacation from this blog. I will obliged. See you next Tuesday when hopefully I'll be back in New York in a fully unpacked apartment...
