Editor's Note

WNU Editor: Big birthday party for mom today. She is turning 84, and (to our amazement) is still in excellent health. Postings will be very light today, normal postings will resume tomorrow.

Update Sunday Morning 6:45 AM: Terribly hungover right now. Word of advice to all of my readers .... DO NOT compete with a bunch of Russians when it comes to drinking .... you will lose. In my case, I am a glass of wine type of of guy (once in a while), or a beer if it is hot outside. These limits were completely breached last night/early morning, putting me into the semi-comatose state that I am in right now.

What is worse, is that two of my colleagues who contribute posts to this blog are in worse shape than I am in right now .... or at least that is what I saw when I took the taxi to get home this morning.

Groaaaannnn .... regular blogging will resume when I get up some time later this afternoon.

Thankyou Marcase for your comment.

Party is just starting. I predict great amount of drinking. Great food. Birthday cake. Singing and cheer. Followed by all of us watching the Montreal - Washington hockey game in which the Canadiens are going to destroy the Capitals .... followed again with a great amount of drinking, singing and cheer.

Happy Birthday to your Mom -- and best wishes for many more.

As for you, well, the best graphic representation of a "Hangover" that I've ever seen is this photo:

I have a framed copy hanging in my bathroom, just as a reminder.

Enjoy!

Thank you Clayton for your pic.

It brought a smile to my aching head.
