The Guiness count will be mitigated by having two 13-year-old girls with me. And the fact that I'm driving. On the wrong side of the road. On the other side of the car. With two 13-year-olds in the backseat doing whatever it is 13-year-olds do. But … the Cliffs of Moher are on the agenda, and I'm leaning toward posting. It's kind of fun. And the thought of being insulted across the ocean is kind of compelling in a quirky kind of way.

Nah, Alan occasionally makes me laugh…Ireland sounds excellent, and the last set of pics from Yellowstone were stunning…I will hold the fort down for you.

The Guinness here will never taste the same to you again, Pat. Be sure to visit the Cliffs of Mohr.

I'd love to see trip updates and photos, but don't base your decision on what we say. It's your vacation and you should spend it however you see fit. Every second spent on this blog is a second you could've been spending finding the bottom of a Guinness pint….

Last time he took a day off – not only did he post – not only did he respond to posts – he responded to blog post responses.

that's the standard we work with here.

When did Yellowstone National Park move to Ireland. Herds of pale red-headed buffalo drinking out of Guinness Lake.

(sniff, sniff), thanks… no, there isn't ANYTHING going on here that is worth checking in for at the rate you do normally.

Aren't you supposed to pass the buck and make an coworker with less tenure do your work while your on vacation anyway?

If you do want to post something before you go: make a couple predictions of what you think will happen while your out and about.

Drew … I should have mentioned we are going to Ireland … that change any thinking?

Your vacation will be my break from Alan. Have a great time Pat!
