I'm hitting the road for the day, going to Detroit to have a little reunion dinner with an old student of mine. It's a 3 hour drive, but since I haven't seen him in 15 years, during which time he has graduated from Harvard Law School, joined a firm, gotten married and is now on the verge of fatherhood, I think it's well worth the drive to have a chance to get caught up with him.

Have a marvelous time renewing old friendships. Hurry back honey.
