How old?

How old are kids when they don't think dad is cool anymore?

What the what?

Serendipitous Pneumothorax and the Birt-Hogg-Dubé Syndrome.


The only thing I know about the above is that Jay's summary and poster presentation of whatever it is brought us to Denver a few weeks ago. And it was so much fun! (Thanks to Carol and Hazen for watching the kids - wheeee!)

Sitting in on the poster presentations (for about an hour - then I went shopping) was like listening to a different language. I caught a few things here and there, and I think I'd prefer to remain blissfully ignorant. There are some wacky diseases out there!

Speaking of...


Let me tell you, Denver is a classy place. I mean, where else will you find a baby announcement on a "Gentlemen's Club" sign?


Or an enormous 40-foot bear peeking in on your conference center?


(In case you need some perspective, I'm 5'2". I know you thought I was taller, but I look short next to the bear.)


Proud of you, Jay! Now get another poster accepted so we can go to San Francisco next year!!!
