Well, last week's show ended with a segment without notes, and while I actually enjoyed doing it entirely off the cuff, this week's show has no notes prepared for it because the last week at work has been awfully hectic. So, despite the fact that I've got a number of things to talk about on the show, I'm going to postpone the show for a week and cover everything and more next Sunday. Until then - have another great week!
