Grand Rounds 3.38

I'm on the road today, literally--driving from Iowa to Ohio with kids and dogs in tow. (Well, okay, not exactly in tow--I do allow them to ride *inside* the car).

Not sure when I'll next have a chance to get online, so I apologize in advance for any comments that get hung up in the junk filter...I'll pull them out as soon as I'm able.
