Great another lesson. Has the regular day changed for these from Wednesday to Tuesday now.

Also, has there been a winner announced from January’s Mailbag contest? :smile:

The best remedy is to go back to bed. :) I must admit that I’m a little apprehensive regarding this issue on my upcoming visit to Ukraine. I don’t drink vodka straight and usually mix it about half with juice. The Ukrainians will probably think I’m a “girly-man”! :mrgreen:
