Next Great American Novel

I was hoping to have the next great American novel ready to post by this time.  However, I'm getting delayed.   I've had a little back trouble and while in the process of finding out what was wrong with my back, we learned I had an aneurysm. 

So, I reckon I have to go into the aneurysm garage and get mine fixed.  I might be away for a little while.  I go into the garage on Thursday morning.  With some heavenly blessing, I should be discharged over the weekend. 

You guys behave yourself while I'm gone.
