OK, Flag Folks. You've got one last checking-in email from me. As I mentioned, the Flag heads to Canada in a few days -- any and all chants and dances in support of a safe landing are appreciated -- and then it's back, plaguing nutters and drummers alike all over the world.
If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to let me know.
Get ready to kick Stewart's ass, Copelandia!
