Bob, this time I told the truth!
While backing out of the garage at 08:35, I noticed the right front tire was totally flat. Removed the wheel and headed for BIG-O Tires, of course they were closed, did find an Auto Zone open and bought a tire plug kit. On the way home saw a small tire repair shop open, he found the valve stem seal leaking at the rim. Drove home,put wheel back on, drove to Ahwatukee to pick up co-pilot/navigator Chuck and drove like a bat-outa-hell to catch up with you guys and glad you were all still there chowing down when we arrived.
Hey, it wasn't a 14 second pit stop but all-in-all, 55 minutes late wasn't bad!

I think I've got a better excuse than some wuss saying, "I thought it was gonna be cold!"
