C'mon over, Buck! You can be sure you won't regret it - there are some real (REAL?) benefits to living in the Commonwealth. Start with taxes...you might save enough here to hold onto the Stang.
And be glad you're not moving to Maine - where the men are men and so are the women.
Best to you for your mom, JM. With you on this - my brother is also in an ICU at this moment. Life really is good, but there are those moments......
I keep a 1.75 liter Bombay Blue Sapphire handy - scream when you need some.
