Turning 45 is traumatic.

Turning 45 while visiting a seriously ill family member is even more traumatic.

Traveling home by plane under such circumstances with a muscle spasm that won't quit in your lower back is even worse.

But the worst thing about the day was discovering that my favorite blog read of the day, Captain's Quarters, is going into permanent hiatus as Ed Morrissey goes to work for Michelle Malkin at her Hot Air blog.

I'm sure that I'll get plenty of wonderful posts from Ed at the new digs, but I'll miss CQ. Good luck to all involved.

A family issue has taken me out of town for a few days. That has been the reason for the limited blogging. We are back, the situation is under control and in God's hands. Normal blogging will resume in the next day or two -- and will include at least one post about our dealings with TSA screeners in a major metropolitan airport.
