The Tension is Palpable

The tension is palpable, yes?

Less than two hours 'til the end. No bids. Several emails offering side deals. Hmmmm.

I think it's going to take off in the last half hour. Until then I'm going to drink my coffee and read the New York Times. Putter around the house. Have some cereal. Listen to my new Bruce Springsteen album.

At the half-hour to go mark, I'm hitting the Jack Daniels.
