Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“

John, I'm not in a rush for the $; when you get everything caught up. No big deal. I may need some of your craftsmanship at some point anyway.
