I've been constantly cleaning all surfaces and washing my hands. Luckily the twins didn't catch it. Hope y'all feel well soon!
    Too many antibiotics and the body / immune system builds up resistance to them. not to mention so does the bug you're trying to eliminate.

    Unless you keep the kids out of school 2-3 more weeks it will be a viscous circle .

I think buy once cry once, and go with the aimpoint pro. Anyone seen them for sale locally?
    Not local, but I think I saw them somewhere for $389. Slickguns maybe? You can probably do better then that if you work at it.

    I can understand that. Shoots fine with a comp though......methinks.

    way too scared to enter that domain. Plus I'm very ignorant on the subject atm.

    He has an appointment with ENT specialist. Really bad stridor/croup cough in back to back weeks is odd. But I agree immunity does build up. He seems fine so far (and has gone to school).
