vettech, I watched both of your shows and cheered, but I just realized I haven't said anything to you yet. Way to go! Congratulations! Whoohoo! You were a superb contestant.

Re: Retroactive good luck to vettech
Sorry about the delayed congrats. I just figured that it would be in keeping with the other delays... 
And thanks for the narrative! I always find the stories behind the show to be one of the best parts of the whole watch! Not quite as exciting as seeing somebody win 250 big ones, of course...but close. Pretty darn close, I tell ya what.
Again, congrats!!
