Special Bulletin 2

Another Special Bulletin. This time I wanted to give you all a heads up. On Friday I came down with Bell's Palsy, a temporary paralysis of one side of the face.

It's caused by an inflammation of the facial nerve, which passes through a small hole behind the ear. When it's inflammed, it gets "pinched" by the hole and stops working. Most people recover by three weeks. Here is a link to more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell's_Palsy

Just so you don't think I'm trying out my Rocky impersonation when you see me next!
