State of the irregular, part the something-or-other-eth

Yeah, some things have happened. Some of them you probably already know about.

On the personal front, my dad's hip replacement surgery came off without a hitch. He's scheduled to be released from the hospital in a day or two, depending on how well he's moving He got released today, I just learned over Skype; in three months he'll be able to play golf, and in six months, he'll be able to play tennis. Which is amazing, because he couldn't do either of those things before his hip went bad in the first place.

These are the jokes, I'm afraid, gang...
