Farewell to Bowman the Showman.

Figure skating champ Christopher Bowman dies at age 40.

Christopher Bowman skating "Bad Boy". I've based Rodney McKay's skating style (in Out of Bounds) on Bowman and I'm sorry to see Christopher go.

Christopher Bowman skating "Maria". I'm posting his "California Dreamin'" program on YouTube, but it's not up yet. Okay now it is: Christopher Bowman skating "California Dreamin'".

Christopher Bowman shocking everyone with his unrestrained "Wooly Bully".

Farewell, Bowman the Showman.

Sick report: very brief

I should probably mention The Status of the Flu (been meaning to). Tendays later we're both still sick but at work and at school. Our coughs are worse from being out in the cold but we seem to be slowly recovering. I'm hating stairs these days.

If we were in Europe I bet we would have been allowed the time needed to get well.
