News on George:

So far no news on when George will be leaving, but we do know this:  His 
waver to not retire and to stay on pay status was denied.  So he set his 
retirement date for October and is on authorized absence, does not have to 
drill.  The military has reached their current recall limit and until 
either Congress passes a resolution or the people who are already out there 
age out on their 12 month reactivation he is safe!  Yeah!  But he is still 
on the next group to go list.  Though if it's noticed by the powers to be 
that he has a retirement request in that might preclude him from going 
too.  So I would say now we sit at a 70/30 chance of him not going!  Yeah!
