Loading For Bear

Well, today is the first of the groupo meetings that I will be involved in, re: Bug. This has the potential to be very good, or very bad, we'll see. Main thing will be to see if Asshead and his mother can stay calm and act like adults or not (he's already made some smartass remarks on the phone last night...looks like, our talk notwithstanding, he's gonna be an asshole about all this).

For my part, I'm going to stay calm and rational, and basically stay out of things, so I don't look like I'm trying to take any control. I'm even willing to take a few snide comments directed at me, just in the interest of keeping the air cool...and if they continue, I plan to remain calm and remind the insulter that we are all adults here, let's act like it and set a good example.

So, hopefully, this will go off well. More later.
