We were reluctant to post details about Jim's health without his explicit permission, but since he posted an update on Facebook we'll pass it on: Jim will have gall bladder surgery Friday morning.
While that's fairly routine, surgery is not without risks. We'd like to wish Jim a successful operation and a quick recovery. If you get a minute, please post a get-well wish on the forums. We're sure he'd appreciate it.
