"I'm not going to be able to make it in today," wheezes Barbarossa over the radio. "I'm actually in the hospital."

Knowing Barbarossa's susceptibility to allergies, his first sick day doesn't really come as a surprise ... particularly in the pollen surfeit of this early Illinois Spring. But I have a corporate meeting scheduled this morning where toothy, well-dressed execs will want to decide what he should be fired for; Barbarossa's absence today would be professional suicide.

"Dude," he rasps over the phone cradled in my palm. "I think I just saw a the nurse fart!"

Switching the labels on his nasal decongestant spray and eye drops was merely hastening the inevitable.

-And inspired.
