*gasp* I think I heard about him thinking about retirement, but I didn't know he was sick. Do you know what it is? I bet the headlines have switched to Greg quitting The Wiggles, huh? I just noticed you started this discussion a week ago. :(

I don't think hes sick sick if you know what I mean, but yeah that was a week ago and I havent heard any more. I think I should have left this question without any answer to it so it could have kept going day after day, never mind!
