                     GRATITUDE FOR THE WELL-WISHES

  (Mr. COBLE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COBLE. Mr. Speaker, last month I was a sick pup. This month, I am 
a recovering pup. During my sick pup days, I became the beneficiary of 
cards and letters from well-wishers, personal visits, telephone calls, 
and emails. Many of these expressions originated here in the people's 
House. And the purpose of my 1-minute today is to convey my expression 
of appreciation to my colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, for their 
generous support during that period.
