Once one brake lines goes replace them all.  Cheap insurance in my book.

I managed to get it to where I could put it up on jack stands and do my own
inspection.

My bake pad sensors are in tact and working so I
wasn't surprised to find the front pads were
good. 

When I got to the rear I was surprised to find
that they were also good. 

So I'm starting to think it's a failing master cylinder when I get a drop of
fluid on my face.
Assuming it was water I wipe it off and it isn't
water....I found my problem, the right rear
brake line has a small rupture!

While the car is up on jack stands I'm going
to replace the brake pads while I wait for the 
brake line to come in.
