Unfortunately, I have a 40 mile drive home, so I’ll be taking it easy; at least the last two or three hours. ---

Hey! It’s today! Woohoo! UncleBeer already knows this, 'cause I emailed him, but I kept forgetting to post it here. My mom will be joining us. She lives in Ann Arbor. She’s a lot of fun. You’ll like her too. But now I have to call her, because I told her it was at 7:00. It’s not. Argh. I really need to learn to read. Gotta go do my nails now. And lay out my clothes…and my valentine undies. 🙂 * * * “The quickest way to a man’s heart is through his ribcage.” --anonymous redhead ---

Regretably, I will be unable to attend, for a couple reasons. 1. I just found this thread again, and realized that the party was tonight. I doubt that I could get there if I started now. 2. I doubt very much that my wife would either understand or come along with me, both being pretty essential to my attendance. I can just hear her now. “You want to drive to Ann Arbor, and get drunk? And who the hell do you think will be driving home?” I guess we could have gotten a room, but see reason 1 above. Thanks, Unc, for remembering me, though. I’ll drink a Bitburger tonight with you all. ---

4:26pm EDT. I will be there about 6:30 or 6:45 and get a table in the name of Cecil Adams. Ask at the front for that name. They assured me that they would probably be pretty busy so at 7:30 I’ll probably be in the bar still. I weigh about 200 pounds and am six feet tall with black collar length hair ( I really need a trim) and mustache. I am wearing a pair of jeans and a khaki button down shirt with my company logo sewn over the left pocket. I will be with Sucellus and he goes about 240 or so with very curly hair. I hope this will help you find us although most of you probably won’t even see this until it’s too late. I also have the digital camera from work. See ya soon. * * * “That it is unwise to be heedless ourselves while we are giving advice to others, I will show in a few lines.” - Phaedrus, translator of Aesop’s Fables ---
