Ayesha, I’m sorry to hear about your family member. My thought go out to you (It’s been one hell of a year, huh?). to everyone else: I’ll be there. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get out of work early, so I’ll be mostly on time. ---

The hubbybob has promised to be home on time to assume responsibility for babybob… I should be there. How will I know which group of merrymakers contains the dopers? What if I accidently fall in with the “wrong crowd” , perchance getting mixed up with a pack of wild dentists or something… horrors! ---

It’s the court reporters you’ve got to watch out for. I’ll make an SDMB sign and put it on the table - that’s worked before. Also, you can go to the [SDMB People Pages](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/) and find pictures of Sealemon, Purplebear and _moi_ (I’ll be differently attired). See ya’ Saturday! ---

Yeah, **Ayesha**! [silly sarcasm/on] Hey everybody, I’ve got a wacky idea (but it just might work!)- lets have a Houston-area doper-fest to celebrate Ayesha’s birthday! How 'bout Saturday, the 29th? Anybody up for it? [silly sarcasm/off] ---

I wish I could be there. I am soooooo slow, I almost missed this post completly. I am working. However, an open invite to all of you: Come see the Houston Shakespeare Festival at Miller Outdoor Theatre in Herman Park. It’s free! Opens next Friday and runs for three weeks. I am the Sound designer and will be out front at the sound consol during the show. Come by and say hello before or during intermission. I’ll be the big guy. Ask for Kelly or Revedge. ---

Awww, hell! Ayesha’s gonna be there after all? It’s bad enough beatle will be there, but now I gotta put up with the Lioness too? 🙂 I’ll be there, of course. Just a little late, as explained earlier. ---
