Yeah, it would be silly calling me ‘handy’ or writing it, whatever. So, how about instead calling me: ‘Im paying for everyone?’
Like this, Barry says, ‘Hi, Im paying for everyone.’ 
I’m coming, as well as my husband, although he claims he’s going to drop me off and go to the aquarium or something, like a big stick in the mud. Also will be picking up Kyla. Not staying the night, and of course attendance depends on how the weather affects the roads. There’s a chance that if it’s too rainy 17 will be closed and I won’t be able to get through. 
Please pardon our dust while we make improvements to our sig line!
If I show up, it will be just me, just for the day, and you can call me Betty.
-Katy
Well Betty, you can call me Al.
-Vince
You do know that you’re gonna’ have to die for that one, right Demo?
(Sheesh, everybody wants to be a comedian these days.)
Hello everyone. I hope I’m not too late with this, but I’m going to arrive at the restaurant about 10 minutes or so before twelve so I can snag a table. Unless of course one of you gets there before I do. Anyway, i’ll check to make sure none of you got there first, if not, i’ll register the the group as “straight dope party” or my name if they insist. My name is Barry Garcia by the way. Anyway, hope to see you all there. Or just look for me, i’ll be wearing baggy jeans, and a black hooded jacket with white and gray stripes down the sleeves :).
It’s worth the risk of burning, to have a second chance…
