[[What?? Did she just call me a pansie?]] No. The singular is “pansy.” ---

I’m getting English lessons from an American? How ironic! 😉 You misspelled “colour”, “behaviour”, and “favourite” last week in GQ. Didn’t want to tell you then and there, but as long as we’re giving language lessons… 😃 ---

As long as you’re posting on an _American website_ it would serve you well to pay attention to my language and grammar instruction, Tulip Boy. Unless you’re prepared to correct Cecil as well. ---

Correct The Master? I think it’s time for me to pull a handy and leave this thread forever. 😉 ---

[[I think it’s time for me to pull a handy and leave this thread forever.]] Yeah? When did handy ever do _that_? And anyway, if you’ve talked to David I bet you just wanna play air hockey with me at the moderators’ meeting… We had a helluva game in San Diego, too!! - Jill ---

Who? What? Huh? All I know is I woke up the next day in a dumpster with Bob Goulet singing “Impossible,” Johnny Depp won’t stop calling (how he got my number I’ll never know), and I don’t remember a damn thing. Did I have fun? And did we have this little shindig on May 2-3? I was home visiting in Philadelphia, but I’m up for something the next time you’re in town. (Feel free to put me in charge - I’ve quite a knack for planning things like this, and was planning to do one once **waterj2** got into town anyway.) Esprix ---

Oh shoot, Johnny musta lost my number and thinks you have it. Tell him he can call anytime. - Jill ---

No shindig this time, Esprix. I should be going out there again sometime in the near future; I’ll be sure to let y’all know. I’m hoping I won’t be as friggin’ tired this time; I need to talk to someone about this “5:50AM departure” crap. By the way, I vote for Gaslamp Quarter. Gaslamp Quarter? Gaslamp Quarter? Three Gaslamp Quarters. ---

Well I’m up for a SDSDopefest. Who’s with me? NoCal/SoCal my _ass_! Esprix ---

FWIW, I highly recommend La Pensione hotel in Little Italy which is a block from the harbor, near the trolley, in a nice neighborhood for 50 bucks a night. ---

Lessee, I’ll be in Tucson next week for a day or two, then in Tucson the week after that, maybe, for two or three days. If it’s two days, I may go to LA afterward. Hmmm, dunno when I’ll be back in SD, but I’m sure it’ll be some time fairly soon. I’ll keep you informed, Esprix and Greg. Thanks for the suggestion, Jill. If I’m visiting customers near the airport, I’ll check into your suggestion. I may even stay there regardless, since I would be driving against traffic. ---

[[Thanks for the suggestion, Jill. If I’m visiting customers near the airport, I’ll check into your suggestion.
