    Yup... I'll pick you (and any & all stuff) up tomorrow. The VX is pretty much empty, so don't worry about bringing too many bags...
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    Jo, so glad you'll be there even if the Whore can't make it.

    It always surprises me, and I don't know why because this is one of the best bunch of people around, at the generosity of everyone here. It doesn't surprise me, however, that Gill and Cece offered to pick you up. Those two epitomize the term "good people".

    See you Sunday.

    Yup...LOTS of good people here.

    Gill and CeCe have already taken root on the stoop...
    ...so their offer was the easiest too organise.

    But like I said...a BIG thanks to all.

    Jo, just thought of the important stuff.....are there any adult beverages that I can pick up for you on my way in tomorrow? Figured you wouldn't be able to fly with a gallon of Mount Gay.
