ETA I think I read Steve's last post wrong! Did you get a new job or did the quote fall off?

Looks like Olton Hall and I are on for free cupcakes and EWR-MCO tomorrow morning. Because of the snow, CO1592 went from half-empty to and F is booked full.

While I was shoveling out my truck, I found two full bottles of pills buried in the snow. They were tossed around by the plows so much that I can't make out a name or address so I'm going door-knocking in my court to see if there is anyone missing their medication.

Later Box.

I have never been in a P-club. CO1702 and I'm taking the choo-choo there for the first time so should arrive around 9.

C) Play the trip in vain card somehow
B. Definitely.

Le Meridien = the one SPG brand which I haz not, as of now. Was going to get it in LCY this summer but couldn't pass up the opportunity to try the brand-new W which is opening next month.

On a scale of 0 to 10—with 0 representing zero possibility and 10 representing metaphysical certitude—what is the chance of Madre de Copa scoring bumps on Monday morning? Will the system still have significant in it by then?

No combination of pain-free body movements combined to let me pick up Kovy's evening trip to the bathroom. This led to me looking at Copa Connection, who by this point is chortling while watching me, and saying a string of words I never thought I would say.

"Come help me. I can't reach the $hit."

Guess we'll miss you unless you want to get there REALLY early (we've got a 7:30 departure). If you do come, I'd be happy to guest you.
