I've met Richard Dawson. Scotts a nice guy. Why would you want to punish him by turning him in to R.D.?

You obviously have no sense of humor. As a joke I referenced every host of Family Feud I could remember and in quoting me, you eliminated all of them from except the one you had the distinct honor of meeting.

In your defense, there are now only 99 Silver Elites left to survey.

I'll talk to the insider and see if he concurrs and if I am representing the issues correctly.
In Texas, a minor with a parent should not be a legal issue. Heck, In Texas I can legally buy my kids drinks in a bar. I guess some plaintiff’s attorney could be a problem if there is an injury, but that’s a relatively remote possibility, especially if there are liability releases.

Please let me know what the policy on this is. One of my +2 is Farenthold Jr. She’s a 19 year old Texas Tech student who is looking young & being elite and pondering a career in the travel and hospitality industry.

BTW Count us in for Mortons.

The TT RHIMS program is a good one if she decides to go. I was there working on my PhD for a year.

Talked to the powers that be. We are comfortable with 18 for the age cutoff. You will be fine.
