The next one should be 77777, I think. Much cooler, IMO

Call us when your 75K pertains to miles. Until then, why bother counting?

We went to the movie this earlier evening and we watch Men In Black 3. The movie was very good and it was an incredible movie! I like it lots. This is very funny movie. We have a great movie. Looking forward to next new The Amazing Spider-Men is coming up on July 3, 2012. I can't wait to watch it.

I heard it was a good movie too, as much as I hate movies (mainly paying for them) maybe I'll go see it sometime.

Groan... Let me guess, you'd volunteer to help?

To get some of the US beers I drink? Yes.

As for the 12th- undetermined at the moment, as a family member has a surgical procedure today and we're working on rearranging the house so they can be more mobile when they return (ie not trip over everything

)

I'm sure jackal will send me a reminder notice or two

I'm not a fan of sushi.

You could always bring me an offering of beer when you arrive. I'm sure jackal wouldn't complain about having extra beer around, and probably wouldn't complain if it took me a while to pick up the beer from him. He'd just charge rent, I'm sure.
