Hey Guys,
San Fran is pretty good... despite the few kooks here and there... I mean everywhere!
We are getting back into town tomorrow sometime, so if people are around after 7 on monday night feel free to drop by.
Beers will be provided.
See you then,
the J and the D

where the hell are you going, Jess??? do you want your Harry book back? it was very very good!
Leo - you should be on the mend by now! :p hope you're getting better... if slowly... if it makes you feel better, or, uh... allows you to commiserate, I got food poisoning in High Level, and my body's taking its sweet time recovering from that adventure...
and... how's this for an interesting phrase:
"Glitter is the herpes of craft supplies"

it's not my fault, the extra "l" just slid in there! I was tired and sick, and quite frankly still am... probably not a good idea for me to play ultimate tomorrow seeing that i'm coughing left and right and i've just about completely lost my voice...
I believe Jere and Dana get back sometime tomorrow night

Hey, does anyone know when Dana and Jer get back? I figured I was doing them a favour by just giving them their wedding present in Edmonton (one less thing to bring back) but now I realize they are gone, and I am leaving soon too.....

This seems like it could be fear-mongering (but then, I guess, it would be fear-of-fear-mongering mongering), but the BBC reports in Brazil, criminal gangs frequently phone victims with fake abduction claims about their loved ones and trick them into handing over cash.:
The virtual kidnappers, if you could call them that, try to panic the person they call - often a mother or a father - into going to a bank and paying out a ransom before there is time to actually check if their relative is missing.
In most cases no-one has actually been abducted.
Time and fear and the aggressive manner of the caller are the key elements of this type of crime.

At least you don't have to worry about the alternative resolution proposed by Indian communities: everyone and his uncle (in some cases, literally) searching for someone for you. Keep up the struggle, bro!

well, Leo, not if you're going to spell my name wrong! ;)
nah, if worse comes to worse, maybe I'll fulfill that other expectation people have of me... to live alone in the woods forever! hahahaha!
what exactly would that support group be though? the "my mother thinks I should date more" group? I don't think so... haha!
