Fortress- I'm a girl on a budget, so I'm out for Eddie V's on Thursday. The Hula Hut sounds like fun, so we'll probably drop in there on Thursday. Dana

Karl, Susan has my cell so give me a call and lets try and rendevous. if your up for it we can finish eating and head over to start a food fight with Mel, Fort and the rest of their camp (and collect that first drink she owes us!)! That sounds great! I'll probably see you at the pool for your 100 oops I mean your 1,000 or at the hotel I'm sharing a room with Al.... I'm always up for a good food fight....

Everyones getting sick....beware the plague in Austin. Ack. No hugs for you. This is my first April without sinusitis and bronchitis in years! (No worries, I have a sore neck to complain about now.) Must be a lot of fun in your house with two people tapering and sick. :bolt:
