Psssst, Kathrynne <whispering> Say, m'dear,,,, Do ya think everyone or ANYONE is gonna believe all that kind stuff we said about each other here on the List? Do ya think we laid it on kinda heavily? <grin> It was tough enough getting the the group of List members that DID show up TO show up! As much as I'd love to face-to-face with a whoooooole buncha our fellow List members (in LA, where _ I _ happen to live, of COURSE), I don't think I'd be the one to take on and organize an event for a few thousand Parkies! YIKES!!!!! <and I used to organize big events many years ago for one of the law offices I worked at> But 450 persons was the biggest event I'd ever planed. YIKES!!!! YIKES!!!! YIIIIIIIIIKES! We've got thousands of Parkies here on the List! Kathdynne, I'm NEVER going to eat any ice cream again! Honestly, I'm SURE I ate my ice cream like a Lady, that night.... Ummm .... I know that 'cause I made SURE when I scarfed the delectable, icy cold , chocolate-y, creamy Haagan Daz ice cream like a Lady 'cause I have earned this danged TITLE, "The Goddess off Ice Cream!" SHEEESH... if you think I ate it rapidly when you were here, well, you wouldn't BELIEEEEEEEVE my "normal" ice cream eatin' speed! <giggle> JUST now got back online after being finally convioncing MSN that the reason I couldn't gain system axcess had to do with MSN's changing my original password, which they initially denied doing. So here I am today FINALLY -with a password that actually WORKS! Gotta delete a ton of email, then get some sleep. Hugs at ya...
