Lynn,
Count me in - I'll make an effort to swing down and see ya! I also might suggest you have at least one "back-up" teacher in mind- as Ted may be looking around in his trunk prior to the event- somehow accidently fall in and have the hood close on him- it could be weeks before someone would miss him!..... NO! TF don't be coming back with one of your cannon ball posts!

I don't know what you're talking about. You can see that it's not loaded. It's dark in there, so you may need a match.

P.S. You're on my short list, too!

With this economy, lets hope it will still be Barclays. Lots of mad Met fans and NYC folk scrapping up some change to pay for the Citi sign at Shea.
