I know the feeling, man! Believe or not, my wife and I will be out-of-town that weekend due to prior plans. And it pains me to have to make this announcement when I, myself, would be unable to attend. And it's even free admission!

Well, that's the story of my life!

Tonio,

You've just reminded me. I've been wanting to let you know for a while already that I simply luv your avatar. It's quite humorous, too!

I wonder if anyone can videotape parts of the event and share it in this forum; that is, if videotaping is allowed. If so, that would be cool!
