For you (and me) that would probably be the Royal Beverage Chill Maintainer. After all, being royalty, we would probably have to speak periodically in governmenteze. And I can't think of anything for this purpose that would sound medieval. Well, this beauteous (self-affirmations are important sometimes) Princess must leave you now. She shall return Thursday. Until then she bids you adieu and prays that the morrow shall be fair and just unto you all.

Have fun in AZ - too hot for the likes of me tho. I'd rather go down to watch some games during baseball spring training......hmmmm, maybe I'll have to talk about that with my Mom and Dad. They're snowbirds that live down there during the winter. Good golf courses too.<P>I know, I know, you'll get tired of hearing about my hacking and whacking at that sometimes stupid little white ball. Why does it always seem to have a mind of it's own? All that slicing couldn't be operator error---noooooo.<P>Speaking of golf (notice how I got that in to the conversation yet again?), that's what I plan to do later this evening...Ladies league tonight. Then, tournament this Saturday. Maybe my anger will help my score - I'll just envision stbx or OW's face on the little white globe and swing with precision and tempo. It's not always how hard you hit the ball but how you swing (just a little life lesson that I just now decided to heed). <P>Have a good day everyone!!

Drew,<P>Have fun in AZ!!! Couldn't you have picked a cooler time to visit the desert though?! <P>Cinderella,<P>I guess we've all been a little lazy lately! I know I have! Come on guys!! Gotta get to 2000 before Christmas! LOL LOL<P>Claire,<P>Hey! Why not draw a face on the ball? Or better yet, glue one of stbx on it! LOL LOL Might make your aim better!

Drove 7 hours, stayed 3 hours and drove 7 back home. (Long story! LOL) I'd like to show my kids so much of the US.(And I'd get to see it too!

I'm too mad to be nice.<P>Gina,<P>I don't think I'd be the one to take lessons from, but I'd be glad to walk the links with you anytime. Handicap used to be about a 20 but has gone up drastically since this s**t with stbx started four years ago. But I'm still hacking and whacking and trying to concentrate on keeping relaxed even if I do harbor hatred in my pea pickin' little heart right now. Whew.....that feels better.<P>Okay, on with the party. Golf tonight (let's see - about 2 hours and counting down) and then out with the gals that I golf with. We go out for a brew afterwards - it's gal get together time with no kids. It is nice

MURPH!!<P>Hey! How ya doin"? <BR>I know how it is with the move. Last year my grandma went into a nursing home and I had to help pack up her stuff.

Sorry I didn't make the party last night. I was too ticked about my golf game - that darn operator error stuff again. Actually, I played pretty average - I'm saving my real game for Saturday when there's $$ involved.<P>Murph - <P>Dollywood is in (I believe) Pidgeon Forge (sp?), TN - it's in the Smokies, supposed to be really pretty through those mountains, but I don't know about going there in January.<P>And since we're speaking of Nashville - there's another song that I <B>really</B> like right now. It is by Aaron Tippin (sp?). I'm not sure if it's the name of the song but the basic line is - "Kiss This, and I don't mean on my rosy red lips." Okay, now that song is running through my head - <P>Have a good one everybody.

I'm back but will be scarce for a few days. I saw the thread about Nashville. Dollywood is 3 or 4 hrs. away. What do ya'll (that's a southern expression found in everyone's vocabulary here - at least all 12 of us who are native Nashvillians) want to do. See the thread about coming. I really need someone else who can be in charge of seeing what all I need to do and telling me to go do it. I'm a good "gopher" just not a good organizer. <P>Don't know how much trouble having it SuperBowl weekend would cause in terms of finding a bunch of rooms. If Titans go, may cause more trouble, may cause less.

Are we going to 1700 today?
