Who all is going to be here?  I compiled a list of people that are yeas and maybes.  Did I miss anyone?  Anyone no longer able to make it?  Just want to get a good head count so we can figure out what we are doing for dinner and such.  We can go out somewhere for dinner or if there is just a few people we can do dinner here.  I only have seating for 8, so anymore than that we go out for sure.  We do dinner here people will need to bring parts of dinner as well or it maybe easier just to go out to a restaurant as my kitchen in this house is on the small side.  Gifts will need to be brought for the gift exchange...bring a girl gift for a girl and a boy gift for a boy.  Keep it around $15 or so?  We're working hard on getting the theatre in useable condition for movies.. have a fav.. bring it with... also we have a PS2, so bring a game if you want.  You're going to have to BYOB as usual and some to share is always good.  So we need to know what peoples thoughts on going out to dinner are, if we go out what type of restaurant you want, and who all is really planning on coming out.  There are a lot of places around here for dinner types so if no one cares I'll just pick something...lol.  Pass this info onto everyone so we know we've contacted everyone.  Thanks.

Hey Jill,

See Ya next week.

Blair

F.Y.I.. i need directions Jill.. my mom and dad havent been to your new house yet

OK, Everyone that asked for them should have some sort of directions.  Hopefully they work, if not give us a call if you get lost...lol.  See everyone Sat.  I guess sometime after lunch would be fine.  Don't forget your gift for the exchange and any booze you want to drink.  Also bring a snack to share as well.  See Ya soon!

Jill

Going out to dinner somewhere.  No buffets in the area so we'll hit someplace nearby I guess.

as Dave, Jill and James already know I will miss the party 

my car broke down 1 street corner from my place on my way back home today after work
I probably have a broken flexplate
worst case scenario broken crankshaft or blown tranny

the engine was running with a loud noise and lots of vibrations on my way back
it did this a few times recently but it stopped after a few seconds but tonight it was constant
I was on a red light, almost home, gave some gas, heard some more noise than the engine was revving at 4000 rpm freely
oups the car doesn't more anymore

stop the engine
and now if I turn the key I can only hear the starter spinning

I'll have to look into this saturday and sunday

Alain

I will probably be in.  I'll confirm tomorrow.  GF just had her wisdom teeth out and can only eat soft food...
