Lots of phin power coming to you from out west!! I know exactly what you're going through ... really. 3 years ago this July my back went into spasm much the same as yours.

I noticed that too, so sent a pm to RoadToTheFinalFour. Hopefully it gets fixed.

Re: Canadian dates?

Has anyone heard anything about Canadian dates (Toronto, specifically)? I'm starting to get worried! :( Does Toronto have a cute younger sister who dates? She's a little on the "large" side if you get my drift.. She just big-boned. And she has such a great personality! Just ask her!!!

Went with that crazy woman. As much fun as Fins is, when he did WGCOCS in Vegas in 2005 (my first concert), it really got to me. Took me right back to when we listened to the "old stuff" when it was actually "new stuff" back in my university days,

Been to both but only for one day on a cruise. Spent most of the day at Palm Beach in Aruba, in front of the Holiday Inn. Beautiful soft sand and warm, calm water. Air temp was 84 and water was 82! Laid on a foam mat and floated for a long time. Found a lot of the places downtown to be very expensiv...

You'll probably get lots of feedback on Grand Cayman, so I won't add anything to that, but ... Costa Maya ... we were there 2 years ago on a cruise. Not a lot to do, but take the bus or a taxi into Mahahual and spend some time on the beach. Be sure to stop by Pez Quadro at the far end of town http:/...

Antigua would be just fine, as would St. Croix or even St. Thomas. I'd love to go back to Cuba, but things would have to be different than they are now.

But, I think my ultimate would have to be the Cook Islands ... just have to get there some day!

No, it's not my real name! When I registered I couldn't come up with anything Buffett-related that wasn't already taken ... creativity was escaping me that night. I finally gave up trying and just went with something that I've been involved with for the past 20 years as a fan, sponsor and volunteer....
