Chris I was going to go, but when Jimmy plays where you live?
Be afraid for Columbia, Jack and I will be on the loose, he is staying with me!
Great Woods, is that some sort of campground? Is it the place where one
learns the proper way to wear a lamp shade?

So does this mean I can officially keep the bottle of Jameson?

TongaTam - I got your pm this am but I still can't send any to you - they just keep going to my outbox. Not sure what's going on but wanted to check that you got the info on the requested e-mail addresses.
C-Dawg - How many more days do we have to wait now?
TommyBahama - Macy's is having a huge sale on TB shirts. You might want to stock up for that weekend!

You will board a bus that will take you to the Brewmaster's Tavern where you will go on a tour of the brewery, you'll be able to taste some beer and you'll have a nice lunch before the bus returns you to the Holiday Inn at 2pm for the rest of the phun activities planned. The cost is $25 per person which covers everything including tips.

Just got this email.....
Hello Parrot Head Conventioneers,
You guessed it another update. We are now at T-34 and counting. Hope all of you are preparing for a wonderful weekend with all your parrot head phriends old and new.
So as you are planning for that masquerade ball and you realize that wearing glasses gets in the way of wearing a mask – well no problem. Come to our mask making class and you can create a handheld mask that will work just fine. So don’t forget to sign-up through the website.
For those that have been coming up with some creative ideas for their masquerade ball costumes (we know how you parrot heads are) how about designing a centerpiece to go with your costume theme? You’ll be the hit of the ball!! You’re creativity might even earn you some extra points in the costume judging department.
So don’t forget – spread the word to your phamily and phriends to come have some fun and party those Winter doldrums away.
We are so looking forward to seeing everyone and all the wonderfully creative ideas.
Sunshine

So, how many of you are doing the mask making?
BTW....

MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!

Dont think I'm doing that... I found a cool mask already (plus, I hate wearing masks so doubt it'll be on all that long!). I'd like to do the brewery tour however... start the day out with a nice beer buzz! 
A couple of us were thinking of doing a crockpot/pot luck dinner type of thing for the Thursday night people. Think the band goes on around 7 or 8... so like 6 or so near our block of rooms!
more to come!

I haven't seen a schedule posted yet, but have been to the different bands websites and from that you can put together a rough schedule....
Thursday
8pm Rum Runners
Friday
1-5pm Cocabanana Band
5pm- Tall Paul and Crawdaddy
9pm -1am Changes In Lattitude
Saturday
9pm -1am Jim Morris
Sunday
1:00 PM Vudu Krewe All-Star Mardi Gras Band
I'm hoping that Sunday date is a typo and Vudu Krewe is playing Sat evening, but that's what was posted...also, the Calypso Nuts haven't posted dates that far in advance yet, so I don't know when they're playing, but would guess it'll be Saturday afternoon 1-5pm, followed by dinner and time to change into costumes, then Vudu Krewe from 7-9pm.

yeah, but his first years were with the Habs, and he won Cups there in '86 and '93.

Yeah, I remember that, I was just being a wiseguy. No cup for Bourque here. I do remember the B's winning cups though.
I should show you the Dryden rookie card we have.
He was an unbelieveable goalie. We hated him!
33 days and counting.
