Is there anyway to go to a Ticketmaster location to get real tickets printed instead?
Ouch... the problem with "TicketFast" is it's essentially a PDF file that can be saved on someones hard drive so you have NO idea if the person that sold it to you has removed it. Only the first copy will scan at the venue whether it's the original or not...

HELLOW, PEOPLE! Don't let a good thing die out just because Snow Miser is playing havoc with our neck of the woods......

yeah, I'm at fault as well, but got concerned when it hit page 2. I need to make sure that there will be lots of gossip, fish stories, and fantasies awaiting when I hit the Caribbean in a few weeks. I want to be able to read up on lots of gossip once I'm home, the sand is finally out of the suit cases, and my sunburn has immediately left upon a few minutes back in the Michigan tundra........


(BTW, the paradise lounge need anything in particular from either the Ocho Rios or Grand Cayman Margaritavilles? Not promising anything, but I'm willing to ask for maybe a name tag or other fun sort of memorabilia to bring as our sacrifice...)

Flying by to say hello. My little keet was sick this weekend so he was my priority. He stayed home today but i think he played me. Oh well....a day off from 1st grade is needed now and then right? :D Thankfully he started eating solid food this morning and keeping pedialyte down. Yesterday was soooooooo much fun. Thought I was at a tailgate with all the cleaning up. [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

Was going to skip this year (economy) but had such a blast last year..........well, so much for retirement fund anyway.
Looking forward to meeting others, forgot cell list last year, and no one contacted us, because no one knew us. I've got a few months to fix that.................

I'm beside myself . . . Today it was discovered that we have 56 people committed to the Parrot-Dice Lounge. These are ticketholding members of our group that grows twice the size annually. 3 years ago there were only 15 of us. Last year 30. This year we're on our way to 60. These are just the people I have to worry about feeding and dehydrating all day into the night . . . .

I wish I knew what made this so exciting for everyone. It's like I have something special people really seem to enjoy and frankly I do not know what that even is.

Cell list is started....

Just need you to pm me your screen name, real name and cell #. I'll get you added. I look forward to seeing and meeting you there! The economy is taking a toll but I cannot imagine missing my one day escape to paradise among friends. :wench:

WOW!! I hope we will be able to squeeze in over there. I can tell you that for me you helped to make the day a total escape from reality and extra incentive to let it all hang out so to say. You and your wife are just the ultimate hosts of PHUN!! I am so looking forward to all you have in store. I'm bringing you a bottle of cuervo just incase you have anybody that wants to do a cuervo bong [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif] .
