Tommy/Regina, I work for the City of Phoenix. I sent an email to the Intercontinental this morning asking for clarification as to whether we qualify for government rates. Hopefully I'll hear back from them today.

Hi all!!!

George, how does the time change affect you if Arizona does not participate? I am curious to know how you are the only state that does not turn back the clocks.....This is very interesting.

I love the time change, light until 8pm I love it love it love it. Of course I do not have to get ready for work at 5am so I can see your displeasure....lol

Dan, Happy Birthday have a fabulous trip and party!!

George, Once the remodel is done I am sure the house is going to be fantastic.....It's always nice to have everything re-done and new...Purge out the old.

Julie and I are in the process of getting rid of 2/3 of our stuff. Downsizing feels pretty good. It took me two hours to clean out one cabinet full of stuff I do not need, garage sale here we come....lol

Dee and Doris are doing well, they are at the doctor's office getting the box turned on for Doris. She has had a bit of a headache this time, but hopefully over the next few days that will subsied. We celebrated her birthday on Sunday, we played poker and had cake. I made her a cake shaped like a puzzle piece, she was very surpirsed and we all had fun.

Jim, sorry to hear about Hope and Bubba, you guys have had this sick thing going around for a while now....We are looking forward to seeing you all....

Hi Regina,Tommy, Anne, Arrielle, Greg.....

Well back to work I go. Have a fab day!!!!!

I was going to post and ask how our girl Doris was doing!!

Guys, I've got an idea of what we can do in 2008. Today I got the brochure with the perfect cruise for us. It's a 62-day cruise from Venice to Sydney. Prices start at $26,716. It's on Silversea. What do you guys think? I have a feeling we'd be the youngest ones on there, but we probably could take over the aft and have big parties after everyone goes to sleep at 8PM. Think about it...we wouldn't have to worry about geting a table to ourselves, we'd have all of late seating to ourselves Do you want me to call Lori to see if we can put down a $50 deposit? :)D

I am game for it. Heck George don't do the remodel thing invest into something practical like a 62 day cruise. I wonder what our bar bill will be on that one. And if you smuggle your booze on board...6 beers a day X 62 days = 15.5 cases of beer per person X 2 = 31 cases per cabin. 4 cases per suit case = 8 pieces of luggage. I guess you should wear you formal attire while boarding and maybe you can squeeze two pair of swim trunks/string bikinis in the piece of luggage that is only 1/2 full of beer. Thats a plan where do I sign up (of course that was singular not plural...I...). Tommy not Regina)

Well sure, Tommy, Regina would have to stay behind to finance your cruisefare.

Not sure if you guys heard about our severe weather conditions. A tornado touched down last night in the town next to ours. Greg's elderly aunt lives less than a mile from the touch down, and his parents are just over a mile from there. Everyone is fine, but it was pretty scary to hear the tornado warning pop up out of nowhere and then hear the location. We had quite a weather drop to cause it. The last two days we've been in the low 70's, then this morning I couldn't believe it when I looked out the window and snow is falling. No wonder the sky got angry! It sounds like no one was seriously injured, but a garden center and a mall were damaged - and a bunch of trees are down. Wild.

Well, off to work. I'll see how it looks near us - under the light level of snow. Sheree

Happy birthday Dan....

Hey I think I am going to pass on that cruise guys. I am not sure my sea leggs would work that long nor could I handle you all drunk (based on Toms calculations for the booze) for that many days.

I have a better idea...........Let's all go to Arizona and visit George and Ann in their newly remodeled house. They have a pool a grill and some fancy chairs on the patio (did you buy the ones you were talking about?) that a a few shots of tequlia what more could we ask for.

I am with you Regina. I was driving home in the snow last night and on the phone with George, who had the pool guy over.....that's just not right!!!! Hmmm....I've never been to Arizona.

I booked using the government rate at the Intercontinental on Chopin Plaza. I am glad someone brought up that there are two - this one mentions that it is the closest to Bayside. George, you booked at the same place, right? I booked after receiving George's e-mail. I am going to print it and keep it with my reservation.

Ok I won`t book until I know where everyone is staying (what hotel) and at what price. I am a government employee for my room and Bobbie is a government employee for the other room. so that won`t be a peoblem.
so as soon as yall post the info we will book.
Hope is well with everyone

Hi guys - happy Monday. Blah....I hate Mondays.

I booked the Intercontinental based on the e-mail from George confirming that we could get the room for $107 no matter what kind of "government employee" we are. if we want to continue to try Priceline, that's fine with me, because the room rate is just held on a credit card. From what George was saying, Priceline didn't appear to be giving the Intercontinental as a winning bid recently. I'll hold on to this reservation and I can go either way....if we decide to stay here at $107 a night, that's great. If everyone wants to continue Priceline, I am fine with that too, and I can cancel this. I don't mind paying $107 for this hotel....but whatever is good for everyone is good for me!

OK yall we are booked using the government rate at the Intercontinental on Chopin Plaza....looks like a real nice place to stay. If things change we can always cancel. But I have a feeling that is where the party is going to start.
George ..sorry to cut you short on the phone today things at work were crazy today.
Can`t we all just cruise tomorrow I don`t want to wait.
Hope all is well with everyone.
BTW O Girls update us on Doris we all worry about yall

ps. got Bobbies van on the road I felt like a hippy again everyone was giving us peace sign :)
