Hello Knuckleheads

I cant thank you all for the hundreds of thanks yous and want you to know that it was such a win win for us too. It quantified what and why we do for all of us.

I was traveling all day......that crazy indian woman that was smuggling curry for the 4 hrs to atlanta wasnt as bad as the guy who kept bumping me whilst checking his blackberry knowing full well there was no service.

Bottom line is I am taking two days off.....I got invited to play in the Fazio cup in Kiawah Island south carolina, and need the break Will still check in here but tonight there were 76 unviewed threads...I will catch up but it will be slowly.....

thanks and wish me well.......My voice is just now coming back!
 
I'm up to wine country myself BP....have a great time, eat oysters and try to break 100 ok???

Cocktails in PS next week???
 
You deserve a break after looking after the hundreds of rabid EBMM lovers and putting on the event of century! Good luck and HAVE FUN! :cool:

Hope you shoot a 68!

...and then get a 69 :D

(Perhaps I should change my name to Lucious)

Seriously though you deserve a break BP after what you did last weekend.

If you are ever in the UK we need to hook up and I can start repaying the immense debt I owe to you.

In the off chance you see this before you head back to CA...

If you are flying out of Atlanta, I'd love to buy YOU a shot of tequila at the airport bar if there's enough time. Unlike some of the other lightweights around here, I can actually hold my own when it comes to tequila....
 
BP, once again, AWESOME event this past weekend. Many thanks to you and all the other employees and forum members who showed up and made it as special a time as it was!

Is that a compliment or an insult? :confused: I missed the tequila shots when they came around at the Firestone, but made sure I got in on the Jager ones :D

BP,
Can't begin to describe the entire event but it was amazing-amazing-amazing! Thank you isn't adequate by any stretch but Thank You!! I had *such* a blast meeting everyone and taking it all in. I'm still catching up on the posts since then and am travelling again Mon-Wed. this week so will post when I can get my thoughts into some semblance of order. I have pics and even a few vid clips to add to the drop site when it's ready.
Best of luck with the golf tournament.
Janice :)
