    Dylan booked spot 27.  I'm going to bring a huge Coleman tent.  It's called a "60 second pop-up", which incidentally is Dylan's wife's nickname for him. (dunno why). 

    Anyway, have a 10' x 14' x 7'4" tent with AC.

    Hope B-rent and wife makes it.  Damn John got in the Atlanta control tower last night and pushed all the buttons...

    I talked to Brent this morning, and he has agreed to come to BB on the condition that I concede that Coach Cal is much more handsome and charming than Coach K.

    Brent knows that some forms of punishment are both cruel and unusual.

    I think John just needs to maintain a much higher level of professionalism and class.  Somewhere on par with the rest of us - 24/7/365

    Kay and I are looking forward to Butt Blast, many of you don't know that I had a run in with Shingles on my face that migrated to my right cornea! I have been in limbo here in Okeechobee FL seeing eye doctor on a very regular basis for two months. Today I see the eye doctor I hope for the last time, this has kept us here due to insurance only good in FL hopefully my doctor will tell me today that my eye is clear of shingles and I can start migrating north to the NC summer estate. Have been weaning off eye meds for 3 weeks and eye is feeling great and vision is much better in right eye. I will update youins later today after my date with the eye doctor. :)

    I'm only hungry when I'm awake!

    theres hope, we just have to learn and understand that being a duke professor has certain unearned, unconscious material/cultural advantages and deal with it =)

    Gee Jim that all sounds pretty terrible!  I hope for your sake you're on the mend and will be able to make it.  BB wouldn't be the same without you and Kay!

    Eye herpes can be very painful.  Sounds like you're just about recovered....

    Just got an email from the owner of the RV I'm renting.  His previous renters trashed it and broke things.  It's not going to be ready in time for the event.

    This morning my wife asked if I would cancel going to “that North Carolina thing” to take a beach trip with my in laws who we can barely sit through a lunch without an “incident”.

    What kind of "incident"?  The one where you pretend you don't know these people?
