Which scar are you referring to :hmm:

You do know he suffered a bad accident in a sensitive area when he was a kid

But that was just last month.:rotfl:

And we want to see the scar in real life that we've already seen in the funny pages.

I am now officially bummed...after saving all of the hard earned $$$, sweating the increasing gas prices...and all that stuff...

My company just informed me that I will be in travel status starting 10/7 and ending 11/22 with no rest inbetween. Seems like there is some training that has to be done and since I am the trainer...

I will be thinking of all of you though...

Would someone please climb to the top of the Texas and snap a pic for me? I was so looking forward to the hardhat tour...not to mention the hanging out on the desk of the sub with you guys...(I am somewhat claustrophobic and the last time I went into the sub I almost lost it...)

That is why there is no beer for Mr. Buna. Spreading such dastardly rumo(u)rs .

@ Neal, Do you have a rough guesstimate of the cost (food and entertainment)?
