I have to admit a three hour drive makes me jelous, I'm looking at about a 16ish hour drive in a car that turns 50 this year (the things we do to be cool huh? Wink And to say I'm excited is an understatement, I've been working OT for two months for this one. From what I have seen on "Book TV" in the previous years the room it will be held in will be fairly large, still I hope there won't be too much of a fight to get in.

Yours impatiently.

Oh no!! I must have my road trips mixed up. I thought you were talking about the Waukegan one that Robot Lincoln has been planning. Sorry, can't make the UCLA one!

Yeah, I saw your location, I figured you were in Cali for a time, or you had a really fast car. Not "Herbie" fast, like "Speedracer" fast.
It should be broadcast on C-Span2 as it was last year, look for me I'm the big tattooed guy with the green mohawk.
Yes Jayne is my christian name.
Think boy named Sue.
My parents are a little off.
Hence me.

Unbeleivable! I've got to stop letting my imaginative positronic brain run amuck!

Imagine my suprise when I found out at about age 5 that I had a girls name. Go ahead say it, I know you want to, "Jayne is a girls name".

My typical response is: "Well Jayne's not a girl!"

Shrug.

Sounds terrible British - maybe just a different spelling - like Jaine or Jane which can be last name as well.

To be honest it's a pain, It's about eight inches tall, and takes me about 20 minutes to glue in place, and thats after years of practice. I have been thinking of growing it out and going with a pompadore, but then ya gotta deal with the pomade and that stuff never comes out of your hair.

Upon rereading this post, a valid argument could be made that I am indeed a girlWink

Your androgenously
