Oh David! If I was Randal I would jump on you right then and there! Fuck Lashawn and Lureen! 
I have some serious Alberta news for you guys! Today after shopping me and my mum we were sat on a bench in my local park eating chocolate and laughing at the runners(never mind!). And she looked at me and said, "You really want to go to Alberta and see your net friends, dont you?" You notice she calls you guys net friends which is her little way of making you sound like you are about 5 and we are talking about the Teletubies or something when she doesn't realise that most of you are just younger or about the same age as her.
Of course I answered enthusiastically and was like, "You know I would love to, but I know you and dad want to go to Washington that year and we can't have two US holidays in one year" And to cut a long story short; she basically said screw Washington and we can go to Alberta instead. So I am really happy now, I just hope it will happen now cause otherwise I am screwed. So who else would be interested in meeting up in Alberta in Aug 2007? Or am I just on my own?
OMG!!! Wow! Okay, I think we are officially needing to open the discussion and planning/dreaming stage of Alberta 2007! Yippeee! I think that will be a great time, tho a sad month in our Cult Calendar, since Jack and Ennis were denied not one, but two Augusts together, but maybe we can do some rituals up there on the mountain for them, to try and make things right somehow. I am just ecstatic that your mom gets it how much you are part of this community and how effing serious we are about doing this Alberta thing. I have been thinking that even though I want to do it this summer, logistically it's too soon for people. So, let's get some other voices back around this particular issue and start a new thread soon.
Mean time, here's a pic of my new rodeo belt buckle which I love!!!!
I hope this works...if it doesn't please remind me how to do the attachments thing. I'm trying to attach the pic from my hard drive. Nice pics by the way, David!
And, for the record, we should mention that while standing on the street near where Heath and Michelle are rumored to live, at Meryl's suggestion we all tucked our shirts in, to mark the occasion with proper respect. It was a fun outing to my old neighborhood!
