Lmao!

If he pays you back by Saturday, bring it to ED and I'll "invest" it for you.

So my Droid weather thingy tells me it's like 27 degrees in Seattle today. Is that correct or did I misread the barometer? It was 97 here today - that's crazy.

ps: I'm arriving tomorrow afternoon.

Where's SiD ???????

Er, um, um, say there Iman, please let me know exactly what time they're comin' as my mistress will be with me. Last time you sent them it was an awkward moment and I had to explain that they worked for you and needed some tax info for their job. Not sure she bought it.

Thanks for the well wishes - my goal is not to come in next to last place again.

Convert it to Canadian and Australian currency and buy some of their mutual funds, payable in their currency.
