So far, Lori, it's just us.  Let's definitely meet!  Of this whole list, is
anyone else there going? Did I miss something?

Aw, come on, you guys....come play in May!  A Museum Trade Show!  Isn't that
the coolest form of play-while-you-work?...(well, maybe an archeological dig
would be awesome)...but this, to me, is totally decadent.  I just may wear
lipstick!

P.S.  Because beer is fattening and looks disgusting.  Nope.  I've really
never had a beer.  Gonna die that way, too.  Other liquor, yes.  Beer?
Forget about it.
