...because we need one. This is just a thread to relax and chat. Anything goes. There are a lot of us here that get a long very well, even when we disagree. I thought I'd make a place for us to say hey, maybe play some music, and just shoot the shit. We can party here on the 4th. Whatever your choice, win or lose, I think we'll all need a drink.

Oh, I so do > not want to be sick for that. I hope you will b okay. This may sound incredibly brash but I'm not afraid of the swine flu. Its not that I think I am invicible or anything.

Morning all. Nothing is planned for the weekend. I do believe I'm getting Mr. Polar's swine flu. The doc sent tamaflu home with him and I'm on it. Suppossed to be in the 60's this weekend. Oh, I so do not want to be sick for that.
