The Funny Farm

Dude, I'm writing this about 7 hours after you left. I just wanted to say thanks again for coming. I wish we had more time to party. Between you, party hound #1 & party hound #2*, things got kinda wild :)

We'll get together again. I enjoyed it.

PS. Tequilafest Dallas this winter?

Hey Bart!

Just recovering from long day of driving to let you know I made it back to the homestead okay. I should probably write about a gazillion and a half words about all the fun I had in Vegas as the first to get there and one of the last to leave - but what goes on in Vegas, stays in the files of Homeland Security Vegas.

I managed to get home at 6AM this morning (Eastern time) - making each trip in under 40 hours (driving time). It would have been nice to have a naggravator to ride shotgun and pilot for a few of those hours, but it's not the first time I've made the trip solo, and it probably won't be the last. It's too bad that, with double occupancy and increased flight hassles (and a wondrous machine that gets around fifty miles to the gallon), it was cheaper for me to drive than it was to fly. Too bad for the airline companies and the travel agents who sell package deals.

Plus I got to go to the Land Of Cheap Tequila and bring home a very nice selection of anejos to the Funny Farm. I'm sampling that Don Julio 1942 right now in one of my BartCop Chinaco shot glasses. Mas finas!

Thanks for hosting the party, and the fun times all around the events that we shared. I look forward to the next pokerfest / tequilafest that I can afford to take the time and effort to attend. We'll get together besides that anyways. I enjoyed it more than should be humanly allowed for a mere mortal. See you again soon!

(: Tom :)

P.S. I don't do Tax-Ass, Flori-Duh, and only rarely consider spending anything at all in a red state. I don't think I have the time off either - unless it's a weekend thing and I fly in. And I don't like to fly. But stranger things have happened... talk to me when I have recovered a bit more.
