    The make-a-wish foundation could use some help with calendar sales during fiesta. The times are like 5am to 10am on the big days like Saturday. Would anyone be willing to help out with that? They only have a couple of volunteers so far and could use some extra help.

    No can do. Little man still has football practice. If they win their game saturday, they make the playoffs. Looks like Balloon Fiesta isn't in the cards for me this year.

    I could help with the make-a-wish calendar sales if you still need volunteers. I couldnt do it this weekend but next weekend I could help. And if theres anything else you guys need extra people let me know I could see if I could fit it in my schedule.

    It was a cool time! Nothing fell off my TK so I'm happy about it! It was a new experience for me and I had a blast!!!!

    I taped channel 4 and 7 but didn't catch 13. It is on tape though and I don't have a way to transfer it to digital. I'm sure someone will have gotten a copy though.

    If anyone is going on Wednesday for the Mass ascension? Please let me know as I don't want to be the only one there in armor. If no one else if going, I'll just assist with the chase crew.

    Thanks,

    I was glad to talk to you this weekend, George! I look forward to meeting you tomorrow night!

    I'll bring my mag light too. Don't want to have to use it as a club, but at least it'll give some light!

    The girls in the Photo Lab at my store came across a pic of the Vader balloon someone didn't want and gave it to me. Damn, it's awesome.
