Don, you have absolutely nothing to bitch about. I HANDED you the "equalizer"
tablet at Saturday's dinner, and you were sitting right next to Jim! Letting
him switch glasses on you was completely unpardonable.
The 8 (??, I couldn't count, I was carsick) cone slalom *was* a bit much, but I
must say it was nice to be able to get the slalom practice in. I found at the
McKamey school this year that although I always thought I did slaloms pretty
well, in fact I sucked at them. The extra opportunity probably built tons of
character, though not as much as handing Jim the "Fast SS Time on Sunday" pool
money. I have no idea what I'm going to do with all this character, but I'm
sure I'll think of something.

Don't bother waking up, Don, the nightmare just continues. ;)
