Sounds like I need to just ship Christine the meat, that'll force her and Ian to go.

Chris, glad to hear Ian is doing better. I haven't been a very good cyber friend to anybody lately as I've had a pretty full slate going on. Looks like I might go from a supervisor/manager of the lab I work for and become an owner. My co worker and I are working on a deal with the company to purchase the Prudhoe Bay division of the laboratory I've worked for. We recently went through a company wide merger in October, and their management practice is running this place into the ground. At least they know it, and are going to make us an offer this week on purchasing the assets of this lab and transfering the contracts.

I hope you guys have a great meet. I was looking through pictures before I headed back up north and found the ones from the breakfast in Maryland back in March of last year, and the dinner with Chris and Ian in WV. I still remember Ian flirting with the waitress... got to keep an eye on that little stud. [8D]
