Sooooooo... What should we bribe billyskank and tjwmason with to get them

I've got a limited edition Precious Moments bride and groom cake topper I can start off with...



**** And bigs hugs for both of them for making DU such a nice place to be in the early AM. ****

1. How about a 2 foot white ceramic cat?
You think that would entice them? Maybe we could auction off the items on ebay and just buy their plane tickets with the proceeds.

9. 2007 huh. Well I hope you've scheduled a month or so because I'd
hate to see the fight we're gonna have over you, lol. Check in with Joani she can bring you to Ohio/Michigan I'll drive you to New Mexico (stopping to see all the Du'ers along the way) and you can meet a much less stressed person and she can take you to California.

So how much do you appreciate me planning your trip. lol:evilgrin: :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals:

2. My dear MrsG
It is certainly not a matter of incentive. I dearly wish to meet you and hug you for real. And there are a number of other DUers I want to see also.

It is a question of vacation time: mine is all allocated for this year. I have pencilled in a trip to the States for 2007 - that is the earliest I think I can manage.

:hug: :loveya: :* :hug:

21. billyskank, thank you for the wonderful thread!

:loveya: I guess that's what I needed to keep me coming back. Sometimes I tend to drift away becoming invisible unless someone special notices before I'm gone.

22. I was taking a little bit of a break.

It looks like I'll be flying down to Florida ( silly old Amtrak doesn't have any sleeper cars on the east coast line :grr: ) in June.
Will you still be there?

24. June?
Maybe, but probably not. When in June? We definitely won't be here past the 15th ... unless the buyer can't get his financing and we're back at square one. (Please don't wish that on us.) What dates will you be here? Do you already have your tickets?

27. I don't have my tickets yet.

Phil wants to take me to his favorite little getaway in the Keys. He said the weather will be about the same but the place should be empty after Memorial Day is past.
I was thinking (and wishing) that you might be lucky enough to bug-out early. If that happens I'll see you at your new place for sure if I miss you in Florida.
