Not five minutes ago, I walked out of the master bedroom bathroom and saw my mom confused over her new alarm clock. Just an ordinary, boxish-type alarm clock, and she exclaimed, "The alarm just went off but when I came to turn it off, I couldn't find anything. I hit the snooze button to stop it...will that make it stop? How come there's no off switch?" She tossed it back and forth between her hands as she studied all five sides of the alarm clock. So I took it from her hands and quickly turned it to show her that elusive sixth side, undoubtedly housing the off switch to the alarm. Hallelujah. I chuckled to myself as I walked away, but the laughter quickly turned to ponderous thought as I started to worry over how old my parents are starting to get. But before I could open any more of Pandora's Box, I decided to turn my thoughts to happier things, which brings me to the point of this thread.

Well folks, I've done it. Been here not quite one and a half years, but I've (finally?) been promoted. After the crappy week I had dealing with my stolen gym bag and its contents, the timing for this couldn't be better. Now to really grab your attention: who wants free food?? Let's do Friday evening. Happy Hour, a pleasant dinner, a round of drinks...let's decide together, but whatever the case, it's on me. I DO have limited money, so let's not get unreasonable, but take advantage if you dare. An email to go around this week to get things going, but start firing ideas around. See you Friday!

P.S. Thanks for the books, Vic. My mom was confused when she saw the box was addressed to "Kevin Gary Woo."
