I think you should reply to his email with "brevity is the soul of wit" as your inspirational quote.

Hahahah! OMG, that would be awesome. Possibly not diplomatic, but awesome.

P-C, they really should've come up with a better excuse, because that was bad. Dang.

It was my sister's idea. She knew it was the only way I'd come down.

Vacation!! We hit the road at 2:30am and are almost halfway to Vegas. Ahhhhhhh.

Have a wonderful time! Be sure and include updates so we can be adequately jealous.

Wow, quiet thread. We have arrive in Vegas, purchased tickets for The Kings Feast and Thunder Down Under. When we checked in the guy gave us a much nicer room than we had expected. Top Floor with a view of the strip. Once we get our bags, we are spiffing up and going in search of trouble.

Right on, Suzi! Have fun!

I went to the King's Feast too. Awesome.

OK, this is too priceless to not share. College memories. Well, sort of. Freshman year, my first roommate was a tool and a half. I befriended a senior at the end of the hall. He shared this gem, that I really do not recall.

Surprised you don't remember. I had the same cheesy stereo and the remote worked his too. I'd jump out the window, jack up the volume on his through your window, jump back in my room, and wait for him to come back. He only yelled at you so often I felt bad and had to let you in on it. You told me to keep it up. So I did. I'd hear him coming, hit the window, run to yours and wait for him to turn his stereo on. Then I'd turn it off. And repeat. And again. And sometimes hit the mute, and take it off after he jacked up the volume thinking it was set too low. I had a lot of fun.

Oh, there is nothing quite like the evil that dorm dwellers inflict on each other.

OMFG. Thunder Down Under - got motorboated, a lap dance, and got pulled up on stage for a fake orgasm contest. I came in second, got a hat, poster, and took a picture with the boys. Damn those men are fine.
