Is that a "plain" brown envelope? No return address. Please use only the new style $100's.

(Just trying to help you be more clear, Bob)

(When guenmai gets back to the computer and checks in here, she'll be soooooo pleased that we are all concerned about her)

Count me in for $100. It's in four Seasons gift certificates. Who would have ever thought Bob and I would contribute to the same cause?

I'm sending in $500,000! I mean really, isn't guen worth at least that? Mine will be the donation in the floral on gold silk jewelry bag from SJ. I know Guen will approve.

It's just like a banker to generaously offer to contribute and then not put up. Plus, this is likely to be his only contribution of the year. Why not give to one of the few people that can tolerate him?

Plus, I was brought up to say thank you to every contribution and not judge the level of someone's generosity. I guess they don't have manners in Needham.

I don't think you need to free Guen. She's freed herself and on her way to Paris!

Thanks for that wonderful news. I'm glad guen isn't being humiliated in the Pasadena Prison. Paris is MUCH better!

Have a wonderful trip, guen!!

BTW, now, she'll really need our donations. Just think of the dollar to euro exchange rate!!

Carol

That's certainly true, Carol. The exchange rate is so bad, I'm not even looking at Europe until the dollar strengthens or hell freezes over, whichever comes first.

Have none of you read Kafka? A trip to Europe is not necessaily incarceration free.

Gpanda, not everyone follows your lead in bringing along a volume or two of Kafka on vacation for light reading.

I figure it's light packing if I don't bring his collected works.
