Hmmm..........

As a practicing Phrenologist, perhaps I may be permitted to take precise measurements of the heads of your attendees, in order to gather data and advance the art of this very important branch of Science. The results of this study may aid parents to identify the phenotypic characteristics of latent Audiophilism in their children and allow them to take the drastic measures necessary to counter this dreaded genetic mutation.

I remain your most humble servant,

Should be a good time this weekend at the DIY fest. I may be bringing along a drummer from a mainstream Canadian band if he has some time to spare.

(almost) everyone is welcome to attend, but depending on age and medications, there's no guarantee about the second part

Dr Ward - thank goodness the mutations you describe, and to which I'm on the wrong end of the lottery, are known to skip a generation or two - otherwise my kids would be doomed

As I've not been able to reach your receptionist, can I reserve an appointment for say, after dinner on Friday eve? In order to make appropriate plans, including sheltering of financial assets, my dear and very patient wife of 37yrs deserves an assessment of deterioration to be anticipated during the next decade.

Well, I hope you boys and girls are having a good time already. My stuffs by the door ready for an early morning departure. 7am ferry takes about 2 hours plus a half hour drive at the other end, puts me at your place before 10.

Can't wait to see y'all there. Especially Todd. I think you'll find I'm friendlier in person than as a moderator.

Cheers everyone, see you in the morning.

[Pano]

Have fun everyone. Wish I could be there!

U found a pro musician that can get up and around before noon???

Before you ask - the answer is yes, I do know what I'm talking about!
