Hi, This is Kim Virgin, and I am so sorry I missed the reunion. I am living in Bend Oregon and could not get the time off. The pictures look great, but I am not sure who some are. My Buddies from school, Terri Fragale and Terese Frye still beautiful. You all look so good. But names with the pictures would be good.
Steely Dan, Aja! What an amazing record -- and one that inspired the name of my 8 year old daughter! Steely Dan is playing live at the Nokia on July 23rd.
Aw man, I wish you'd told me you were coming -- I would have found you! Thanks for the compliment -- now we've got to see if anyone in San Diego will show up on 6/13!
I have sent in my check and am booked for the Reunion. I know that Jesse Upegui has his money in too! I have posted on Cougartown to let others know it is time to send in their checks. All the rest of you please start SENDING IN YOUR CHECKS AND BOOKING YOUR ROOMS! There is still much to do to make sure this is a great party.
