Allright, who scheduled this when I have to be in Yangon? It was funny to see my smiling face in the picture posted by Phil!

Remember to wash your car on the way over, and don't eat anything, did you see those pizza's?

It doesn't matter how long you have been caring for your car, you will learn a lot.

You know, you can always jump on Southwest. They'll get you down there much quicker and more economically than driving . . .

Ikea sounds good to me. 7:15? I don't really think we'll be docked much for being slightly tardy at the class. 8am is EARLY!
