    Thanks Willie! It was one day and Sports Day. I don't do sport. The board said I would miss too many classes. Thats 6 classes in total. I had already agreed to make up the time.
    Then to add insult to injury my dearly beloved principal (up to this morning) decided to announce his retirement at the end of the year. I'm sure he noticed I didn't shake his hand. I can't yet. He could have done this.

    That's awful, GA. I was so hoping you would be able to make the trip!
    I'll still hold out hope for you for some additional shows -- maybe Fallsview again -- so don't let it get you down.

    Shake his hand? I don't think so. Chip in for a retirement gift? I don't think so. Give him a boot in the a$$ on his last day? Absolutely.

    Ga, I'm so sorry this didn't work out for you. Yeah, don't think I could be very nice to your principal either at this point.

    Maybe there is a silver lining in that cloud-Glenn alluded in the interview that he just might plan something across the pond that, maybe, would work out for you. Here's hoping.

    I'm terribly sorry, GA. How unfair.

    Oh Lisa - I am so sorry about this. It amazes me how some people in management positions can be so short-sighted. It's not that hard to figure out that happy workers who feel appreciated are more motivated to go above and beyond. Oh well, keep your chin up, girl and think about what Joanie said.

    Lisa I am sorry you won't be able to make these shows but with Glenn's recent comments, he'll hopefully be coming to you!

    Oh, Lisa! I'm sorry! But maybe it was meant to be. As many others said, there may well be even better opportunities, to see Glenn, coming!

    Yep, I know how are upset you are, Lis, but try to keep your chin up - life is funny and sometimes things work out in ways we didn't expect. I really believe this could leave an opening for an even better opportunity! Try not to get too disheartened. I'm sure your time will come. In the meantime, fantasize about stapling things to Frank's head. Seems to work for me!


    you better put it all behind you, baby, 'cause life goes on
    you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--

    Lol! Troub, that idea definitely cheered me up! I'd love him to know the things people have been saying both on and off the Border about him.

    OK. Time for plan B.

    Does anybody know of any science, maths or education fairs or conferences that will be on in the vicinity of any of these gigs the weekend 18th to 21st May?
