My son has lots of soccer tournaments in Phx and we found the Drury a really nice, newer, affordable hotel with indoor/outdoor pool and excellent free breakfast. I think they have free happy hour drink coupons as well.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm sorry I derailed the thread. We should talk about something else... How about the fact that my son, home from finishing his first year at University of Chicago, my 14 year old daughter, and my 11 year old son have hijacked the family room for the last 24 hours to watch "Christmas in July" on QVC. They definitely put life in perspective for me... That's not true they confuse the heck out of me, but I think they are so entertaining. What about you? Ever watch/buy from QVC or the Home Shopping Channel?

I think I am ready to tell someone, and since I've actually met a few of you and think so highly of our visits... My son, Troy, passed away June 16, 2009. He was 27 and battled testicular cancer. He was Mini corps F-12. I am devasted...

Sorry I'm late... Exie! Happy birthday, darlin'!

I heard one of the daughters is in San Diego going to school. I'll see if I can find out more detailed info...

Reported today ...Chris is in talks for his own show... They asked him!

"Taffeta, darling." "Taffeta, sweetheart." "No, the dress is taffeta. It wrinkles so easily." You're up, WW. :)

I am sure it is correct so here is my quote: "Oh darling. I'll count the hours that you're away...not the lips...I'm going to that party at nine, you'll smear my lipstick."

Goonies!

I think that those who have seen a trickle of truth in their lives or who have learned a truly meaningful lesson of some kind would be silly to think they can "master" life or get all they need out of it in one lifetime...I find the more I learn the more I need to learn... So, I think reincarnation is possible...

I of course I'm looking to purchase a house where the gays are buying. Those folks do amazing things for property values. Nothing like the eye of a good homosexual to revitalize neighborhoods and add curb appeal. Fabulous! And look no kids! I mean since we are generalizing it's okay to say that right?

WW, The first place I look is http://foundationcenter.org . You can use the free search by state, zipcode or name. The key is to pull up their IRS 990 form. On that you can find (usually page 9) giving history, deadlines, if they accept unsolicited proposals and guidelines. You can also find who they funded that year and see if you are the type of group they will consider. Some even include a copy of their application as an attachment.

I am a grant writer. Perhaps I can help. What do you want to know?

I knew him from Escondido AGES ago, so it's quite possible he is still there. Hi Exie!
