Sorry about the bad grammar, placement, and linkage. I went cut/paste happy.
Wrote the draft on the fly. The Margarita's would be non-alcoholic, remembering the shoestring : ) . More of a refreshment idea, then a brain cell killer. I got the gist it would BYOB on the booze, while you guys provide the caffeine. .. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4:23:34 PM 4/5/04 >>> Kristie Carter wrote: > Attached is a "rough" draft of positions needed.
