brianbibbly [email] said at 6:50 PM 01-18-2006: That would be nice. In fact, I could make it so that I punch Jake in the face WITH a king cake, thus, killing two birds with one stone.
mary [email] said at 11:49 AM 01-18-2006: I am already doing this, leaving Friday with Cory. I'm staying a lot longer than Wednesday, though, so you could fly back if you wanted to ride down with us.
