Count me in!

Well, I have made my reservations at the Holiday Inn, in Jonesboro. For Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday. I am way ready for a road trip!

Orrin


John Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN ) for 6am. While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA ) was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG ). He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA ), designer jeans MADE IN SINGAPORE ) ...and watch (MADE IN TAIWAN ) to the radio (MADE IN INDIA ). He got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY ) filled it with GAS from Saudi Arabia ) and continued his search for a good paying AMERICAN JOB. At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day checking his Computer(Made In Malaysia), Joe decided to relax for a while. He put on his sandals (MADE IN BRAZIL ) poured himself a glass of wine (MADE IN FRANCE ) and turned on his TV (MADE IN INDONESIA ), and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job in AMERICA - Hmmmmm go figure

Hey Orrin, glad you got your room! Everyone needs to realize that this is a holiday weekend and they need to book ASAP. Did you hear me Donna-Dave?Anyone?
As for the rest of your e-mail I also have harsh feelings towards Walmart. That's all I will say about that because once I get started I get irratable.

Orrin, can't wait to see ya!

Interesting little story, come to think of it, I don't see a lot of labels that say made in the USA these days.

Is Joe related to John? Yep, we wonder where all the jobs have gone. Just check out the labels.

Orrin, I really looking forward to seeing you...and ALL the others! Sorry I haven't gotten back about the "Who DUNNIT" yet. As usual, too much work and no play. But I'm really going to get into it soon. (Right after quarterly taxes, water bills, accounts payable, typing minutes, and fighting with the chief of police. Do you think he might sense I'm after his job??!! Seriously, He is a big cream puff with a huge ego that I refuse to submit to and it kills his soul! ....and before you even think it, no, I'm not ascared he will give me a ticket--after all, I write his pay checks!

Your sister IS still planning on coming, right? Staying with her son? I hope so! I hope ALL your sisters make it (and of course brother Cory!!!)
