Hello all!
For those of us from the US, does anyone have anything special planned for this weekend? Memorial Day (for our International posters) in the US is ostensibly a day (last Monday in May) set aside to honor our fallen heroes. It's also one of the biggest party weekends in the country, and, among other things, the start of the summer barbecuing season. I'm going to be at home, barbecuing a brisquet. I'm going to be trying out a new recipe, hopefully, it will work out well. |

Alot of my friends are in the service, and we are all getting together at my house to have a barbecue. Just going to relax, go swimming, barbecue, and oh yeah, drink.

I'm going to my sister's house in Fargo North Dakota for a couple days. Have to return to attend many high school graduation parties tho. Not too exciting, but it's something.

Wow, we haven't made any plans!
Will have to see what the weather is like...maybe it is time to re-new my acquaintance with the Gulf of Mexico! Moni ------------------ P.S. Do let us know how your new recipe turned out! [This message has been edited by Moni (edited 05-22-2001).] |

Tis a day for grilling for sure. Unfortunately, I have to work a couple hours in the morning, but then have the rest of the day off for family and good food.

Well here in California, since it's freakin hot!!!, me and a couple of my friends are going to Raging Waters. A day of swimming, sliding, but that just reminds me i have to do some AB rollers. Getting little flabby
------------------ That's just my opinion, I could be wrong. |

Well, hopefully I will be holding my new born son.
Otherwise, my wife and I will be doing a lot of walking. |
