If you're going to be in Albuquerque all weekend and want to sneak away from family for a bit, let me know. There's a couple of us in the area.
I'll be heading out to the Lobo's basketball game but should be home in the evening.

Hey there Moe! It's nice to know that somebody else knows what I'm talking about!
I haven't noticed any glow, but my left arm is longer and my back is angry at me.
