Sorry - that last post was from me. SCAR I'm suffering over here in DC. Got a suite for the Wizards/Heat Game - should be exciting:) I haven't been to a NBA game since I left - figured this would be a good one to brake me back in.

Medic, is it winter 365 up there now or what? I wanted to catch up with you and the Mrs but what a whirlwind trip this was and it was very last minute. I almost didn't even see my mom...She was in church all day with her cell phone off on a Saturday and nobody in my family knew she was there. Anyway, I did the whole Philly thing, cheesesteak, Hoagie, waterice, soft pretzel thing! I love Rita's waterice. I told Mrs SCAR if Rita was a real person I would marry her. She said she understood :wink:

Baldspot you know what I am talking about. I suspect RedDog has been away from PA too long to enjoy Ritas but I bet he likes italian Ice none the less. I actually have never had a gelatti. I love the plain cherry so much that I can't order anything else! I get up to the front expecting to order something exotic and all that comes out of my mouth is "large cherry please."
