would have LOVED to have seen you again...felt like "home" talking with you :D:

the next time you come out this way do let us know :) ...

Yeah, but I'm not in complete control of my work schedule (at any of my three jobs), so I have to accept that.

It was refreshing to meet someone who doesn't think Charlie Tuna is a cartoon character.... :charlie:

I expect my next trip to DL will be a major production, thanks to the gang here. Unlikely I'll be able to slip in and out of town unnoticed. :D:

Zazu wrote:Ah.... no.

This is what I meant about knowing that Charlie Tuna *wasn't* a cartoon character. Only old-timers from the LA area are likely to know about him.

And no, this Charlie doesn't make sandwiches.

And I'm sure he makes sandwiches from time to time :p: . Though he probably doesn't resemble a giant blue tunafish :D: .
