So we don't have any Pentaxians in the Big Easy??? Oh well ...
for those of you who want to follow the Scrabble action once the tourney starts on Sunday you can go to http://www.scrabble-assoc.com/tourneys/2004/nsc/index.html There is usually a bit about it in the news on Sunday night, too. I'll be playing 30 games in Division 2 (of 7 divisions !) and will consider I've done well if I win more than I lose - prize money or no. I'm not really booked up and will be playing on my experience. Before and after the tourney I'll be roaming the area a bit hitting thrift stores and avoiding tourists. Thinking of reading John McPhee's "The Control of Nature" on the plane. :) got my bag, got my insect repelant... See you in August. annsan p.s. hey guys, write me off list as I go along if you are so inclined _ I probably will be able to check some email though I won't have my very own computer with me.
