[alfa] welcome to Seattle...

[Tessie McMillan <tessmc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Biba, it's also possible to set your [ALFA] delivery to individual 
messages, rather than digest. That's one way for Gordy's quick 
response. (Don't you hate it when they show how the movie guys did 
something? The Italian Job was like that.)

But aside from that, please don't feel alone! You will be welcome in 
Seattle too!

In addition to all the normal activities one would expect at a national 
convention, we'll also be holding a Moonlight Madness Concours -- a la 
Gary Patitz, emphasis on the "Madness" (um, for the Concours, not to 
describe Gary Patitz). This is where everyone and or anyone can walk away 
the winner, because the only SURE thing between you and winning a "trophy" 
will be knowledge of our judges' particular bribing preferences and/or a 
fanatical attention to the "theme" of the event (which has yet to be 
decided). In the runup to preplanning (ha, that sounded pretty funny) for 
this event, Gary told us of a story where one contestant stuck a fully 
decorated X-mas tree through the sunroof of his Milano to celebrate a 
"Xmas in July" theme. Now that's the kind of enthusiasm we will want to 
see. &:-) (But probably a different theme.) 

I'll hold off advertising that little bit of interest when Gordy 
advertises the Potlatch as a whole. But... as an aside... folks should 
feel free to contact me off-list about this. We want this to be a CHEAP 
SOCIAL event that everyone will want to participate in. Biba, you could 
enter a "time capsule" Alfa... how about it?
