ballplayers and some male bonding.
52.7DANGER::ASKETHBeware of Greeks bearing gifts...Thu Feb 27 1997 17:096
Hey Daryll!  The first song in my show is we wives complaining about losing our
husbands to baseball 6 months out of every year!  ;-P  This show was made for
*you* - about this guy who would sell his soul if the Washington Senators would
win the pennant.   ;-)

    	I know the original intent of this note was - "vacationing" -
    however - Shawn's things to smile about note got me to thinking...
    
    	I'd guess more than just Shawn plays softball, so how about if you 
    want a cheering section - posting info here and if we can make it to a 
    game to hoot and hollar, we'll do so...

    	Hi all,
    
    	Been a while since I dropped in, been preety busy with
    	the SAP V 3.0 upgrade.  Just got the word that my business trip
    	to Singapore (Week of May 19th) is a go.  
    
    	Never traveled to the Far East. This should be an adventure. Anyone
    	have any "Jet Lag" tips?
    
    	Current plans call for us to leave on Friday the 16th with a
    	return on May 24th.
    
    	Have a great weekend.
    
    	Mary

    there was a piece in the NYTimes recently (within the last 3 weeks or
    so) detailing how  to deal with jetlag... requires taking melatonin
    on  a *precise* schedule...

52.34MRPTH1::16.121.160.239::slab[email protected]Fri May 09 1997 14:045
Mary, I avoid jet lag by not flying at all.

Hope this helps.  8^)

	Wow.. I just realized that I'll be doing ALOT of travel
	the next few weekends...

	This weekend, the 17th, I'm flying up to Toronto. Saturday
	and Sunday I'll visit my cousin Pat and his family. They
	emmigrated from the UK a number of years ago. I haven't
	seen them in 4-5 years! Monday, I'll leave them and
	head into Toronto for a tradeshow. This time it's
	CTI World. I think it's at the dome or thereabouts.

	I return late next Thursday night. I'll take Friday off
	and Laura and I are headed up North to the ski club for the
	Memorial Day festivities. That should be fun!

	THEN, the following weekend, June 1st, I'm headed to Atlanta
	for Comdex/Windows World. I'll be there till the 5th. I'll
	probably take that Friday off also..

	I'm tired just thinking of all this travel!

    I'm planning on traveling to St. Johns Newfoundland on July 18 of this
    year to attend 3 dog shows.  My father is from Newfoundland and my
    mothers mother was from Newfoundland.  I've never been there but
    looking forward to meeting some of my cousins who do live there.
    
    Has anyone been there?

Thanks Bill.  Looks like it's just gonna be the Asketh girls this weekend - my
sister, my niece and I (ok so it's really the Asketh and Call girls - ummm...ok,
no commments ok?  That is my brother-in-law's last name - Call).  My BIL and
nephew are doing the fishing trip thing.  Just hope I don't hit Maine Turnpike
traffic tonight!!

Oh and don't worry - the souvlaki will be marinading a loooong time so it should
be pretty awesome!  ;-)

    It's been a few years but when you get there you'll love it. St. John's
    is the biggest city but get outif you can to the ports and bays and
    meet some of the people. You won't want to come back....

    James,
    
    I guess I'm also a Newfie; although I wasn't born there but my father
    was and my mother's grandmother also was.  The Pynn River was named
    after my mother's grandfather.  My father and therefore I have
    relatives in Salvage and Happy Adventure.
