Hi Everyone,

Stephanie here.  I just wanted to thank everyone for the well wishes.  It was extremely encouraging reading all the words of support via the blog and email.  I’m still recovering but was back at work today.  So thank you again to everyone!

Now, I also read some comments from people regarding the charity registration.  I know some of you registered directly with the charity, however you need to register with us to ensure you are part of the group.  Carnival will be covering the cost of materials for all our volunteers, so we need to have a final count and everyone’s name.

So here is the registration page again: Sign up to volunteer in New Orleans on Feb. 6.

Thanks again :)

Stephanie

Last night I was watching the Cops program on TV………not the American version where people living in houses with wheels on them have beaten their brother over the head with a ham…..nope, this was the UK version. A young man had been apprehended after he was seen driving erratically and he was, not to put too fine a point on it, incapable of either coherent thought or coherent speech or to give his condition its proper British scientific name……..he was totally sloshed (www.urbandictionary.com) and he had drunk so much beer…. If he had been asked to give blood……….it would have had a head on it.

When the policeman asked if the car was his, he looked like he’d been asked to explain the atomic properties of sulphuric acid. He had the IQ of a tulip, the conversational ability of a frying pan, and the intelligence of his mother who, at the time, was standing outside the police car shouting “Fu%* You!” over and over again.
