Moving right along:
Leah's mail is bouncing again. Can those of you who are local please
check up on her, make sure she's OK, and still with us here. Thanks.
Here are the latest numbers. The "projection" figures are the signup
numbers scaled with some fudge factors which indicate the typical
no-show rates we've been seeing the past couple years. They count only
the registrations we have as of now, and don't attempt to extrapolate
into the future. In other words, if registrations were to totally stop
now, we could expect a realistic total headcount of 62.
Return registrations: 53
Return SO: 11
Return total signup: 64
Return projection: 57
Newcomer registrations: 12
Newcomer SO: 1
Newcomer total signup: 13
Newcomer projection: 5
Total registrations: 65
Total SO: 12
Total signup: 77
Total projection: 62
Almost all of the newcomers continue to be very good about doing the
validation thing. Seems like most of them respond within a few minutes
of getting the mail, and several have added comments like "looking
forward to it", "can't wait", etc.

Latest laundry list:
As you'll see, this list is quite a bit shorter than the last. :)
Things are shaping up very nicely for the most part.
First, there are a couple things where we need to decide whether to
defecate or abdicate.
* Suzi, digital portraits? Is this still a "go"? Any more thoughts on
the logistics and location(s) of this? Could you please let us know if
you're still interested in this or not? Suzi, still with us? Going
twice ...
* Bev, you talked a while back about some kind of a hospitality suite.
Any further thoughts on this? Bev? You in there? (testing tap-tap {blow
in microphone} is this thing on?) :) Going twice ...
. . . . .
Next, can we have updates and status on these items, please:
* Leah? The Hidden Woman Open House. Is this confirmed? Do they plan any
instructional items this year, or just sales? Will it be in a suite at
Sahara as last year? (Can somebody local please check with her on this,
since last Sunday's mailing to her bounced.)
. . . . .
Limo team? How are things coming along? We now have a location and time
for the Thursday show (Venetian, 6:00pm show, let out about 7:30pm) so
the Thursday evening schedule can now be firmed up.
. . . . .
+ 1:30pm Bowling (Bowling alley - MS)
Michelle, any more thoughts of taking this one on? Looks like the
suggested venue (Castaways) is not gonna be there for uh, huh? :)
. . . . .
* Spa day. I'm gonna scratch this one unless somebody grabs it quick.
Going twice ...
* Casino night. Easy one for somebody who wants to take it. Opposite
NSD? Going twice ...
I'm also scratching my planned shopping thing for Friday, too many
other things happening now that HT has been moved to Friday.
. . . . .
Jenni, Nora? How's the Big Sister program coming? Any problems or
issues? Do you have enough BS's to cover the LS's? Do we need to have
another call for volunteers?
. . . . .
Monique, are things all set to go at the Hard Rock on Wednesday?
Leah, are things all set to go at Carluccio's on Friday? (Can somebody
local please check with her. Thanks.)
Thanks, everybody. :)

V show and golf:
A bit of concern about being sure we don't get into a crunch situation
on Thursday with those who want to do both golf and the show.
Aiko has chosen the earlier (6:00pm) performance, partly due to the
limo tour timing issues.
Aiko writes (from a conversation):

Mindy, any thoughts or comments? The schedule of activities on Wednesday
evening is not that intense, so you probably do not risk any significant
fallout with a 9:00 or so tee time.

That vehicle would be perfect to drive out there! Not to let any cats
out of bags, but I think it's safe to say there may be some other
appropriate vehicles there as well. :) :)
