Who is going to St. Louis this year?

Not to worry,Smileys driving has improved with age.He has outlived most of his passengers.

However it is advised to wear at least 4-5 pairs of shorts should one be foolish enough to ride in the catbird seat.

TONY
I HAVE IT FROM A GOOD SOURCE THAT YOU WERE SMILEY'S DRIVING INSTRUCTOR.

That source said:
Smiley must have learned to drive on the wrong side in Austrailia. Cause that is where he drives....

That source also said:
Smiley must be contemplating marriage, he will be looking for a wife in St Louis.

Anybody's

Looking for a wife has never been a problem for Smiley.. He has been searching for years.But unfortunatly husbands seem to be a problem.

What are the marriage laws in Mo?Am I safe seeing I have to share a room with him?

Nothing to worry about Joe
I hear the hotel is near an old folks home, Smiley prefers Old Folks Homes, No Husbands or Fathers to stop him. I guess he does practice "Safe Sex" after all.

Joe, with what James said, Look at it this way you could make enough money in St Louis to pay for the room.

Speak for yourself John....Now where have i heard that before?...Remember you are not going and I have to face the wrath of the shorts.

Sure wish I could go, but my budget doesn´t allow it this year... kind of a long trip you know. Last year I had the time of my life and I´m definitely gonna go again. (next year I hope)

Tommy and I will be there! Tommy endorses the ZumSteel and spends most of his time with Bruce at the booth. I will be in an undisclosed location with Anne Marie having Irish chocolates and American beer - It's a GIRL-thing. And of course I'll be spending time with the International Humor group!!!

We're going up for Thursday & Friday only. I've got a good payin Gig scheduled for Saturday Night and I need to play it. We were able to get a room at the Mariott/Downtown, about 2 blocks away from the Convention. Stayed there last year and it wasn't bad at all. See you guys in St. Louis!
