tomorrow, early.. earthquake drill at work

our company is doing a mock earthquake/emergency/catastrophe drill early tomorrow morning. All 100 residential properties, plus our commercial properties, are involved. We are each given a specific scenario, and are to prepare to shut off gas, respond to residents stuck in elevators, etc. Corporate has it's upper management divided up into first, second, and third responders to visit inspect during the aftermath, at our properties throughout the Bay Area, Santa Cruz, and Marin Counties. This is our first company test, which will be fine tuned later on, once unforeseen glitches are corrected. Will be interesting to see how this goes.

AI - Matt Goes

All performed excellently. It is interesting to see the change and improvement of all these 5 during this season. Of the top 5 tonight, the weakest was Matt Giraud. I think he will be voted off.
(as for the others, I would love to see Kris and Danny naked :)

:( Sad News....

to those that lived, and shopped in the Castro, and that may know Joe Hardegree, this was just received via Mama, Mama's Family email....

Tribe, I rec'd this from Doug Mezzacapo

To everyone who knows Joe Hardegree:

Joe has been fighting a rare form of cancer for several months now. He has been in and out of the hospital to undergo aggressive chemo therapy. Unfortunately, the chemo has not worked. Any further treatment has a low chance of making a difference, so Joe has decided to face his death with dignity. He believes that he only has a few weeks left.

I know Joe values the love of his friends and you all have given him strength to battle. Now, it's time to give him strength to face the end.

He is going home from the hospital soon. If you have his number, he enjoys receiving calls. But, he is not always up to talking, so please leave him a message. If you want to send him a card, feel free to drop it off at 440 with David Barker the manager.

Joe was working at 440 and Chaps before his illness.He has always been up beat and quick with a joke. Everyone who met him, enjoyed his personality. Let's return his warmth and love.
