    Thanks. Don't think I'll ever say it's something I've overcome, as it is still a daily struggle. But certainly in a much better place than when I was in the worst of it.

    I think I was there for that. Was everyone sitting at a big table near the entrance? BW3's in the village right?

    My Dad was on social security and there was some rule stating once he started receiving SS and if he had a child under 18, then that child would receive a payment per month until I turned 18 or graduated HS. I graduated at 17 so thats why I got it for that year.

    Whaaa....????? Not sure what you're talking about, but that wasn't me, dude. I've never met up with other CF people at BW3

    (or.. not that I can remember)

    EDIT: Well, it looks like maybe there was a BW3 meetup a LONG time ago.... don't remember anything about kidneys and Dr. Pepper....

    My 2nd year out of college a bunch of girls escorted my buddy and I into the vip room when we stumbled in after a night drinking at cafe Europa. The dancers laughed at us when we asked for just 1 dance. They wanted like $1000 for a bottle and 4 dances!

    It’s like $15 a dance at oceans!
