The Gipsy Kings and The Mamas and The Papas






Brian and I saw The Gipsy Kings at Ravinia last night. I even got Brian to dance a little.

Good news: yesterday I spent the day searching for two people who had decided to ride out hurricane Katrina. My coworker’s parents live in Gulfport, MS, and she hadn't heard from them in a few days. Yesterday, the task was given to me to try and find her mom and dad. So I spent yesterday working with local television stations, newspapers, The Salvation Army, The Red Cross, and FEMA. I heard news this morning that her parents are doing fine. One house on their block is still standing, and they are taking shelter there with some of their neighbors.

I am proud to work for a company that will make finding a mom and dad top priority for the day.
