Hey I saw you yesterday! Was good to finally meet you in person!! Thanks for the information.

I know!!!!!!! Its was great seeing you too are you coming. I think KP is.

Hey BigWill! I met you at the Piston's game not too long ago.  I would love to be able to come hear you speak but I have to work.  Please post if you happen to be speaking at another event.   Take care! Carey

Oh Carey, Your the boss, you can take off any time you want..

Oh you think so huh?  Not!  The Doc is the boss.  I'm just the assistant! 

yeah yeah... Just tell him its a business trip. You know all about business trips..

Well I don't think he'd consider a local event a business trip. 

Oh come on... Think a little bit.. Maybe set up a booth for the DR.. Ha Ha... How have you been?

Wouldn't be worth it - too many patients to see.  Was not a good turn out last time.  My only interest would be to listen to BigWill speak.  I've been fine....you?
