Pat -

We welcome you back!  

Most of you know already that Pat sponsors the most unique FQP award each 
year.  The non-FL op who works the most mobiles gets a nice assortment of 
authentic Louisiana Hot Sauce, and not just one bottle either!  That award was very 
hotly contested, so to speak, in the 2005 FQP, results of which are being 
prepared in typical timely fashion (I take full responsibility for that).  
Contained in those results will be the usual charts showing which counties had the 
least participation and therefore the most need for ops.  

Less than 5 weeks left until FQP 2006!  PLEASE note the dates on your 
calendars.  April is a 5-weekend month this year and the FQP is on the 4th weekend 
(22-23), not the 5th/last weekend.
