Can anyone lend me $8.8 million? I'll repay you WITH 15% INTEREST at the rate of $200 per month until I pass away.

I can't believe 43 people have already put a deposit down! Donna are you one of them?

I saw that on Yahoo yesterday and just shook my head. I can't believe they would ever build it much less someone pay that kind of money to go there.

Take care,
Eileen

David,

Until seeing this, the only thing on my bucket list was going to Gulfport and getting your autograph.
