[Lnc-business] training might be in San Francisco February 13 or 20

[Sam Goldstein]

Wes,

If you have the training session on the Feb. 13th weekend you are going to

I am very dedicated to the cause, my marriage is more important and I won't
be available on Valentine's Day!

Live Free,

Sam Goldstein
