May 28, 200917 yr usually the outlets are limited to 25W or so. And cruise altitude is closer to 30,000 ft.
May 28, 200917 yr Blech. Bad weather in Atlanta. Still sitting in West Palm Beach Sitting with delays.
May 28, 200917 yr Wuhoo! There's a better than slight chance I'll be swinging by the hotel ~1pm on Friday, anyone going to be around? If so look for the tall, pasty white guy sucking down drinks in the bar. With any luck, I will be there before then. You have my #. Call when you get to the hotel. I'll be the tall, not so pasty guy having a beer with you.
May 28, 200917 yr packing gear and loading the car now, should be there between 2-4 depending on traffic
May 28, 200917 yr With any luck, I will be there before then. You have my #. Call when you get to the hotel. I'll be the tall, not so pasty guy having a beer with you. If you guys can pace yourselves till 2:30ish, you'll be joined by a third thirsty tall-y.
May 28, 200917 yr If you guys can pace yourselves till 2:30ish, you'll be joined by a third thirsty tall-y. And if your still standing by 3:30 you can be joined by a short fat guy.
May 28, 200917 yr If you guys can pace yourselves till 2:30ish, you'll be joined by a third thirsty tall-y. As I understand it, once you arrive, I am no longer considered tall. The idea is to re-enact the SJ National, which requires a trip to the beach, hitchhike and get a ride in the back of a pickup truck. Having said that, we will probably be at the bar when you arrive. And if your still standing by 3:30 you can be joined by a short fat guy. Do you know this short fat guy? If so, we will have no problem drinking with him until you arrive.
May 28, 200917 yr This taller fat guy will be there at noon, though I might have a head start downing as much free airline booze as I can on my way there.
May 28, 200917 yr The VanJam team is assembling ... JP11801, NightWoundsTime, Voltron, Cetoole, and meself had a few brews then attended last night's Giants vs Braves game at AT & T - amazing evening that started here: JPnums, Voltron, and Cetoole pounding Wonderful stuff Picked up Trice after the game, and pounded a few more at Toronado (thanks for the detour, Al), now back at Mayberry for a few hours rest. Who knows what today may bring.
May 28, 200917 yr Mmm, booze. Packing the cans, and bottles, as we speak. Er, type. Edited May 28, 200917 yr by Hopstretch
May 28, 200917 yr Know y'all will have a great time. Someone have a scotch for me. Perhaps another year.
May 28, 200917 yr Right on! You guys and gals are going to have a blast. I look forward to a detailed play-by-play, even if incoherent. Pictures are a must. And I'll know to board a plane and start billing if I see any mug shots. Safe travels to all of you.
May 28, 200917 yr After last night's frivolity, I got a good solid 4 hours of sleep before waking up at 5:30am to get on a conference call for work. Excedrin is a good thing, is all I'm saying. Still on the call, but taking a detour to check out the state of affairs. Gene is awake and the rest of the crew in Mayberry is still snoring away. After this call, we have time to play around the Bay, we will pick up the VanJam Sprinter, and check out Jenny Lewis and The Sadies at the Fillmore (West). Perhaps a beverage or two will be consumed along the way. Know y'all will have a great time. Someone have a scotch for me. Perhaps another year. A scotch?! Ha ha ha ha!

May 28, 200917 yr I just spoke to Dom and I am pretty certain he is a go. Cool. We got to him while we were at the game last night. The power of the plus a little scholarship was a powerful combination! Tell Jenny I love her long time. Maybe I will print out one or your drinking thread self-portraits and try to get her to rub herself with it.
May 28, 200917 yr Cool. We got to him while we were at the game last night. The power of the plus a little scholarship was a powerful combination! I want in on contributing to the scholarship. stevieo also told me this morning, after I woke him up, that he is arriving tonight.
May 28, 200917 yr I want in on contributing to the scholarship. stevieo also told me this morning, after I woke him up, that he is arriving tonight. OK, probably will need to talk to Gene on the $. We also talked to stevieo and he spilled that he was coming. This meet is truly going to be like the Harmonic Convergence, although more powerful than that turned out. Dinny better get on that plane just in case...
May 28, 200917 yr I cannot start meet impressions because that is Matt's job, but I think we should merge over some pictures and have an official impressions thread. Anyway, here is how the MOAR team was greeted on arrival here at 12:30 this morning: While I have been on this ongoing conference call, Gene has been clawing away at his laptop and then Stephen came down to join him for some coffee shandies: Ah, the breakfast of champions: More MOAR to come.
May 28, 200917 yr Damn I want to be there so bad. There's still time! Just say whether you can make the time, and we will figure out how to make it happen!
May 28, 200917 yr No possible way. Relay for life tomorrow -> saturday. Saturday I pickup the engagement ring, and Sunday I leave for Block Island where I am proposing. Maybe next year
