December 7, 201015 yr comment_409436 There's a cigar place in Ybor that'll serve your needs brilliantly and give you all those choices until about 1 AM, Grahame. King Corona, easily walkable from New World Brewery and right across the street from the pizza place. Report
December 8, 201015 yr comment_409455 Wow, the excitement is building! A bit of work to finish off tomorrow morning and I am off to Grahame's to begin this epic. Report
December 8, 201015 yr comment_409497 Eating Me Ma's Alaskan Tacos sounds a bit dirty. Agreed on the old In-N-Out is better then eating 5 guys. No time for the old in and our now. Alex, my droogie, you are a very sick man. Carl, you should consider driving straight to Skipper's if you miss the ride from the hotel. I think I'd asked you before if you'd been, but can't remember your answer. If not, I think you'll love the place. When we went to that dive with the jamband in Lauderdale I instantly recognized how much it was like Skipper's compressed to a strip mall. Same overall quality/structural integrity/vibe, but with a roomy space with a huge tree in the middle. Sounds like a plan. A big Alligator Alley with a tree. I'm there. We're there, actually, since Bonnie will be with us Friday night. Report

A fun place. I think I will be arriving Friday instead of Thursday and leaving early Monday morning. I probably will not get up there before 9 so I will probably have to meet you guys at Skippers.

You're not going to Bern's with the grown-ups?! Come on, we'll catch up with the jambanders after a nice dinner. Who says it doesn't get cold here. Ice on my windshield this morning: BTW, did you snort that rail after chopping and lining it up so nice. Report

BTW, did you snort that rail after chopping and lining it up so nice. I am not arriving until 9 at the earliest. It looks like I am arriving Friday night instead of Thursday. Besides, I have to grown up all the time. This weekend is a chance to not be grown up. You can have your fancy dinner. I'm jambanding with the regular folk. I tried to snort it but it melted before I could get a $20 rolled up. Report
December 8, 201015 yr comment_409667 In this meet's honor I'm going to get fucking drunk this weekend once I've cleared my way through most of my semester exams. Good 1,200th post? Report
December 8, 201015 yr Author comment_409681 Outstanding 1200th, Bryan, and we are honored by your homage. Report

December 9, 201015 yr comment_409707 I'll have my Sig with me and a bunch of ammo in case we go shoot or zombies attack. I'm good with either. Report
December 9, 201015 yr Author comment_409727 Saturday is up to you, Jeff. Whatever you want, you get. There will be a semblance of a meet going on, but extracurriculars and breakouts are encouraged. Blond Nihilist Thug: [holding up a bowling ball] What the fuck is this? The Dude: Obviously you're not a golfer. Report
December 9, 201015 yr comment_409742 I'm going to bring one rig, two guns, three pair of shoes, four boxes of ammo, and lots of cash. That should make for a good weekend as far as I can figure. Report
December 9, 201015 yr comment_409750 I will wait for the photography peeps to weigh in before I decide to bring a bunch of gear or a P&S. I'll bring my eyes and ears in case I decide to rent some hardware and shoot with the crew. Report
December 9, 201015 yr comment_409752 I tried to snort it but it melted before I could get a $20 rolled up. I thought you were supposed to smoke ice, not snort it. Or maybe I missed a memo........ Report

December 9, 201015 yr comment_409822 I am bringing the PS-1s and some portable stuff. Any reason to bring the TTVJ FET-A or the luvdunhill Amp of a Thousand FETs? The latter requires a balanced source. Gene, please advise. Report
December 9, 201015 yr comment_409826 I crammed an amazing amount of stuff into my carry-on bag - including my Nikon D300S to help cover the photography angle. It was easier to pack my Gilmore Lite so that's coming instead of the Avenson HPA, but still bringing the rDac and ES10. Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday, this will be awesome. I'm checking out Busch Gardens & St. Petersburg Pier on Friday, and probably the Florida Aquarium & downtown Tampa on Sunday - if anyone wants to join on either day, let me know. (Going to be offline starting tomorrow - but Peter, Justin, Matt, & Ari have my cell #.) Report
