    I don't know if I'll have enough money to get there, yet, so I'm not letting myself get too "stoked"
    Ludicrous gibs!

    I'm in the same boat Noah but I got that overwhelming sense of STOKEDNESS!!! Worst case scenario, I'll make it a day trip with Phil and Maria!

    I just posted that I'm bringing some BBQ ribs to Lous', just thinking about that has me antsy for the trip!
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    I am stoked! Been working a lot lately and I need a release, PF fits the bill perfectly.

    Just drumming up some interest. Obviously, from the looks of things, some are living under rocks.

    Actually, due to their size, it would be more correct to refer to them as "stones".

    I'm trying not to let that keep me from going this year. Since it's so close to me I might be able to pull it off.

    I missed Troy's due to being broke and was totally pist off for weeks.

    Wish i could go just to see if you talk as much crap in person as you do behind that keyboard of yours. But being a single dad I have more important things to worry about. Wonder how long it would take you to get a diamond if you cram a piece of coal you know where.....

    BTW I prefer Coors Light when im not drinking my Hefe's. Nice try though.

    Phil, I missed your call and called you back last night and left a message. Perhaps after 5:00 PM or so tonight we can hook up on the phone.

    I have two options open to me to get there and I'm counting you as one. We'll talk more about it on the phone.

    Unless something catastrophic occurs I'm not missing this one.

    What days are you planning to go? I'm going I just haven't figured out my start and end day yet--I'm thinking Friday and Saturday but who knows maybe Sunday too.
    Either way-I could always swing down the road to pick you up-your what probably 15 miles from me?

    Tough guy, huh? Congrats. You're my first threat this year.

    Kinda empty one though 'cause you're not going and all. But I'M the "keyboard commando", huh?

    I will speak from a general standpoint here. Anyone coming to Polkfest for the purposes of backing up internet tommy tuffnuttery against anyone, will be met with the harshest of sanctions on site.

    I take the sanctity of my home very seriously gentlemen.


    besides, those thinking Jon will be a scaredy cat in person will be let down in that regard anyway.

    if you want to press it at another venue, good luck with that.

    pressing it at my house will be a dissapointment on many levels.

    Was no threat there, turbo. Get over yourself. Curiosity got the best of me wondering if you really are an **** in real life as you are on here. I'm betting yes, and now that i think about it, I could care less.

    John, for what it's worth, you escalated this situation with your quote above. Just calling a spade a spade. Leave it out and this thread goes on just fine. Why rehash old stuff just for the sake of getting a jab in? Leave well enough alone and don't threadcrap on a Polkfest thread that has nothing to do with your personal feelings about other members. Just saying.....
