    There are hotels within 3 miles of me and rates are very reasonable.

    If enough people say they are coming, we can try and pull a group rate too. But we'd need people to book time.

    The area has much more to do than just get poofaced in somebody's backyard too so if you want to make a vacation out of it, there's plenty more to do.

    The crucifix came straight from The Vatican, blessed by Pope John Paul himself!

    The mirror is cursed, though. All I ever see in it is me. That's not a bonus any way you cut it.

    It took me 3 tries to remember my password, but I got logged in.

    Youse mind if I show up? Haven't had some fine Polk Audio socialization in a few years.

    Given my retired status this year, I am kinda keen on attending. Would you all have me?
    I can bring my Monitor 9As if anyone's suitably curious ;-)

    I thought at first that the primates were the well-off howling monkeys that we have on the forum. The ones that HOOOOWL when somebody in this country gets 50 cents for free, and they don't.

    Well, at least he went for the full body wax prior.

    The lacey thong is a nice touch, too.
