    yep, if anyone needs me, I'll be in the bathroom gouging out my mind's eye with a fountain pen.

    This is very suitable.

    My dance card may already be full.

    Unless we do the Greek dances of my youth where everyone is encouraged to join in?

    Yassou!

    Ok, who's bringing any ethnic music?

    Sal,

    My manager says I can do cameos, special guest appearances, stuff like that. I don't know what type "recording" you had in mind.

    Gear? Is there going to be gear there? I thought every square inch would be used up by coolers, kegs, food, etc.

    Hello all -

    Just wanted to check in and let you all know I cannot make it. I told Osh from the start that it was like 75% that I would be able to come, but things have taken a turn for the worse at home. I'm disappointed I can't make it, but priorities are elsewhere right now. Don't have too much fun without me (Or I guess you can) and it's good news for some, cause I'm out fo the AR9 running :) I look forward to pictures.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Too bad Sal lost all his weight. I would have loved to watch you two dance the light fandango!:D You would have disappeared in his arms George!:eek::p Hell I hugged him once and felt like I was in an old MRI tube!:eek:

    My hotel room is booked. Since I've got someone coming along, we're splitting the cost of the room, which makes it much more reasonable for me.

    About what time Friday would we say things will be hopping? I'll arrive in Scranton (of Office fame) on Thursday night. Want to spend some time with my sister on Friday morning. So I won't be hitting the road from there till noonish? Not sure what the driving time Scranton to Totowa is...I assume a little over two, two and a half, hours or so...?

    I want to know how Joe already know's Patrick's butt is skinny? What's up with that!!?? :eek::)

    Getting psyched as well. Doug and I are leaving Thursday morning to head to Ricardo's in Ohio. He's promised us a feast for the evening a warm bed and some great listening time on his rig and a nice breakfast. Then the 3 of us are leaving Ohio Friday morn to head to Lou's.
