It should work for me. But who can really predict when things interfere?

can i come?

no, fuck you

i wasn't asking you

Only if you post more.

You're in Detroit or roundabouts. You.. come to me.. go to Cid.. jump up to Canada for BiglesJohnny and then down to.. um, Virginia.

Yeah. Donnie and Amelia. Am I missing any of you Virginians?

Where the fuck have you been? your long absences have begun to piss me off royally.

I live 20 minutes from Lancaster, so if we did it there I could definitely join in. Speaking economically, it would be awesome to do it there ;)

ok, so july 13-15?

do we just want to go with this date?

the sooner we peg down a date, the sooner we can make actual plans.

14-16 might be better

i'm not sure about those odd numbers...

Definitely go with 13-15. I can't do weekdays. Coincidentally, that's a week before Otakon... not that it really matters to me, I'm still going. Just sayin.

Yeah, Virginia Beach sounds great.. ya'll get some oceanfront rooms, be loving it. Would be about the only viable option for me to meet up with ya'll, sure, I may work Sun-Weds, but Anya works Mon-Sat long hours.. so yeah.

well the problem with VA Beach is that is so damn far from PA. (5+ hours). For people like Jesse already coming so far from the north, that's just unrealistic. Ocean City, MD is 2.5 hours for us, and it's also 2.5 hrs from you in VA Beach. That's a short day trip and realistic for people who would be traveling a long way. Think you could swing that Donnie? Please?

Maybe.

if you guys get serious about this, i might think about going too..

but i don't have a car and i don't think i want to take a greyhound.

how far are you from michigan (hex) or maine (jesse)?

Already have a passport don't ya johnny?

Hmm. I smell compromises in the air. Knock on wood, I think the plans are crumbly like various brands of blue cheese!

Well, I think July 13-15 is doable for us, would just have to leave the sunday, early afternoon to drive back home.. get crackin, I wanna know which oceanfront hotel we're all staying in so I can book a room!

I will, unfortunately, not be compromising. I feel left out.

liss, we know you are the farthest out. optimus and i will get you here.

i can do philly way easily, lancaster slightly less easily, ocean city MD by a lonngggggshot.

VA would be a nogo but don't worry about me anyway

like i said, sam, i can pick you up as long as you are cool to be away for a weekend with some internet weirdos.

Nah, unless something major crashes in my financial situation, I will be studying in Cambridge. So unfortunately, this summer is out for me.

I mightve been gone a good portion of the time.. but I've still known most of these guys as friends and acquaintances or just plain funny reads for the better part of a decade.

All the talk is off New England area and Virginia. :shrug: Canadians and California folk are pretty much left out by default. :\

:shrug: Guess it's just you and me, Lissy poo.

GT should setup some sort of ad click program, and all the proceeds from that can go towards air fare for the folks on the west coast. In addition to Creeper and Optimus' kind donations.

LOL, good one!

we'll fly you in from there then. no problem.

holy shit i found my passport!

caveat: it expired 3 years ago.

isnt it easier to renew than to go through the whole process for the first time though?

im so close, im in it!

for the sake of directions or flight plans you can say i live in detroit. (im about 20 min south)

Hey, I've been through 20 minutes south of detroit.

why didnt you stop by to say hi to me and raditz?

I think that at that point I had been driving for a good eighteen hours or so. I was not thinking clearly. Damn it.

i'm up for whatever, wherever, whenever, i just want to have sex with zack. liss i love you! bring your sock drawer p

yeah that would be the problem (for the folks, not myself.) ah we'll worry about it when this thing is a reality

Yeah.. I'm down at this point. Just want to know that the dates are definent so Anya and I can both get the days off work. That and one of Anya's friends from back in Russia who made the same trip on the program 2 years ago.. she stayed in Rhode Island and got married, so we're hoping to get her and her hubby to stay in whatever hotel we stay in for the weekend.

what the fudge? this is not couples weekend... this is TTT balls out insanity time!

No kidding.

I'll kick the shit out of my girlfriend if she dares to ask to come along.

Edit: I don't really care. I'm just hoping this whole thing works out! I really hope everybody can make it.

Are there any definite details yet?
