Virn - as far as the driving, my main concern is having someone in the car - I get sleepy driving by myself. I need people to talk to. If we get a carload of GABbers, I'm sure to stay awake - who the hell could SLEEP through all that? I'm willing to pitch in more for the gas if people are willing to go with me. Save you the gas money so you can crash with us.

Baring any catastrophes, I will be driving. I am debating on whether or not it would be wiser to rent something fuel-efficient (and save on the gas $) or drive my van (and have tons-o-room).

I checked, and the route that "Mapcrap" gives from Cincy is straight up 71, through Columbus and NE ohio - both Declan and I are enroute. I'm game - I'll pitch in gas money as well as split a room... If any Indy GABbers want to meet at my place (straight shot on I-70) and join up (assuming it's ok w/ Mr. Sir) they are welcome to do so, even the night before...

I won't drink, but won't mind being surrounded by people getting drunk around me. Actually, I always carry a pen and a pad, to be able to take notes when I find myself in such a situation.



Lodging: if I come, I'll probably stay at a hotel. I can take care of myself for reservations, but I will appreciate a short list of hotels where other GABbers will be staying, just so that I don't find myself on the other side of town as everybody else.

It may not be related at all and I certainly don't intend to join a support group.

Ok, I started that post earlier today.



A few things:



1) I've talked with Spicey previously and if he's attending, the Mrs. and I would be sharing a room with him (supposedly) and we would be willing to take a fourth, and they can fight with Spicey over who get's the bed/floor/chair/better spooning position.



2) I find it hilarious that Al put in his little spreadsheet thingy that TTJ doesn't drink.



3) We'd be leaving the Sharkpup with family this time.



4) Again, we're still willing to start a road trip here and pick up as many as we can along the way in a rented van for a share of the expenses.





But that all depends on the next couple weeks for us personally, the true FINAL anouncement of the timetable, and whether or not Spicey can get someone to spoon with him, without having to pay for it.

If by takes pity on you, you mean masturbate outside your car while watching you sleep, I think you'll be in luck.

Lizzie, that might not be necessary. Once the date is announced we'll pick a hotel and those that want to stay there will be told what kind of prices we're looking at. If your limit is zero we'll see if any groups will let you sleep on their floor. At least you'd get to stretch out more than in your car and you might even get to shower! We'd all win then!

The Mailman has been graciously calling around to local colleges to find out if dorms are available for boarders. It ain't looking good so far, but I can't remember Shakespeare for Shakespeare, so I'll try to track him down and ask him to post his findings.

Due to circumstances I can not at this time discuss he may not be comfortable with me flying to meet weirdos from the internet.



Most places, you wouldn't have to qualify that statement.

Best. Badly-formatted HTML page. Evar.



Beers is just about right on the money, though I do enjoy kamikazes, and have been known to indulge in more painful shots, such as three wisemen, and jagermeister.



My human name is in my profile.

Not attending. I bought a house on Monday, so now I am very broke. I would still eat Ramen for a month so I could afford to go, but the 16th won't work. I host Fresh Air Kids and coordinate the entire event for my city, and the children will be here through the 19th.



If the party date changes at all, I could come otherwise. But I would need to know soon, so I could stock up on teh instant noodle.
