Put me down as a “maybe” while I run the numbers. Woohoo! Maybe I can talk **Manservant Hecubus** into giving up his jacuzzi suite for six hours or so! 😃 BTW, Happy Belated Birthday! ---

OK, for those of us following at home, we’re talking **Saturday, October 20** , right? I know some people are coming in for the whole weekend, but that’s the _main_ event, correct? Now, I seem to have misplaced when and where, precisely. Who’s in charge of this fiasco? Get me Continuity on the phone! Esprix ---

Six hours in a hot tub gazing into **Sue** ’s gorgeous eyes? The mere mention of the possiblility makes me call American Airlines, like _ **NOW!** _ ---

And another thing… When **MamaHen** and **Strainger** and me and whoever the hell else is in San Diego finally decide on a San DiegDopefest, you mo’fo’s from LA better bloody well make it down for it, or it’s ass-kickin’ time for Esprix, baby. I haven’t hauled my carcass two hours north _three times_ for nothing - I expect recompense, baby. It’s all about the tit-for-tat. Just so’s ya know. Word. Esprix ---

There _IS_ no sex in the jacuzzi suite. Violators shall have to accompany me to the hospital. Them to get my foot out of their ass, and me to get my shoe back. That is all. ---

Mine goes any which way she wants it to! Please move **UncleBill** from the “MAYBE” list to the “DEFINITE” list. Freaky Flier miles to LAX, reservations made at the Ltd already, vacation day confirmed. King sized bed, for those taking notes. “No hairy legs” rule is in effect (sorry **Esprix** ) but other than that, sex is highly encouraged, as long as I am there. ---

Who wants to meet me at the airport? **I** will be arriving in sunny California at 2:13, Friday the 19[sup]th[/sup] of October for the second of the _**October TriDopeFecta[sup]®[/sup]**_ (Chi-LA-Cols.) This is where it gets interesting: I’ll be heading to Reno after the fest and I need to catch a ride up to SF with someone in order to meet a buddy of mine. Anyone? ---

Glad you’ll be there, **think**. I am seriously considering renting a Harley Heritage Softail for use during those few sober moments that weekend. The PCH on two wheels is one of those things on my list of things to do before I die. I’m guessing a Friday afternoon shot up the coast, and mebbe Saturday after the cobwebs clear and I get those darned socks off of my teeth. Now, which hot Doper wimmins were talking about wanting to ride on the back of a bike??? ---

Okay, I guess I’m not unique in the effort, but…uh, _I’m hosting one of the Fests!_. So there. 😉 You know, I almost looked at flying out of Chicago, but the flights out of Louisville, _through_ Chicago, were cheaper. Go figure! So, wow…do you think you can handle three week[sub]end[/sub]s of me?
