Was this discussed in the other thread? Because $45US is a hell of a lot to pay for a $10 seat. Icon or not.

Maybe so, **Miss Creant** , but I’m gonna have the camera. And depending on how deep the alcohol-induced comas are, there might be some compromising pictures…[Mad scientist laugh]Hahahahahahah[/Mad scientist laugh]

A friend of mine is vising from Vegas this weekend. We are gonna be having dinner pretty close to Resis.

After three years in the Keys, jello pits and Marines are nothin’. So am I allowed to bring a non-doper?

I know of at least two Dopers who joined the boards after having been brought to a Dopefest, so by all means, bring 'em!

_puff puff pant_

Hey! I’m still here. I just got done serving on a jury. Just poking my head in to say that I’ll be there on Friday AND Saturday.

Although it looks like everyone’s all coupled up! I even lost Sua in the flirting battle for christ’s sake.

::kicking dirt::

Looks like I"ll just be drinking myself into oblivion…

**jarbabyj** , not to fret, my dear! You and mags are jointly responsible for taking care of Sua while I’m in the jello pit with **Bunnygirl** , **vix** and the Marines.

Know what I just realized? I really need to learn how to flirt.

See y’all late Friday evening, I suppose. Hopefully a couch or floor will be forthcoming.

In order to assuage **dropzone’s** rampant paranoia, and after discussions over some pints with my buddy from Dundee, and also after looking at the ensemble last night, I am going to get the [Royal Stuart tartan](http://www.emucities.com.au/member/workshop/pics/fabric3.jpg) instead.

[sub]thanks for the heads up, drop, I’d fell better in this one if I can’t get my own family tartan[/sub]

Can’t go wrong with Royal Stuart. Red’s my favorite color anyway.

(My extra bolding) Is that the royal “we” **vix** or are you talking about the Dopemen in general? 😉

I don’t know about the rest of the gals, but I’ve got stamina.

It looks like the weather is going to cooperate. [Here](http://www.weather.com/weather/local/60601) is the latest forecast (warning - annoying popups). Actually, it may be a little cool in the evenings, and since we’re going to be outside, I’m sure you guys know what that means.
