Goodness gracious, I never realized I was in the same league as Nicole Kidman! That sort of thing could really go to a girl’s head. But don’t worry, **Anniz** , I don’t go for men who are TAKEN. Especially ones who are taken by beautiful Swedish women. 😉 ---

the place is near a Metro stop. I live in Baltimore & I dont have a car; I _can_ take the MARC however and then the metro. So, where is this going to be? ---

ramesh, Even if it’s not near a metro stop, I’m sure someone could give you a ride. ---

Just visited the link from RTF’s sig and found that Jeff’s is in N. Va. You can count me out…N Virginia is a bit too far off to go to by hitching rides. ---

For Metro and Bus info, go to [http://www.wmata.com](http://www.wmata.com), where you can get a point-to-point route plotted for you. I know that Metrobus goes by Jeff’s place because I already looked. ---

Oops. I said it. I wonder . . . if I say it again will she un-appear? Will she disappear and a cloud of anti-smoke or an anti-cloud pop up where she was? Put me down for a definite. I’m not going to be going to a tournament again for a while. Damned academic competitions and their lack of facts . . . :mad: ---

If anyone cares, I’m willing to try to make it…but last time I tried to drive up for one of these things, my transmission died. Can anyone promise to make the proper offerings to the automotive gods, so this won’t happen again? I really can’t afford another car… ---
