BTW, OhDope Attendees and maybes, we’re hoping to do a concurrent party thread with the fine [sub]but pitiful[/sub] [Dope-A-Ween](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=81654) attendees.

Think of the fun to be had comparing parties: telling the other Dopers who’s drunk, who’s naked and whose on top! [sub]oops, out loud voice[/sub]

Of course, all this hilarity is dependent on there being a dial-up connection available at the clubhouse where the festivities will be held.

So, cross your fingers, say your prayers, rescue a kitten, anything to get some good karma, so we can make this thing a go.

Yeah, I’ll **bet** something will rub off…but I ain’t saying what it is!

You just know that _all_ the cool kids will be in the Blue Ridge at the [Dope-A-Ween](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=81654) on the 27th!

And thus things get ugly…

OK, it’s going to be a hell of a bash (especially with the “D.C., live via webcam” thing going on), and I have such an excellent costume going. Go ahead and bump my attendance probability up to 98%.

If I can bribe some Doper chick to flash you, will that up your attendance to 100%?

Dude, you drive a hard bargain. I’ll see what I can do.

Okay, how’s about one true Doper chick and a guy in drag? Special for you today, best deal. You buy now.

One female is fine, **if…**

Flash, and a feel. Not a quick “cop,” but a nice, long, slow caress.

Hotel Poop  
You folks know I love all a ya’s, but I’m afraid this old man is simply incapable of dealing with a slumber party. Since that’s the case, I’ve made hotel reservations at the Courtyard by Marriott that Bunny provided earlier. Below is the URL to go directly to their webpage through which you may make reservations. Kingsize was $69.00 per night; doubles are more. If anyone else wants to stay there, we can probably split a cab ride to the hooha. I’ll have my car, too, of course, for any other running around, over and through, that may be required. You know, liquor store, dinner, liquor store, porn shop, liquor store, gun dealer, liquor store, hospital, liquor store.

How’d y’all like a big batch of UncleBeer’s prize-winning margaritas?

Margaritas are fine. I’m not so sure about the guns, and I **know** they won’t allow cell phones.

I bet they let us use the cell phones if we tell them we’ll use the guns.

Margaritas=good

Isn’t there a law that says Margaritas must be had on the patio?  
I don’t wanna drink on a patio in Ohio in October dressed in - um.  
Never mind.

Yes, but after winging soutward from the frozen north, won’t Ohio seem positively balmy? 🙂

I agree with **Juniper** here. I mean, even 4 hours north in MI, we have to wear our coats for Halloween, most the time.

Ohio will seem practically tropic. Plus, I’m not planning on being able to feel any cold anyway. Cherry cordial will do that to ya, ya know! 😃
