If we’re going to get a decent Dopefest going, I’d like to get a quick roll call to see who might be showing up. St. Pete, here. Anyone else?

Anybody think that a Central Florida Dopefest would be a fantastic idea? Because I think that it would be a fabulous way to celebrate my return to the Sunshine/Lightning State.

I’m glad to hear the idea for a TB area festivus is still alive and well. I know we discussed it several weeks ago, but I’ve been away and wasn’t sure what the final decision was.

By the by, I’m in St. Pete.
