Dick’s is fun. I visited their San Antonio establishment once, and got shot with their paper napkin gun. [http://www.dickslastresort.com/index.htm](http://www.dickslastresort.com/index.htm) ---

At least they were polite at the last couple of 'fests we had there. ooo I love their indian pudding for dessert, and the corned beef and cabbage dinner. Is there an elevator?

I can’t handle stairs any longer =( Since we’re planning a Dopefest somewhere in that area soon, and since one of us is in a wheelchair, this question has come up recently. I decided to call just now and ask. No. But downstairs at the Gaslight Pub is accessible. Same menu, I was told. ---

Be a person who sets up ‘GOING OUT OF BUSINESS! EVERYTHING MUST GO!’ sales for [these guys](http://www.hilcoappraisal.com/). I was a temp there for a couple of weeks, and it was really like living in _Repo Man_. ---

I do remember that there is a public parking garage in reasonable proximity to it, we parked there a couple years ago. There is also a fairly expensive luxury hotel right there [a couple years ago it was in the $250 a night range :eek:] Hubby and I havent visited Faneuil Hall recently, it is probably getting to be time to go again, probably January or so. ---

Have you investigated career opportunities as a Hermit? If your personality is as you describe it, I see no reason to recommend a career that will put you in contact with the rest of us. Society as a whole has no need for any more rude people; we have more than enough as it is. ---

The best I can tell, you have a solid career in front of you working at any municipality in Georgia. I call on permits and code in states all over this country and they are consistently the rudest.
