I AGREE WITH GARFIELD…
Not that I’m a college student or anything, but you’re pretty much guaranteed a designated driver if I show up. Or something.
Seatbelts everyone! : pokes chique:
P.S. Gazelle… riding lno ROCKS! I mean, riding with lno, because I, of course, wouldn’t know… Nevermind. Anyway, you’ll stop at Popeye’s, you’ll sing, you’ll laugh, you scream CONVOY!!! at odd moments… You’ll have fun. Go.
I’ve already had my plans to attend my first ChiDope thwarted by a now almost 2 year old girlquake, but I shall simply ducktape her to my chest and try like hell to appear at this one. I have to lord my godlike 7-7 fantasy football record over ShibbOleth, unless him and Gundy are a too busy “huddling” (is that what the kids call it these days?) in their corner, in which case, I’ll bring my digital video camera. Dopers gone wild indeed.
My interest grows.
I’ll be there, of course.
I don’t think HOTM is a good spot at all. We should have someplace where we can mingle and talk, not a place where we’re shoe-horned with music and singing and talk so loud that you can’t hear yourself think. If you want to do Howl, do it as a thursday night early-bird event.
Put me in as a “maybe”. Any dopers from the Bloomington/Normal area interested in carpooling?
You may withdraw my concerns regarding the date. It is extremely unlikely that I will attend this (or any other) ChiDope.
I shall do my best to attend.
I live in Louisville, KY. Close enough to see what we can do?
Ask Persephone. I’m harmless. Pretty much.
Oh, and Persephone, haven’t heard from ya in a w hile…how are ya?
Scratch that. I assumed that was Bloomington/Normal INDIANA
lno’s driving down? If I accept this time, I won’t back out. Promise. lno, you got room?
Oh man, rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrubesbaby, too?
I am SO in ChicaGO in MayO.
I browsed last year’s after action report and accompanying photos and they got me all psyched up!
Yup, rubes, and the car’s filling up fast - chique, GfH, possibly Elenfair and a service dog …
There’s still room for everyone, but it’ll be cozy. And this way we can get some good harmony going on the ooh-oohs.
[sub]Great, now I’ve got Baby Love in my head again…[/sub]
Wow, there IS a Normal, Indiana! I learn something new every day.
I meant Illinois. Sorry for the confusion.
Haven’t been in Chicago in too long, and I really miss the Ben and Jerry’s, and the Ghirardelli… thumbs through the calendar…
OK, I’m in. Chicago’s been missing me (at least that’s what I’m telling myself) I was in NYC for a mere 43 minutes before being declared the coolest white boy in new york city, by some stranger walking by. I’m not sure what I did to deserve such kudos, but let’s hope Chi-town treats me equally as well
Good point. You still have that paper in your ear?
Once I got some tweezers, it came out like a champ. Next time I’ll steal ear plugs from work.
Count me in.
I am not sitting on the hump.
I wonder if I could talk my mother into lending me her minivan for the trip. Hmmm…
