I’ll be there! I might even try to bring baked goods, or possibly homemade ice cream. But that would be a little trickier to transport and serve. We’ll see.

We’ve seen you more recently than Mr. Cheek. And I’ll be there tomorrow night.

I’m going to sleep most of the day, so I’m posting early as well. I’ll be there tonight.

</div>

I’ll be there. I don’t know how useful I’ll be, as my head is full of movies, but I’ll be there.

I just found out that one of the rounds will be a James Bond round. I don’t suppose the secret festival was a Cubby Broccoli retrospective this year, eh?

Very early bump. At this point, I’m planning to show at the OP tonight, but don’t assume the worst if you don’t see me. That’ll just mean I’m asleep.

</div>

I’ll be there, but I won’t sleep until I’m in the car on the way home.

Wait … maybe I should hold out a little longer than that.

I won’t be there, alas. My sister-in-law is getting married this weekend, and the pre-wedding festivities start tonight!

Oh, and we should start thinking of team names. I’m guessing at least three teams will do George Carlin tributes, so we should come up with a really clever one.

We could be “The Church of Joe Pesci.”

And I’m sleeping now.

Is 78 out of 81 points a new team record?

That wasn’t just victory – we drove the other teams before us and heard the lamentations of their women. And their men. And their pets.

Maybe…  
I just had a thought that, maybe…  
I might play that game,  
If practice becomes lame…to me…

(Um, so non musically I might make it depending on how much practice people are doing this close to nats. I’m either there by 7:50ish or I’m not.)

I’ll be there.

It’s weeks like this that make me wish the OP served ice cream. That would be perfect!

I can’t continue the musical interlude because I’ve never actually seen West Side Story. I know, I know! I’ll hand over my theatre major card now.
