How can you do this all at once, you wonder?
Easy!
Book a cheap, cheap, cheap flight to Los Angeles, California and join the Coldie does Cali Dopefest, October 20!
C’mon, prices will never be this low again! It’s the opportunity of a lifetime! DO IT!!! Make it the BIGGEST DOPEFEST IN HISTORY!!!

Wish I could. I’d love to see all my BAD’s again, but I’m unemployed. I found a fare as low as $130 from PVD to LAX… but being unemployed, that’s $130 more than I have.
[sub]Ok, I’m also terrified of flying and only do it when I have to, but I’d go if I could.[/sub]
But it’s a great idea anyway. Anyone that can, should! Come on, do it for me… 
Where/what is PVD, just as a matter of curiosity?
Providence, RI.
$130 bux to fly from one end of the country to the other? Are you kidding?
Then the Midwest, Northwest, West and Southwest dopers could probably get here for the price of dinner!
Well, that was the price had I bought tickets 4 weeks in advance.
And yep, UncleBeer is correct, PVD is Providence. Though the airport isn’t actually in Providence, it’s in Warwick. Go fig.
