Rude, Toad, Lazs, Mark Luper, SOB, Pongo, Ripsnort, Udie, Fatty, Sling, Mason, Raubvogel, AKNimitz, AKCurly, Drex, Eagl, Curval, Urchin, banana, any of the regulars go to this one?
I know Verm and Fdski are there.

Nope.

Had kinda planned on going but RL jumped up and bit me big time.

Not this year. Maybe next... but whoever knows things that far in advance?

I have the time but not the money this year. Should be OK next year though.

Curval went.

I didn't see any FDBs, AKs or BKs on the list. Didn't see any of the AssAss-ins I'm familiar with on the list either.

Yeah it was nice meeting Lizard and Moose (again) last year. Too bad ole HB didn't have enough gas in his speedboat to make it to Dallas.

Rumor has it that HT is the only HTC staff at the con too? Can anyone confirm this? I don't trust my source of info on that on since he has a crush on funkypants.

Well that narrows it down a bit. There's only about 8 guys in your squad who have expressed latent homosexual feelings to this heterosexual studly manly man.

Toad · « **Reply #7 on:** July 18, 2003, 05:07:52 PM »

Yeah, I can confirm that.

Ummm... not "latent homosexual feelings"... more "Thanks for services rendered". And only 8 have done it here... we have entire threads dedicated to your abilities in the FDB forumn. Why didn't you do that trick with the cherry stem for me too?

Maybe I oughta put my money where my mouth is and do some kind of west coast con. How hard could it be.

Quite a few AHers in the PNW/NoCal/SoCal.
Something based around the Chino airshow weekend would be spooge-rific.

Set it up... I'll take TOB down as my date, so you'll have to find someone else. Maybe we could even throw froggy in the back of the mini and bring him too.

Hard part would be renting the conference room and the network setup. You don't know what it will cost until you know how many people are signed up, but people won't sign up until they know what it will cost. It's a sexy idea though. There are quite a few decent facilities within a pretty easy freeway hop from Chino.

Didn't make the con this year Funked, I started a new job last December and though I have some vacation already I didn't feel comfortable leaving on a vacation this soon. Will try to make it next year. If you decide to host one in California I will make it a point to go. Never been in that state... (keep expecting it to fall off into the ocean

).

Or duh we could just find a hotel with Wi-Fi and make buying a Wi-Fi card a condition for attendance.
