What is with all this *IF* business, gentlemen?
There is no IF. There is no TRY. There is only DO!
C'mon. You guys gotta come!

Indeed.
If you don't come, you won't get to be confuzzled by my accent plus you'll miss a few other things I will bring to make it memorable.

Wade, I'd really like to meet you...
And I was definitely planning on coming this year. The problem, however, seems to lie with my gallbladder, and its apparent insistence that it no longer wishes to reside internally.
While I have made the trip with back biopsies before, I don't think traveling in a car for 12 hours after surgery is terribly advisable.
I should find out within a few days, but I'm not hopeful.
Regards,

Whimp!
No, really get that taken care of.
I'd hate to have to perform emergency "jack knife" surgery to remove that damn thing... especially in your A8.

I have to say that you, Ashton, are on my short list of People I Must Meet In Person Some Day.

Re: And you were planning to attend...? :-D
Well.. that can cover Ripley's Museum too ;^> Thanks, mutual - alas - -
twixt the Terrierists having Won.. as regards successfully rendering 'air transport' a continuous soul-deadening ordeal -- and the fact that US rail transport is quite pricier (though a vastly more serene experience) -- short of some cleverly rationalized emergency, I'm pretty well stuck near the Left coast for a while.
Still, given the Cosmic crap-shoot and current turbo-charged migration of most of the US cash --> zooming into fewer profligate pockets, there may come an offer I won't refuse, should I wish to trade 'location' for mobility.
That is: I'm waiting-out the details of post-Bush chaos - which NoOne could possibly guess (from the present ...
-\ufffd-
\\______/ _\\____/ __\\__/ ___\\/___ ////////////
(-\ufffd- = fly about to land)
"situation".)
Y'know?
ie. Maybe next year.
Hope you get aimed towards some of the local environs worth taking in. Not far from all that commercial dross, strip-malls and cold office towers - often seen enroute to/from airports -- are some gorgeous sites/sights which have resisted the National commitment to cheap-production-efficiency.
No doubt the troops will suggest several oases within a reasonable radius. Sorry I'll miss seeing your smuggled-in baby wallaby, too! :-/
Cheers, I.

I understand.
I am/was looking forward to meeting you, as well. Pity I couldn't/didn't arrange my journey to stop near you for a bit.
I'll pray for you. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Wade.
