It all began with WXPN... We were going to meet there, but ref found a more quiet location around the corner. Beers were had, as were cheese fries. Discussion was pleasant and became more relaxed after greenitalics realized we weren't going to kidnap and murder him. He was also kind enough to take us on a super amazing walking tour of the U of P. Well done sir. Thank you both for making the effort on this PERfECT evening.
Dude, do you realize you can fly from Philly to Toronto tomorrow for $117 one-way. I'll buy your ticket. I'm not kidding. I'll even put you up Thursday night. Meet up is scheduled for 7:00. Fly out at 2:05 -- it gets you into DOWNTOWN Toronto. I can pick you up. Dude. . . OK, I'll go on line and buy your ticket now.
Into what I call Billy Elliot Airport because I can never remember what it really is?it gets you into DOWNTOWN Toronto
72 victories apparently. Fun fact: My uncle in Florida lives in a fly-in neighborhood (private airport; he has a hangar and a taxiway in his backyard) with an address on Billy Bishop Drive. And I will split the airfare with you!
Just when I think that I couldn't like _ref_ any more than I already do, she goes and recites elvish poetry whilst wearing some sort of make-shift Hubski head-dress. #badass #feelgoodhubski! Have fun!! Wish I was there! Steve -get audio.
I know like the first two lines of : "A! Elbereth gilthoniel Silveren penna miriel..." And then I gave them like the first two stanzas of the Lay of Luthien. On a side note, work has officially blocked hubski????? So I'm going to be super quiet for the next few days I guess Suckssss _ Also, my first AOL screen name ever was "varnelockse," which means "brown hair." And I used to be able to write in Dwarvish. This is all LOTR mythology btw,
We haven't gone over the fact that basically all thru middle and high school I spent my one hour of alotted internet time on www.lotrplaza.com ? This is like, a heart to heart meeting of true nerds. I memorized the Lay of Luthien for class in 7th or 8th grade and gave an enthusiastic presentation on iambic hexameter and how Tolkien structured the stanzas so every 4th and 8th line of every stanza ended in an "-ing" rhyme - shimmering, fleeting, roaming, sorrowing, and so on. Yeah, I was pretty cool.
Hey if you let me know some reasonable amount of days in advance and it's on a weekend and circumstances align correctly I will fly out to it. I have been meaning to revisit DC for many years. Flights from my native airport to the capital are inexplicably cheap sometimes. wasoxygen edit: at-lil, the same, I have noticed, applies to T.
THIS WOULD BE AMAZING thenewgreen Meriadoc mk ecib insomniasexx
arguewithatree and I are always up for a meetup. Both of the big DC ones and the few small ones of ref and Wasox were fantastic.
preferably after may of 2016 so i can be a fully functioning and happy participant in the festivities... next semester is my thesis + comprehensive exam semester ;_;
Preferably after winter because insom doesn't do cold.
