I could probably get to Jackson for about $200 on Southwest. If someone bakes me cookies, youll have a bigger chance with me.

I'd certainly like to go. Maybe I could follow Dirge, Fletcher Atticus and MeMe to Jackson in another car? This would also open up seats for other Springfield scummers. Possibly spork.

If I am in the area I will stop by for a couple of nights 8)

kristocker and I made that sort of drive for MeMeMeet, and it was

definitely

worth it. It was the sort of experience I keep thinking about and will occasionally start sentences with "When we went to MeMeMeet..."

Wouldn't be a party without spork.

I still think it's a decent idea for the Springfield contingent to all pitch in to rent a 12 to 15-seat passenger van.

I have no idea whether I'll even be in the states.

But if I am, you can be sure I'll find a way to get there.

I'm up for it if raj or inHim are up for it, because I still doubt I'll have a car next year.

I'd pitch in for that van. Yay!

The Travel Safety Authority doesn't remind you of 1984?

ISO · Post Post #35 (ISO) » Sun Sep 24, 2006 1:25 pm

Is that an actual authority now? I wasn't even aware, so I can't speak to as their 1984ittude. But most likely they do.

The TSA is scary. A man traveled in nine cities without anyone realizing he had like a pair of scissors in his bag. TSA personel have been caught sleeping.

But they did catch a guy who was travelling with a brick.

I was returning from Holland the day that the hegemony decided to scare up it's people again with explosive jam. They confiscated my shoepolish.

Oh, those guys. I like to avoid Public transit too. I usually get people to drive me. So if you want you are implying is I don't drive but I do ride the subway, such is not the case.

But in regards to planes, they usually don't need to know my height, age, full name, hair color, if I wear glasses, whether or not I am 21, if I am married, where I live, or what my birthday is. They just want to know if I got drugs in my shoes, which I do not. So I will fly, but I will not learn to drive.

We could make a pitcher of that, too. Along with some fresh-baked cookies.

Sounds cool, except i totally already bought my ticket for MoS-faire....Yeah I was under the impression MoS-faire was the upcoming one, june 21st-26 i think was said.

And has thesp talked to mith about said gathering?

yeah, what about MoS faire which has already been on the drawing boards for months and some people (read: me) have pretty much already committed to, I don't think it's really fair if we have 2 competing, if you will, mettups near the same time. you know?

I'm pretty sure people are allowed to gather without mith's permission...

please correct me if I'm wrong, oh mighty one

. I'll also point out...

...so he appears to be fine with it, regardless.

There were requests for a definitive date/place for the next meet-up in the MeMeMeet thread and I saw no "here's the date" from MoS (

I'm

the one who gave a tentative date for another midwest meet -- in the MeMeMeet Musings thread -- IIRC).

I'm glad Thesp and kristocker stepped up as I was never sure MoSFeSt was going forward. I was thinking a Dirge-Do might be in order after all. Basically, I don't believe that Thespival is meant as competition, and I rather

like

the idea of having a meet in a different part of the country this time.

ISO · Post Post #48 (ISO) » Wed Sep 27, 2006 6:18 pm

i think tommorrow we should all have private competing meets with ourselves.

nonny · Post Post #49 (ISO) » Wed Sep 27, 2006 6:48 pm

I wasn't saying that MeMe, that was just the reason that mos told me he hadn't made a thread of finalized mos-faire was because mith hadn't given the go ahead yet.

But i think regardless i shall go to illnois for mos-faire because mississippi is way to far away for me. That is just my opinion though.
