Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Is that a nominations, Raquel?

Because, like America, we like to say that the F2F could be anywhere, (even though, well, unless you have the support of a major party, it's rather unlikely) so you can be on the ballot.

(Fortunately for us, there are more than 2 major parties in most of our F2F elections. Although a town without an airport is still rather like the creepy guy in flannel with no government experience and outlandish views on fire hydrants as his primary platform)

Susan, the airport area hotels handle a lot of convention traffic, too, so they're worth a check.

What is even happening?

Hmmm, so which of the aforementioned folks was it that Scott was raising an eyebrow over hearing so much about, again?

Meeep! And the person I arguably talked to the most, that night, the velvet voice, himself, Matt the Bruins Fan. I've also met Jen.

move out and draw fire

I'd love to nominate Greece, because I think it could be really cool. There's a cruise line that does 3 islands (Crete, Rhodes, and someplace else I forget) starting Friday and returning Sunday. You sail while you sleep (or party on board, as the case may be) so daytime is all about exploring the islands.

But sadly, I just don't see any way to make the trip affordable for anybody, even me. So I'll not nominate it, and wait to vote on the other noms.

Edit: although it would be close for Nilly and maybe Fay, depending on her future whereabouts.

If I win the lottery, F2F 2006 in Greece is on me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Put that in your breast and pump it, Empress.

No. Please no. Not Bellevue. gnnnng.

Signed, commutes to the damn Eastside every day and does not like it one bit, and also considers Bellevue to be bland and soulless, and not in the fun, leather-pants-wearing way.

Well, I'd say Bellevue is slightly more soul-having than Seatac, but I'm happy to limit it to the city limits.

SeaTac is soulless because all that's there are strip malls and hotels. Bellevue is Stepford. Complete with perky, probably-robotic soccer moms wandering about.

(Yes, I have not just issues, but complete subscriptions and archived collections about Bellevue. Sorry.)

Totally understood. I only suggested it because I already have a connection with the hotel, which could possibly be exploited for good treatment.
