Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Also, can someone recommend a place to stay in Chicago for April 12-15?

Libkitty and Tom, I'm very sorry I no longer live in the Bay Area!

As for the DCistas, should any of you like to join Vortex and I for dinner tonight at City Lights, drop me a line at my profile addy!

I'll be visiting DC eventually, Sparky.

Excellent, Tom! That, of course, doesn't make me stop wishing I was going to be in the Bay Area for your visit or libkitty's, but it helps.

Tom, I'd suggest my place, but since I'm now living in the far NW suburbs, it's not really a central location to doing, well, anything (it's close to work for me, and that's about it for pluses). I've heard the Best Western on N. Michigan Ave (I think that's where it's at) is a decent place for a reasonable-for-downtown price.

YAY! You know that you have a place to stay with me! I'll even have a guest nook.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I'll be in SF for my 40th birthday in April, too!

Yeah, I saw some of your planning posts after the fact, Tom, and realized we weren't going to be able to connect, but I just couldn't get out of here earlier. Bummer.

Our birthdays are actually closer (3/30), but I'm not able to leave town on mine, so I'm celebrating a bit late. Spring break and holy week conspired against me this year.

eta: I'll miss you too, Sparky. I suppose you haven't been in DC long enough to take a vacation back to CA yet, huh.

Yippee! All your libkitty are belong to me. Well, for a few days anyway.

Argh! If I'd seen this a few hours earlier, I totally would have been there.
