Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Joe Louis Arena!

Oh. You aren't all hockey fans, huh?

I am! And if I do make it to Madison, I will be pilgrimaging to Green Bay. IJS.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Maybe we should post a Press announcement giving anyone with other cities to pimp a day or two to voice their opinions before making the de facto decision that we're going with that city?

Yeah, I really meant "talk about it for a couple of days and if there's no objection go with Madison". I was still pre-coffee, sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

FYI, Wiscon is held in Madison over Memorial Day weekend.

I know there was mention of Evanston again as a possibility. While I'd really like to avoid the 2002 host hotel (it's gone way downhill), the area itself is neat and has a lot to offer. Were there any Chicago-istas interested in looking into other prospective places there?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm happy to look into some stuff, but to be honest I kind of like the Madison idea, so it'll be informational and not so much pimping.

Wiscon is held in Madison over Memorial Day weekend

Interesting sidenote: this was one of the few weekends where I found no blackout dates at the hotels I was looking at. UW commencement is the weekend of May 16-18, so I'd take that off the schedule right from the getgo.

Thrive to spite them

HOCKEY!! YAy, although this is a sad year for my team that sucks.

to be on topic... I don't think we should just decide without voting and I don't think there's a problem of suggesting some place we've been before.

Welcome to my world, where that is true EVERY year.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Greenfield Village/Henry Ford Museum, Detroit Institute of Art, Detroit Zoo, off the top of my head. Fox Theatre and the other one (I forget it's name), Tigers games, what else?

Very true. Lemme see if I can't work something up. At the very least, I can try the Marriott Ren Cen. Where's one of those bid thingies we've used in the past?

Hey Maria - get us the GM discount!! Ha ha.
