Since it's looking like three dates are running pretty close and could be affected by Java's vote, why don't we do the run off among the top three rather than the top two?
I'd rather do that than delay.
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

F2F 2008 will be in Madison, WI. SailAweigh will be the point person.
Final vote for now will determine the best date from the top three (you can vote "no preference" if all three would work). There is also a question that will allow you to tell us if one of the three is especially bad for you.
VOTE NOW HERE. Survey will stay open until Tuesday night, 9PM EST.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Bay Area peeps might want to know that the Pirate Festival in Vallejo will be the weekend of June 14 this year. Pirates or Buffistas is not a choice I want to have to make.

June 14th is my ideal date! Bummer. June 7th will be tricky since I'm still finishing up school at that point. The 21st is doable, though.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Bay Area peeps might want to know that the Pirate Festival in Vallejo will be the weekend of June 14 this year. Pirates or Buffistas is not a choice I want to have to make.
Pfft. Most of the performers at the Pirate Festival will be at various Renaissance fairs and faires, the Dickens Fair, the 3rd-Sunday-of-the-month sea shanty night at SF's Edinburgh Castle, and various other costumed events all over Northern California for the entire rest of the year. I love pirates dearly, but they're still trendy enough that it's not that difficult to get a regular pirate fix 'round these parts even if you miss the festival. A hotel full of Buffistas from around the country or possibly the world, much more rare and wondrous.
