Whether or not I'm able to go this year is still very much up in the air, but I would strongly suggest getting an open bar if possible - carrying cash to Prom is not exactly practical given our traditional costuming choices.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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'll check, Jessica, I do think that's the best idea and I don't think I saw anywhere in their catering info that we can't have one. Some places won't let you and I know at least one of the hotels I got proposals from didn't.

If only 2 or 3 people are interested, I'd hate to see them spending all that money for the keg when they probably won't drink it all, or even half.
have you met us?

usually what we do is have a "tab" that we've prepaid for. That way, no one has to deal with cash.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
As someone who can't be there, I still want to kick in some $$$, in the same way that people before me kicked in $$$ for F2Fs that *they* couldn't attend.
I'll PayPal to whomever; just please make a general announcement (maybe in Press?) about who I should send $$$ to.

Seriously. Look...I'll be there. Beer consumption is not an issue.

Our wings are not tired.
I ain't drinking no stinky beer, although DH probably will. I'm a wino.

I'm on PayPal, but I think you need a special set up to receive money. I can check into that tonight and see what I need to do to make it happen.

I started to bemoan another F2F where I'd be forced to teatotal, but then remembered I don't like beer anyway.

You're teetotaling, Matt? But... I always think of you as a witty and somewhat louche southern gentleman! With leather pants.
I may be mixing you up with shrift a little bit.

Just for a little over a year now. My doctor basically told me I had a choice of any two of the following: (1) healthy cholesterol level, (2) alcohol, and (3) functioning liver.
