Per the vote, people are now discussing the cast of regulars for the upcoming season, in the Angel NAFDA thread. If you still had posts you wanted to read in Angel NAFDA, and are now afraid to enter, you can safely read through post 3033.
The first post that mentions the changes to the regular cast is post number 3034, by Kristen. She put warnings and left some space after them, to give everyone a heads up.
We're deathmatching Dru.

RIVER RAFTING ANNOUNCEMENT: I'm hosting a river rafting trip down the South Fork of the American River with a friend who is a guide with Friends of the River, a non-profit group. We are still deciding among Aug. 23 & 24, Sept. 6 & 7, and Sept. 13 & 14 as the dates, and want to find out when the most # of people can come. Aug. is nice and hot, a good time to be on a river. Sept. will be a tiny bit cooler, maybe/probably - depending on Indian Summer heat waves.
FOR rafting is technically free, though Friends of the River hope people will make a ~$35 donation (the cost of an annual membership). I'll be getting Fri. and Sat. night campsites at Camp Lotus, which is $8/person. It's easily possible to drive up early/raft all day/drive back to Bay Area in one day, but is also nice to get up there Fri. after work, sleep by the river, and then shower/hang out after rafting all day and come back leisurely on Sunday.
If you're interested, send me an email and let me know what date is best for you.
eta: commercial outfitters cost $160-$120 and include lunch. We will brown bag/potluck it.
Now polling, for a limited time, a title for our new Minearverse thread!
I figured 24 hours on the polling, ending tomorrow at noon, PST. (Board time)
Issue #1 of The High Hat, an online zine of culture featuring the writings of a number of PF/TT regulars, at least two of whom are or were Buffistas at some point, and of which I serve as co-editor, is online.
We're finishing off Dru.

In re Thanksgiving in Jamaica: I have been checking out packages and working out how to work the system to get the most vacation/services for the least amount of money. I'm only investigating Negril, since (a) Ochos and Mo Bay are big, Miami Beach-like tourist areas (relative to Negril), which I dislike, and (b) I know Negril pretty well. I've gotten prices for NYC and LAX as departure cities, with 11/22-11/30 as travel dates.
Prices are coming out around $100/day to $150/day, depending on where one stays. The West End, which IMHO is nicer anyway, is a little cheaper. This includes 9 nights, round trip air fare, and transfers from Mo Bay to Negril, and back.
My question is, who, if anyone, is interested? I'll pursue this more if there's continued interest. Flights back on 11/30 are booking up (afternoon flights are already gone) so we'll need to move on it fast if it's going to happen. Please discuss in F2F.
ANNOUNCING THE START OF VOTING FOR THE 2ND ANNUAL BUFFISTA MOVIE AWARDS!
Voting starts now, and will end on August 16th, midnight, board time, which is when I return from vacation.
