F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Miracleman is a comic book character.

As is Joe.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Miracleman is his board name. Named for one of his favorite silverplated age comic book dudes or some such thing.

Hee! I knew it was his boardname, but I didn't know the origin. Thanks, guys!

(And happy birthday to MM!!!)

not your mom's socks.

Philly - yes the Heart is still here. The Mutter museum is insane and victiorian and yeccch and I'll go anytime. The art museum has an annex devoted to fashion and I'll see what the big (main collection) exhibition is for various weeks. Google Reading Terminal Market. There's also a couple of historical things here. Just a few. If you are coming to Philly this year and are interested in Impressionism or African art, you may want to to see if you can visit the Barnes collection out in Marion before they move it. There's a gorgeous park along the river. And the oldest zooin the country, where some of EB Whites Trumpetr of The Swan was set.

There is South Street and the reading terminal market.

That said, I can't coordinate - I can kibbutz or someting but my head will explode and I will let everyone down if I add one more thing to my list right now. Taking on too much is my Thing so me saying this is a big deal.

And if the f2f is in Philly or Baltimore June 19th I can't go. :(. Don't let that stop you if that's the best option.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Isn't there an Edgar Allen Poe House in Philly, too?

ETA: That's a disingenuous question as I know darn well there is, having been there, once upon a time. [link] Should the F2F end up here, I highly recommend a group tour.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How many houses did he have?! There's one in Richmond, VA, I know.

I think there's one in Baltimore, and there may be one in NYC, too.
