There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

(Yes, I'm including the May option in there because we still had great attendance at May F2Fs and I'd like the chance to actually attend one again. Some day.)

May dates definately had their perks. I'd like to see them back in the mix as well. I know it makes it tough/impossible for some teachers, but it opens it up to some other people. We should all be able to get a turn eventually.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A May option would be of the good.

The status is NOT quo.

Could we look at early May, for May dates? Would maybe kill two birds with one stone since it would be cooler for those who like that and won't be right on top of finals and graduation for those with kids or who work in education.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Finals at my university this year are May 3-11, and I think that's pretty typical.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Mine are scarily early this year - my semester is done April 17th.

I'm getting the pig!

I thought graduations were early June. We've successfully done mid-May a few times. Does mid-May work? As Hil stated, earlier might be worse timing.

Early June is tough for Uni graduations and for teachers. I think mid-May and mid-June have been our most successful so two weekends in each for voting would probably be ideal for our purposes.

Depends. Colleges are usually mid May. High schools can range from late May to late June, with schools in northeastern states usually the latest. And there's always going to be a few schools that just have weird schedules.

Our wings are not tired.

Our HS seniors finish May 7th with graduation on May 15th. There is a wide variety around the country.

I don't suppose April would be an option instead of May...? Or is May in particular desirable for some? (Not at all trying to be snarky, honestly asking).
