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

I hear it's a completely fun tour; I'm not a beer drinker, so I can't say for myself.

dibs on Erin's beer!

That vinegarated crap y'all call BBQ? PLEASE. *sniff*

Allow me to show you some REAL BBQ. Thick, spicy, smoked to perfection. Fancy, street, restaurant, roadside... we got the hookup, babe.

Vortex, you can all almost all the beer...if I do a summer tour with y'all, I need a pint of cold wheat with a lemon, just to get the friendly vibe. The brewery's down on the Westside, where I used to teach. I can hook y'all up with some great Mexican at a wee little convenience store, catty corner is a fab vegetatian bistro, or tapas and sangria at the reverse happy hour at La Bodega where I had my after-wedding dinner.

Or I can make reservations at the Mongolian grill I worked for in grad school, and we can stuff ourselves on veggie or seafood Mongolian BBQ cooked the way you like it. Or two restaurants over, Jazz on Thursdays has 50 cent oysters and the best Cajun north of LA.

KC is an eatin' town, y'all.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Texas is laughing at your BBQ.

Because books.

I can never remember what the difference is. One's pork and one's beef, right? And one's sweeter and one's tangier?

Best BBQ I ever had was in a little shack-like place in Florida, of all places.

Are you trying to start a fight?

One's pork and one's beef, right? And one's sweeter and one's tangier?

And one should always be served with olives.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Uhm, we REALLY need to cut back on the natter in this thread if we're going to get anything planned. (I'm as guilty as anyone in this regard, BTW).

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Ok, then, to cut down on the natter, let's poll the group:

What should be on the "info we need" form for the city pimpers?

Mmm.. judging from past experience....

Transportation: airports into city, trains into city, transpo options within the city.

Hotels and price ranges for a block of rooms reservations.

Prom Night options: Room, bar, dinner, house party.

Sightseeing options to pimp.

Info about area/areas likely to be used by F2Fgoers.

Pimps should check for major conventions going on during the time(s) they are proposing for their city.

Localistas willing to transpo/act as comm coordinators/sightseeing guides/crash pads for broke-ass 'ffistas.

That's off the top of my head.
