Kiba, I'm picturing you in an adorable outfit and cooing! And it isn't a lie, silly.

And not to mention those landscape pictures. Where do you live, again?

Rebecca, thanks... blush ...and I live in southeastern, coastal Connecticut. I love it here. It's soooo purty.

Matt, all I get from your link is the Corbis search page, even when I copy and paste it into the address bar.

Weird. But if you're on the search page, type DWF15-16856 into the search field and it'll pull up the right image.

That worked, Matt. Very pretty. When you said David, I thought Hec, and wondered why you were going to wear an outfit he had already worn, but now it makes more sense.

If Drew doesn't already have the Pump Panel reconstruction of New Order's "Confusion," I can send it to him. I think that song is a must-have at a dance party for vampire show fans.

I've got "Confusion", but not the Pump Panel reconstruction version of it.

Insent, Drew. If that turns out not to be readable via the AOL attachment process, I think I can burn it to an IBM compatible CD at work.

So I'm thinking about reworking my F2F travel and flying instead of training it. Southwest has a really good deal, but they only fly to BWI. I have a ride from the airport, but would it be possible for someone to get me to that airport on Monday?

ETA: Never mind...see next post...

Okay, that's sorted.

I did end up changing my flights, but now I'll be flying into National. Vortex, I will email you the changes, since it would be great if someone could meet me. I assume that there are also shuttles between National and the hotel, though?

ETA: Vortex: insent.

Woot! If Vortex is picking you up, I'll likely be in the car too, since she's my hostess for the weekend.

Question for those familiar with trains on the eastern corridor: I'm taking the train from DC to NY sometime on Sunday, and I'm hoping to travel up together with Jess Moon. Are the trains likely to be crowded on a Sunday afternoon? Should I reserve now?

From what I've seen, a Sunday afternoon train will probably be full, but it's been rare that I've seen them be overcrowded. (My sister has complained about not having a seat and having to stand the entire time, but I've never had that happen.) Reserving now would be helpful, but I wouldn't call it neccesary. (I'm going home next weekend, and just starting to think about reserving now. I've bought Friday tickets on Thursday night before.) Best bet, if you're not on a train with reserved seats, is just to get there early enough that you can be near the front of the line to get on the train.

Hil, bless you, that's precisely what I wanted to know. Since I'm staying with Jess in NY, and since we're not bound to get there at any specific time, I think I'll wait until she's back from Korea and follow her lead.

Of course, if I do have to stand the entire time, I'm hosed. The MS won't allow for that.
