billytea, are you into fish too? Amphibians? Albino alligators?
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
And more shopping, of the kind one appreciates after getting completely into the "oh my dear whatever on a pogo stick, please be kidding me" headspace:
The Mall of America.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've checked through the Louisiana zoo and aquarium websites already. The white alligators (IIRC, it's not an albino, it's leucistic - blue eyes instead of pink - and once appeared on the Jeff Corwin Experience) is a drawcard. But I think I'm going to plump for Minneapolis. To me, the selection is more exotic.

Dana, do you want me to do NO, or you?

You've been working on it, haven't you? I'm happy to toss in more pros and cons, but organization is not my strong suit at the moment.
Personally, I don't understand why "But it's NEW ORLEANS" isn't convincing people. Hmph.
(That's a joke. Please don't defend your city preference to me.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
That bookstore that Neil Gaiman deals with. DreamHaven?
Oh, yes. And ocassionally sightings of the Man himself. As well as ocassional Sam Shepard, Jessica Lange, Walter Mondale....
billytea, there's also The Como Zoo, which has everything that the MN Zoo doesn't. Also, a Japanese Tea Garden, which I adore.
Przewalski's horse
Oh, yeah! I love it. And otters. I love the otters.

What if my defence is "It's NEW ORLEANS"?

I've already written you off as a wrong-headed crackpot. And I think I decided that most of New England is imaginary anyway, so la la la I can't hear you.

Our wings are not tired.
Besides, who wants an F2F without Laura-n-Brendon?

Thanks juliana and other fact gathering folk. For me #1 advantage of any city is large group of Buffistas. Then again, I am notoriously easy.

I'm sayin'. I guess we've got cons of weather and what else? Maybe too much to do?
