I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with 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!

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

Our wings are not tired

But I agree with your actual point, i.e. they're so close they may as well be taken as a single choice, and if it wins then people can investigate their relative merits. (That is your point, yes?)

Yes, that's my point.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The phalanx of courdory jackets with the FFA conventions draw similar attention from the locals.

Dood. I had never seen the FFAers convene before (nor their jackets, which threw me for a loop), and then there was suddenly (seemingly) hundreds of them milling about downtown Minneapolis one April morning. All cleaned and pressed and looking massively out of place, hanging about the one building known as a hangout for a large part of the homeless population (IDS Center). Now that was a surreal morning. And afternoon.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

When the Square Dance convention comes to Cincinnati, it's completely surreal. Gingham and ruffles EVERYWHERE.

My parents took me to a square dance convention in Canberra. It was part of our big trip to Australia and New Zealand. I'm still scarred. The blind dancers were cool, though.

How about the Flying Pig festivities? Or is that entirely local?

Huh. Since I've always lived here in the city of the winged piggies, I have to admit that any festivities around the marathon probably don't even register on my weird-o-meter. I'm used to the odd traditions of my city.

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

This is quite possibly the most surreal tale I've ever heard about my home town.

What about when I add the fact that we were housed in a monastery?

It was a surreal trip all together, even when filtered through eight-year-old eyes.

Anybody else remembering the old SNL sketch?
