Mercy is the mark of a great man. Guess I'm just a good man. Well, I'm all right.

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!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

The Arabia Steamboat Museum in KC is pretty amazing.

I contacted the Cleveland Visitor's and Convention Bureau to see what help they could give us on average prices, things to do, stuff like that, and they said they'd have some pretty solid hotel pricing for me by next Friday.

That will be good information to have. Don't go too overboard on getting all kinds of pricing on cities. We'll get our four top choices nailed down and then send out all the information to those cities with our RFP and get bids back. Ballpark prices are good at this point.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Jumping in towards the end, so the discussion right now is based around the following cities?

Austin
New Orleans
Nashville
Lawrence
KC
Minneapolis
Toronto
Cleveland

Is this correct?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

ChiKat,

I think Lawrence was going on a line with KC. But apart from that, that's the list of proposed locations.

Memphis, and Atlanta have also come up, as has Denver.

Also, yes, we are treating Lawrence/KC as one entry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think all of the proposals should have theme songs.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Atlanta AND Toronto count as middle of the country? We're not going to have any East Coast cities left for 2007!
