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.

I didn't vote for NO and I have to admit, the NO heat was a factor in mine; my neuro says it's one of the worst climates in America if you have MS.

Beyond that, other reasons, definitely, but for me, the weather was, in fact, a factor.

I'll hate the weather at that time of year, but plan to be too inebriated to mind all that much. Plus, it's an excuse to wear skimpier clothing.

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

It's an excellent strategy to cope with losing a vote, and you might get to use it again later in the year.

For all you NO haters:


Long before the Superdome,
Where the Saints of football play,
There's a city where the damned call home,
Hear their hellish rondelet:

New Orleans!
Home of pirates, drunks, and whores...
New Orleans!
Tacky, overpriced souvenir stores...

If you want to go to hell, you should take a trip
To the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Mississip':

New Orleans!
Stinking, rotten, vomiting, vile...
New Orleans!
Putrid, brackish, maggotty, foul...

New Orleans!
Crummy, lousy, rancid and rank...
New Orleans!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The weather was actually pretty pleasant in the corresponding weekend of this past May. Not a guarantee, but it might not be hellish.

I can vouch for this. It was not an issue. Besides, you just pop into a cool old bar and start drinking from noon until 3 until it cools off.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Well, I'm a humidity hater, and I voted for KC, but only b/c KC was the cheapest (as am I). I wasn't voting *against* any of the other choices; I was voting *for* KC.

t edit Besides, I've been to NOLA in mid-August, so I can't imagine that May could be worse than that. And I coped on that trip by being inebriated the entire time, thus not feeling the heat. Or anything else.

It's people like you what cause unrest.

There's no place on earth better for coping via liquor than New Orleans. It makes Vegas look like Prohibition is still in effect.

Darwin. NO, see, offers other ways to cope.
