And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

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 have to mail it to her yet. I've been a terrible slacker. It's going out on Monday, though.

For those who ride the morning train from Boston to NYC or DC, is it generally crowded enough that buying a ticket in advance would be necessary? I was hoping to give myself some leeway in case a 9:20am departure doesn't work out so well, but I don't want to strand myself in Boston if buying just prior to departure isn't feasible.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
If it's not the express train, with reserved seating, I think it doesn't matter what which particular train you take, just the route. I'd check with them to be sure, but unless it's the Acela you should be okay.

Thanks! I decided to go on one of the half-as-expensive cattlecars, so I should be good to go with buying a ticket the morning of.

Matt, the only times I've ever bought Amtrak tickets in advance were over Thanksgiving, when things do sell out. On a non-holiday weekend, you should have no problem buying your ticket at the station.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
This weekend, I took the train DC-NY on Friday morning, and NY-DC Sunday afternoon. I bought tickets in advance. The Sunday one had a few extra seats. The Friday one was totally full, to the point where people who got on at the first stop after DC had to stand or sit in the cafe car until some other people got out in Baltimore and Wilmington. I don't know how many people bought tickets in advance and how many bought them at the station, though.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ok, found 2 tickets for less than $500.00. Haven't booked yet, waiting to see if room on Visa clears up.

Mostly lurking...
Ok...so...looking at flights...just booked the hotel room for me and Emily. How big of a deal would it be to fly into BWI? The prices are like $100 less a ticket. Would someone be able to get us from there and get us back on Sunday?
