Reply #5 - Dec 11^th, 2009 at 12:04pm I am all for getting together but do I have to carry my computer to another place? It is heavy and I am lazy. But all I am busy for is New Years Eve night. Anything else is fine with me.

Reply #12 - Dec 17^th, 2009 at 2:50pm I can go buy a card table if necessary. I think I've got a large folding banquet table available. I'm sure your parents won't mind if you dump their decorations and steal the table. Besides, who the heck has Christmas decorations up in January?! -b0b (...srsly!)

Reply #22 - Jan 3^rd, 2010 at 11:44am Yeah, it was a ton of fun. Nothing beats fausting Briney in the face from point blank range. Stewie, just throw a date out there closer to the end of the month and I'll try to schedule around it. Life is good! -b0b (...Oh, and that MG42? It's mine.)

I noticed you still don't have a rating for Surf Nazis Must Die? For shame!

Oddly enough, I was just thinking earlier today that we really needed to have another LAN. The last one was a blast!

Mere and I will be flying to Japan this weekend and will be back on Sunday, April 11th. I'll probably have to work the following weekend to catch up on everything, but I'm wide open after that.
