TAR update and planning
TAR is fast approaching, and if you don’t know what TAR is then you should click on the link in the nav bar above this. Â We’re booking rooms and taking names, and all looks like its coming together very nicely.
I’m planning on driving down Saturday from the great state of Wisconsin and through the mediocre-at-best state of Illinois. Â Sorry, but if the Cubs call your state home, then you can only be mediocre-at-best.
As of now, my plan is to leave early Saturday morning and get to St. Louis around noon. Â I don’t know if anyone else from the area is planning on coming at this time, but if it’s feasible I have room in the vehicle for more. Â Splitting gas and being able to share the driving so we don’t end up broke and on trucker “medication” would be a good thing.
We have a number of folks, male and female of all ages, signed up already.  If you would want to come but have questions, please let me know!  I’ll try to answer anything I can, and we do have people coming from all around the Midwest, so odds are that there is someone near you who is coming.
We got a solid list of things that we’ll plan on doing, and we’ll probably hammer out final details when we all get there so we can gauge what people want to go do. Â We have another week or so of being able to book a room with our group rate; after that you can still come and you’ll likely be able to get a room in the same hotel, but I have no promises on price.
This is going to be full of Epic Win, and don’t you want to say you were there for the first one? Â Meet new people and do something crazy for a weekend just to say you did it without the permanence of a tattoo.
Bring it on, St. Louis. Bring. It. On.

The hell of it is, I don’t think they can get a room when we lose this block of rooms.
They’ll have to be lame and get a different hotel!

Yep…
Hotel registration lady said everything else was booked.
Don’t piss around, people.
Jump on board NOW!

yep it appears that way now too, if you can’t get a room at Drury with us, you’ll have to fend for yourself on the streets of STL. Or the hotel nearby.

Okay! I’ll take a hit for the team. Daffy can double up with me. I know! I’m all heart and stuff. But it is for the team.

What a gem you are Coffeypot. I have a feeling that if we did bunk, I should sleep with one eye open….
