My only visit to Minneapolis in the past, I toured downtown in a racecar, July 6, 1996. I didn't do too well, but at least I didn't finish last. Also went to your art museum, which had some decent stuff. Now this visit, I'm touring a really big mall with royalty. Wherever we go, it will not be lame, just because we're there.

Speaking of which, now I see Oggar as the Court Jester, and Roomie as the Court Stud. Is Badfellow the wizard?

Somehow my posts disappeared into Blackout Village?

I repeat: Thursday to Sunday would work for me, plus I have fun, middle aged drunk women friends there!

See you next weekend Don in case I evaporate again....

I see my definite maybe was eaten by the great blackout.
Well, let me reiterate...
I might be able to do this, depending on my vacation / employment status at the time.
If my current job is the proverbial thin ice, I seem to have broken out the pogo stick this week. This is probably not as bad a thing as it sounds.
Updates will follow.

Decisions, decisions....

Ha! I remember that weekend race. An acquaintance who drinks Grand Marnier like iced tea was in the vintage event in one of his Echidnas. Those are cool machines, but I think he's sold them.

Maybe you could leave the MOA at some point, though. There's a whole city or two to drink in!

A visit to the Red Dragon is highly recommended while in town. Although I'm sure MJM wouldn't mind a squad of 20 or so Drunkards launching a drinking offensive on the Green Mill. We'll call it the Red/Green Crawl, and it will literally be a crawl after we hit zombies and wonderous punches at the Dragon.

Still waiting to hear back from Roomie, Oggar, and Mallory as to when you might want to be sleeping in Minneapolis. I go on the road Wednesday and hope to have most of this nailed down by then. Also, boys, what size T-shirt do you wear (for Wookie suit choice)?

Nice weather...hope it cools off for my visit.

Ok, I have heard from the afore mentioned. And spoken to Her. She and I will be arriving Thursday Feb 28 (seperately, she's headed for a boozefest with some old broad brigade...maybe I'll check out the Green Mill...tell me where it is). Then the royalty and the Mankato contingent arrive Friday. We are at the airport Hilton.

There may still be cheap internet rooms available. Any other invaders interested (Mallory will not be attending)?

You mean I have lost my roommate??
Going to book my flight this weekend. the best fare I could find was 311 from Boston. I plan to come in Thurs afternoon, maybe even Weds if my drunk chicks tell me they can get time off.
I think we should start at Bubba Gump's.
