HA HA!! :lol:

That would be very interesting to "whack my boss", unfortunately, I just got hired last week and start next week, so this may be a bigger problem than expected. If I worked for my boss for a long time or several weeks/ months pass probation, I would more than likely have vacation benefits on this. Besides, I don't make excuses, I make results!! 8-)

Wait a minute. :?

This AWA dinner is in Atlanta right? If so, I'm outta of luck because I live farrrrrr away from Georgia. I usually plan things out ahead of time once I find out about them, but I didn't find this one out till now! I'm new to this site, so next time I'll be sure to check the forums periodically so I don't miss any events. Heck, It'll be my first time on a plane if it's far away. Wheeeeeee!!! :lol:

Still hope Dude! :)

All excuses. Back in my day we didn't even need those fancy airplanes. We just WALKED! And if we couldn't walk damnit we dug our way there with our bare hands. SIX MILES deep in snow, up hill BOTH ways! And we didn't have any of your high-falootin' "country music" or "jazz" as the kiddies called it. We just snapped off our fingers and toes one by one to create a melody so beautiful it come right up and slap your momma in the face with a wet handkerchief.

My girlfriend is not going to be able to make it.

She had to choose between not going to AWA and writing a 15 page paper. She decided to not go : /

...the intent is to try and get projection ceiling mounted.


Just an update on some of the improvements of VAT for this year.

We've succeeded in securing a ceiling mounted projection AND screen. A couple more rows of seating will be possible for those who like it up close and personal with the sound system too.

Also, there will be 2 amv dances to keep folks busy at night friday and saturday, and with the ceiling mount, the usable floor area will be much bigger (for those who even care about such things). Along with a tower of fans to help with the circulation problems of that room.

I'm eager to see these new things being used.

: P No. Long distance = fuck that. I figured that out completely 2 and a half years ago (beyond that, and not that I expect anyone other than me to keep up with my relationships, the thing with that Canadian girl ended in like 2005). She lives in Richmond Hill, about 20 minutes from my college.

Here's the basic thing. That Friday she's going on a field trip with her Mamology (or maybe it's Zoology) class to some thing that's not open to the public. All I really know is that it has Cheetahs. If she skips out on the field trip, her professor is requiring a 10-15 page paper.

Can I bring my 100 watt tube amp with me this year? I might need some help lugging it around, it's pretty fucking heavy <.<

Absolutely you can, if you don't mind it becoming a suppository.

Or at least where the sun don’t shine, either way no one will watch it for you. Plus it gets in the way when cramming 100+ editors into a small restaurant. This includes obnoxious personal effects like guitars, amps, vehicles and B.O.

They have just under 2 weeks, computers, and access to Weird Science on DVD.
Clones make good grunt workers and even greater pets.

My stance remains
