    Since when do company picnic softball games require coaches?


    Send up the sober people to bat first. Stink the drunks in the outfield.

    There. Job done.

    But...it's a company picnic, so it is implied that they are playing against coworkers.

    When everyone is special, nobody is.

    Fuck, I think my wife already made plans for us to go to the beach on the 21st.

    I will double check to make sure, hopefully I am remembering incorrectly.

    This is really a screening process to see if you are cool enough to hang out with while still giving him room to run if someone is a raving psyco.

    they just opened a new visitor center and museum,

    here is how the gettysburg site says to get there:
    Gettysburg National Military Park is located in Adams County, Pennsylvania. The visitor center is located between the Baltimore Pike (Route 97) and Taneytown Road (State Rt. 134). From North or South, follow US 15 to Gettysburg and watch for signs to direct you to the National Park Service Visitor Center, which are near the exit at Rt. 97. Go north on Route 97 and look for the visitor center entrance, which will be on your left at the stoplight. From East or West, drive into Gettysburg on US Rt. 30, turn South on Baltimore Street (Rt. 97), and follow signs to the entrance of the visitor center, which will be on your right at the stoplight.

    here is a link to a map that shows the park, the visitor's center is center-bottom-cright
    Gettysburg Map

    here is the contact address the park service has
    Gettysburg National Military Park
    1195 Baltimore Pike, Suite 100
    Gettysburg, PA 17325-2804

    in case you need a more precise address, this might help
    Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

    Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

    But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

    Suite 100? That's a somewhat underwhelming Gettysburg address.

    I'd rather it be called something like FourScorePAX or HighWaterMarkPAX or PickettPAX or Little Round PAX or something.

    Secondly, tours are for pansies and wimps. Secretly send everyone GPS coordinates and we'll meet at night with fixed bayonets.

    In summary, the date sucks :p

    soooo guys

    i was thinking we could meet up at the visitor center/museum about 9 or 9:30ish. Dick around the museum until we have had our fill. and then take the car tour around the entire park. we can carpool it up and stop at each place and walk around till we are fat and happy with knowledge.

    If you watch Gods and Generals to get information about Gettysburg, you will be a complete histo-retard, as Gods and Generals was about the Fredericksburg campaign. The move you want is appropriately titled "Gettysburg"

    Wow, I am stupid. I was way overestimating how long it takes to get there.

    Although, I will say that Google Maps "1 hour 43 minutes" guess seems low.
