Hey, midwesternererers

If you're not busy hiding from tornadoes or eating gooey butter cake, when would be a good time for a STLPAX, and who would be interested?

I've had a fair amount of experience organizing event-type things, so I could get this thing going, if there's enough interest.

edit:

people that give a shit, maybe
Alphamonkey (hot damn)
Artreus
Bedlam
Cloudman
Cosmic Sombrero
fabricate
fallout
Firetruck
grumbles
OmegaTofuNinja
potatoe
ThatDudeOverThere
Tofu
Tsplitter

Yeah.

maybe geebs like, next year?

edit edit:
places we could go
The City Museum
Busch Stadium
Botanical Gardens
Central West End
The Loop
The Arch
The Zoo
St Louis Science Center
my house (don't come rape me plz)

    all I'd really need is for it to be a weekend, and enough notice to request some days off at work

    neato.

    i mean, there's some obvious meeting spots, like the loop, central west end, or the city museum
    i can plan stl outing stuff all day, but the going back and hanging out thing is less definitive

    i have the space, but my tv setup is kinda sucky

    If I get a car before this happens I'd be down. Otherwise I probably wouldnt be able to make it.

    Ps: the city museum is the bees knees. I havent been there since elementary school, though.

    Also the zoo

    fabricate you can probably get a ride from one of us, if you can't get a car

    also, is there decent parking at the museum?

    I've lived here my whole life, but I've only been down into the city to go to concerts or sporting events and whatnot

    Isn't this kind of unnecessary? I mean, there are like four of us. Six if you count grumbles or alphamonkey.

    edit: Also, redfenix, are you aware that we are all about ten years younger than you?

    In the future I would be down but I'm poor and jobless at the moment, also my car isn't really up to the three hour drive.

    But I love the idea. If I win the lotto I'll let you guys know.

    Weird Al was here in Springfield tonight at the county fair.

    I did not go because I do not care for Weird Al.

    I dunno, I guess if Weird Al came to my apartment and sang me a song for free maybe I'd tolerate it but there's no way in hell I'm paying 8 dollars to see him play music that just makes me want to go listen to other music.

    East saint louis tore itself apart before that.


    But the Busche sale was all over the news for like a month and it was the most annoying thing to hear over and over again.

    People still won't shut the hell up about it down here. My stepdad won't buy any more Bud products. I couldn't care less as long as somebody is still making Sam Adams.
