    Oh, if my wife hasn't packed it yet I can bring mine (if you still need one)! =)

    EDIT: And I definitely want to try Rock Band 2 =) Which hotel are you going to be at?

    ... do they allow [crossout]furry annoying pee monsters[/crossout] cats by any chance?

    Yes I still need a 4th controller.

    Breakers Express is my hotel. Pets are not allowed.

    Okay, I'll make sure we don't pack it then if at all possible. Lemme check on that right now.

    Hmm... tonight I must investigate and find out where I can find a pet friendly hotel in the area.

    WOO
    Ten days until CEDAR POINT ACTION JACKSON SATURDAY!
    Confirmed count is now up to 18. Coming with me will be two of my cousins (one some of you met at PAX), my girlfriend and my cousins' friend Holly. I'm still waiting to hear on if any other people I know are going, but that should be all.

    Woot! Awesome! =)

    Yep, Calli and I will be there for sure! We just found a pet friendly hotel, and they agreed to let us leave the cat in the hotel room during the day as long as she was in her kennel. Score!

    Thank you again Moe! =)

    Oh, and Mentok, we are go on bringing a 360 controller... but when are you doing this gaming shindig? If it's the night before, we're not rolling into town until late, just so you know in case you're counting on the controller that night. =(

    woo! i'm excited as all get-out. cannot wait. my tailbone can, since i bruised it Monday, but it'll be fine by the time i sit down on my first coaster. :P

    VT, i imagine it'll be whenever we have spare time.. i mean, we're just booked for Saturday at the park, right? so if people are staying Sunday, that's wide open.

    Most of the gaming will occur on Saturday after we decide to leave the park. Geekgrrl and I will be returning
    to the park on Sunday and then after we are done Sunday, we can play some games with anyone that is
    still in Sandusky.

    Friday night, Geekgrrl and I will probably just chill and watch a movie. We will be travel weary.

    We need to sing the Bad Horse song going up the ramp on every coaster (or maybe while still waiting to launch).

    I bought 2 two day tickets (Pay once, visit twice!) for Geekgrrl and I. Soon I hope to find out whether or not
    my other 3 friends will be joining me next weekend.

    Also, here is what I've got for phone numbers so far:

    Moe hs my number. I don't have his.
    VT has my number and I have his.
    Geekgrrl has my number and I have hers.
    Reisaroni and Gravy Robber have my number and I have theirs.
    hottopicreject has my number and I have his.


    Everyone else, I need your 'digits' if you'd be so kind.

    In other news, I got some bad news and good news about my hotel room's TV.

    Bad News: I can't connect a game console to their TV.
    Good News: They said it is cool if I bring my own TV.

    So I will be bringing my old (tube) 20" SDTV with me so that we can still Rawk out.
    If someone has a better smallish TV that they can bring for us to use please let me know.

    It definitely does Moe, thank you so much! We ended up deciding that we would try to get a head start on it in the first leg (just to make sure that we meet up with Transparent and TNTrooper in time), but it should be fantastic!

    I'm looking forward to seeing you!

    As of right now, I'm burning backup DVDs of my work machine, just in case something happens in shipping. I should've thought of this a while ago, but I guess that's how it goes. =) Almost done though. =) Then bedtime.

    Moe called me super late last night. Normally I would have been awake but I needed to get up earlier than

    Geekgrrl has my number and I have hers.
    Reisaroni and Gravy Robber have my number and I have theirs.

    Everyone else, I need your 'digits' if you'd be so kind.

    High 66
    Low 52
    Day: Partly Cloudy, 68% Humidity, 0% Chance of Rain
    Night: Partly Cloudy, 72% Humidity, 10% Chance of Rain

    The night is colder but not rainy, and the day is a tad colder.

    Wait, I did? I don't remember this.

    edit: well according to my phone history I did. Doesn't mean I remember it though. Also, it was only 2:46, that's not super-late. Super-late is like 5am.

    You sounded very 'happy' to put it delicately. You said something about stepping on my....feet if I didn't save
    your number. I still have the message. I can play for it you sometime.

    Hey Moe! Check this site out man!

    It looks pretty cool and I am trying to use it for my trip to Sandusky. It is not working for me right now though
    because I am at work. I will post the figures it gives me when I get home tonight.

    EDIT:
    I forgot to do it when I got home. Maybe tonight.

    I am in the Little Big Planet beta. Should I bring my PS3? Are you guys interested in trying the game out and
    maybe creating a PAX level or something?

    I only have two controllers btw...

    Also, I was wondering, have you guys all bought your cedar point tickets yet, or should we look into maybe a group deal?

    This man is correct. If we could meet at the gates before 11AM I could attempt to use my early pass thingy to
    get us all in at 11AM instead of noon.


    Is 11AM our confirmed time to meet up in Sandusky?

    How about 10:50AM? If we say 10:50AM, someone will be 10 minutes late and that will make them right on time.

    Reis, add a close quote tag after the word 'noon' in your post. That will fix your borken quote statement.
