JimF-LowBari Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Still trying to get used to the idea of little ol' DCA running from Friday night to Sunday night. (Thus speaketh the old guy who did Prelims and Finals the same day.) When I wasn't marching used to go to Allentown for Prelims only and go home. Did the same 2002 Prelims at Scranton when I wanted to see if I still enjoyed corps after a 10 year absence (yeah I did). Now we're leaving Thursday for the drive, dinner with the crew and (hopefully) full slate of I&E/Mini, Prelims, Alumnis, Finals with plenty of fellowship with food, drink and more food. Someone tell Dinosaurs to reserve a Big ### platter and a regular Genny for me. So what's everyone elses plans? Anyone not making all the events (which is cool as you're supporting DC by making what you do). Yeah, slow Friday at work and getting pumped. Edit: Translation for Western PA folks - What are yinz doing Edited August 22, 2008 by JimF-3rdBari Quote

LegalEagle50 Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 all plans have suddenly taken a nose dive. i may be there. i'd like to be there by sometime Saturday. since i have much of the same schedule as J up there. at this point it's best i take a wait and see attitude. wait and see if i'm still employed. wait and see if the next paycheck actually clears. wait and see if i'm behind bars for murdering my boss. signed ~ one very ticked camper Quote
