Jim Morrison Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 I'm in and buying the first round for all TIJ'ers.
Scottpat Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 I am in for the long haul. I will be in Austin the entire week!
Paul MacLean Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 I'll get out of my own bed and fight the rush hour traffic each morning just to get the chance to see youse guys.[:-dev3]
Les Posted November 17, 2004 Report Posted November 17, 2004 Can I come over for lunch? Patterson does not eat much and Kurt will be looking for open water.
chrisprickett Posted November 17, 2004 Report Posted November 17, 2004 I'm coming and bringing my wife. You guys will get to meet the woman sick enough to marry me!
Paul MacLean Posted November 17, 2004 Report Posted November 17, 2004 Originally posted by Les Can I come over for lunch? Patterson does not eat much and Kurt will be looking for open water. Do you like peanut butter sandwiches? The water for Kurt is less than a half mile from the hotel, but not good for wind surfing. Canoes or rowing is an option.

Patterson doesn't eat much?! Jeez Les, I hope that isn't typical of the accuracy level in your HI reports. [][:-dev3] Hey Paul, forget peanutbutter, can I sleep in your garage? Poor folks do what they have to do. [:-mouse] How much is the sign-up this year anyway? I looked around a little on the link, but never saw a number. Are they scared / embarrassed to tell us?

Jim Morrison Posted November 17, 2004 Report Posted November 17, 2004 I don't know how things are done way down in Texas, but I do recall a few months back, one Texan HI who I won't name (though it rhymes with "Ronald Dawson") was bragging about how delicious his rib recipe is. Seems to me Inspection World is the perfect place for a fella to back a claim like that up. What's that Texas saying? All hat, no cattle?
Chad Fabry Posted November 17, 2004 Author Report Posted November 17, 2004 Makes note: Chad if you go to inspection world bring metamucil.
kurt Posted November 17, 2004 Report Posted November 17, 2004 It's "Big Hat, No Cattle". I've heard that there are some absolutely kick ass rib shacks in Austin; I expect to be sharing at least a couple slabs w/ the brotherhood.
mcramer Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Originally posted by Chad Fabry Who's going? I'll be there. I'm presenting a couple sessions. I'm in for ribs, booze, B.S. and cigars.
Brian G Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Okay, I found the numbers. $500 for me, $600 for the non-affiliated. Reading the list of offerings and who the presenters are, that ain't bad at all. On the other hand, the Hilton wants $145 a night for a single!?! For that money it should come with a hot, disease-free hooker every night! Anybody else found a more reasonable rate nearby? Brian G.

Scottpat Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Brian I snore just a little, but if you want to snag the hide-a-way sofa(I think it has one) let me know. Also check with Charlie Sessums, his wife can find all types of deals. Scott

Brian G Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Originally posted by Paul MacLean Brian, Are you sure you want to sleep in my garage? Hey-hey, fully furnished already, without all of that annoying floor space. Brian G.

Are you kidding? If it's got a sofa at all I'm good. [:-sleep] Check on it if you don't mind, I'll call you late tomorrow. Brian G. Plotting My Escape

Les Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Scott snores like he eats. I found a good deal on a squad tent from military surplus that would fit in the front yard and has a vent at the top to let the smoke out. An 18ga, 50' extention lamp cord would power the amenities.
bradfeldt Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 You guys keep trying to find a place to sleep. I'll be up all night with MC doing the booze, bs, and cigars.

Bruce Thomas Posted November 19, 2004 Report Posted November 19, 2004 I’ll be there in the Home Safe vendor booth, stop by and say “Heyâ€
Brian G Posted November 19, 2004 Report Posted November 19, 2004 Originally posted by Bruce Thomas Paul some guys have all the luck, no flight, no hotelâ⬦ Big deal. I have no flight and no room, and I live in Mississippi. (Just ignore that 10 - 12 hour drive and sleep wherever) Brian G. Homeless for Three Days...Hey Buddy, Got a Dime?
