    Yay! I'm glad you will be able to join us, F8L!!

    Octavia, never fear, this year I will be taking my camera with me to the after hours party...

    I still deeply regret that no one got any photos of the lap-dance. :(

    I usually wear really muted colors so you can hardly tell it is spandex.

    There will be bicycles! Pacific E-Bike will be there showing off their wares a unique hybrid electric bike called the Jai Bike, and a company that sells wheel motors that turn your bike into an electric bike.

    Plus since, the facility is right on the beautiful East Bay Bike Path, we have complimentary Attended Valet Service for bicycles.

    Why is it that threads so often die when I show up and post images of me in spandex? This keeps up and I'm gonna get a complex.

    "Fluff"?

    Um, it's not a porn movie, right? It's just showing the car...

    LOL, so I might just come to this love fest. Depends on my friends' schedules and if I can still get free tickets.

    It sucks for me to meet you all though cause I'm such an internet tough guy.

    We can open up the registration for a few more people, especially if they are PCers.
    Involves a little more work on our end, but we are happy to do it.
    I'll PM you.

    edited: Linda is traveling to SF tomorrow so she will be unreachable for a little bit.

    Thanks Eric. I was going to try and talk to Linda later in the week to see if I could get in somehow. It would be terrible to have to watch my roomates, for the weekend, go into the VIP sections while I sit outside like a lost puppy dog. lol

    I'm so sorry I didn't tell you earlier. At least this time you found out before the event, instead of after. :D
    Very gracious of you. Thank you.
    I would have smuggled out some coffee and cookies, at least. Or maybe I could lend you my VIP nametag and we go in one at a time. ;)

    I hope I don't miss the table dancing this year!

    If I ran around with YOUR name tag there would be all sorts of shenanigans going on and all of the after-event posts would be naming hyo silver as a troublemaker, disturber of the peace and probably some other labels I cannot post on this forum... :D

    On a different note, I wonder if I should have registered to show my car. Not that it is in perfect condition but I could have loaded it up with all of my work gear (rolls of barbed-wire, steel t-posts, fence post driver and puller, bird boxes, Polaski axe etc. Then slap a sign on the back that reads "Prius - Ranch Edition". lol

    Ok, it's confirmed. I'm going, I'm showing, and I'll be crowing about the merits of the Prius as a work vehicle! Look for my lil red Prius. I'll likely be the only one in a cowboy hat and Wranglers. :D

    Love it. :)

    And you think me wearing a F8L nametag wouldn't cause you any grief? :p

    Your car can provide the sound system for the building, too.

    Good point! Everyone already knows you as a troublemaker anyway. :p

    True! Maybe I should start taking song requests now. lol

    We're not even there yet, and we're having a great time already. I should do road trips more often. Rae Vynn and I had a wonderful visit with Octavia yesterday, and we're just settling in at F8L's. Looking forward to the big event tomorrow! :)

    I'm having trouble deciding what to wear? Should it be "Darell Casual" or "Darell needs a job Dockerish?"
