Is it what I think it is? What we discussed?

Yes. But I am getting better materials, and having some of the parts machined.

Ok, if you're getting parts MACHINED, I gotta step mine up a notch...

I also made a Back to The Future reference today!!!

The goddamned Libians......... what is it with those guys and their plutonium?

...and their hippie VW buses...and shitty aim.

Also...Back to the Future taught us....it only takes 2 Libyan nationals to be considered "The Libyans".

It is looking less & less likely that I'll make it.

uuhhmmm....you have to make it dude.

Yeah. No excuses.

Well, in all fairness, I can think of some pretty valid excuses.

Quiet, you.

Is monies an excuses?

Fixed.

So, I think I might have a problem with battery life in the current design, so I'll probably have to work in a cell phone battery or something...


Also, Chris, you HAVE to make it, although I am glad I missed your 'unveiling' last time....

^Use a diesel engine.

What are the dates again? I'm trying to save up to go see my folks on Labor Day, but hey maybe I can throw some money at this too.

21-25 of October (or through the 26th if you're a cool kid and plan on hitting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter on Monday the 25th)

I am still looking at travel options for this, will not likely be 100% one way or the other for another month or two yet...

Hoping to make it next year.

Hrm. I will start checking the discount sites. To get to my folks it'd be about $235, which is practically prohibitive as it is, and to pay that again the next month would be kind of hard.

oooh damn you all... an excuse to wear costumes AND to see the Harry Potter stuff (in costume again)

Damn you lack of a job!

Things are slowly falling into fruitition - I'm super stoked. I just got my mask in the mail, haha. SUPER stoked.

I had boxers on underneath the diaper!!

So this was brought up over at Pop Goes the Fourth, and I was wondering about it...are there people who maybe don't want to fly out to Florida, but would be willing to drive out there instead? I know some are already planning on going together in a group, but are there any other who are kinda tossing the idea around? I want to go this fall, and I'm going to one way or another, but I do think it would ultimately be cheaper to carpool together...so, I dunno. We can discuss.

I was talking about that yesterday. So yes I would be interested in carpooling. Although I have no car, I can do gas money and I'm a pretty sweet wheelman.
