Fine...I'll go...Stace said:but I would really like to come (as would someone else *cough* Kelzie knows who I mean), so that's my two cents.

Kelzie said:Don't worry, I'd protect you.
kal-el said:That's good to know, God? knows I'm not on alot of people's Christmas card list.

jallman said:But you are always on my holiday card list, kal. :mrgreen:
I am thinking sometime after october too. Have we thought about where?
Kelzie said:Not yet. Suppose we can have both polls running at the same time.

teacher said:Ah grasshopper, think you you are the first on that list? Don't fret, I'm sure Superboy has your back. Kelzie? Little help. Protect me, please! Eek.
teacher said:I think this requires much planning, much coordination. A plus is that there are likely many here with pull and connections that can make this as inexpensive and enjoyable for as many as possible. Deegan claims to be able to get a hall cheap like, there is also a travel agent who can drastically lower the costs of all by bulk purchasing in advance. This may well take some time. I say research all avenues.
teacher said:Of course Robin claims to be so rich he should be able to pay for us all. Hail Robin. You were right after all. America sucks. Now pony up the cash.

GySgt said:Biiiiiillooooooooooo....come out to plaaaaaayaaaaaaay.
Good thinking (Hence the big brain I guess).
Banned....Bwahahaha.
teacher said:Um...Stace?
Stace said:Um......teach?
teacher said:If there is anyone here that needs protection...
teacher said:But then brains are not what the Marines are looking for when they indoctrinate young men to storm the beach with 50 percent plus casualties. Oh-rah! (Lord, that just makes me want to find helpless little mammels and feed them to hungry Bulldogs.)
GySgt said:"Saving Private Ryan" showed what the U.S. Army went through in the great beach landing. What many people do not recognize is that U.S. Marines pulled "Saving Private Ryans" over and over again in the Pacific.
Iowa Jima? Guadacanal? Was Okinowa in there too? My Father's Father was Army in the Pacific Gunny. The stories that man told me on his front poorch after he learned I had joined the Army at 17 to this day haunt me. My great Uncle Jack died in the pacific Ocean. Troop ship torpedoed by the Japs. I got the skinney from the horses mouth. Some of us know. Some of us pass it on to our children.
OORAH!
Is that the correct spelling? Now I know. Wont happen again.
Anyway. Have this convention in one of two places. Far North or far South. I want to swim or have winter sports. I don't want to travel a thousand miles and all I get to do is wear a lite jacket and we get to say to each other, "my the weather is mild." Let's kill two birds with one stone. If any of you ******s can beat me down a snowy mountain or out pace me in a mile open ocean swim you drink on me for a day.

Guadalcanal - New Georgia - Bougainville - Tarawa - Iwo Jima - Okinawa (two marine and two army divisions).
On July 2, 1945, while the Sixth Marine Division rested, trained, and prepared for the expected invasion of mainland Japan, they said, "Naaah screw it".....A-bomb!
