Saturday, October 6th.

By the way, they're already advertising that they're doing the haunted antique cars and dark Phoenix rides for charity again this year, October 13th, 20th, and 27th from 6-10 PM. I was hoping they would add more rides, especially since last year they had people park in the campground right behind Twister, but so far nothing else has been said. I also don't know if they've considered that it won't be as dark as last year with the end of DST being stupidly moved.

October 6th, I guess that settles it. I'd love to meet up with you again Jay but I'm out. I'll be away at a softball tourney.

sh!T.

i may have a massive family obligation that day...

herc, with me tied down, timberman tied down, adriahna tied down, and larry making double plays and snatching 100mph line drives out of the air like a frog snaps flies - looks like PPP is going to be you, the girl, the dog, and cyclonic drinking yeunglings by the campfire and sleeping like spoons in the back of his PT cruiser.

Once when applying for a job, I had to write an essay in answer to the topic: "Describe a difficult decision you had to make and the process you went through in making that decision."

The more I thought about the question, the more I realized that the best possible dilemma I could have been expected to resolve was whether to go to Space Camp (because that made me seem intelligent and studious but still daring) or to pitch for my Little League all-star team (because that made me seem athletic, wholesome, and a natural leader). I also decided that the best answer to this dilemma was to stay and play ball, because "it wasn't just about me, it was about the team" and because "although I never did get to Space Camp, l could still reach for the stars."

I guess what I'm trying to say is, larrygator, I understand your dilemma, and I want you go out there and win that damn softball tournament for all of us!

Sweet! Someone else that will be there.

Right now I'm at a little dilemma. As the new manager of the Arcadia women's soccer team, there is a game on the 6th. I'm pretty sure I am going to pick PPP over it though.

I'm doing a ten-mile road race in DC that day. Hey, maybe if I get the day off I will have time to go up there.

However, I don't really like the idea of ERT with long lines, even though I'm sure the event is great.

Yeah, imagine how insanely crowded PPP would be if the Flying Turns had opened this year.

Don't bet your life on it not opening. The cover page of the PPP brochure this year says "Phoenix Phall Phunfest with a Twist and anything else we can come up with".

^i had to hit KG yesterday. no time in october for yours truly.

i was nice...cool, crowded, all the rides were hitting great.

it really bummed me seeing the FT looking so sweet and nearly done. i didn't see any evidence of trains and there's still a few things that look incomplete. i will be amazed if it's up for PPP, but good on them and y'all if it's up.

Mmmmm... Yuengling :-)

I expect to be up this year. Couldn't last year due to a last minute obligation, so I can't wait to head up this year.
