    I plan to spend the whole weekend fasting and in prayer.

    Not really...they do have some on the menu but they are basically a seafood place. I don't eat meat so Squids is always a restaurant that I look forward to. If you go there, try not pig out on the complimentary hush puppies. They have a decent beer selection too..the Sweetwater 420 will be my choice.

    There are actually 3 pretty good Mexican places fairly close to the hotel. Two in the direction towards Storybook and one the other direction. I have eaten at all of them over the years and dug all 3.

    All the folks from PE, that will be attending Progday this year, should get a tee shirt printed with their handle proudly displayed. I know that many of us do not need introducing, however, some people like the invite, so...If you see a recognizable handle, you can go and introduce yourself.

    Any reason you've never introduced yourself to me? Just sayin'.

    That was a joke. However, I did see you at NearFest (more than once,) and one time, (might have been at RosFest when I did the single day for IQ,) I passed you and said something like "Hey Geez" (Kay was with you, I know that) and you acknowledged the salute, but it didn't go further. I'd love to chat with you. I have a huge amount of respect for you. As far as this year's Progday, I've been trying to get my vehicle shit together, and I think that's going to happen, so I may not be staying at the Event Hotel, but I may actually make my first Progday. I almost feel like I need to.

    Hope you do make it. Look forward to chatting. BTW, the respect is reciprocal.

    Hi All - I've landed after spending a number of years flying under the radar of PE and surveying the subjects and commentary from all you prog aficionados, geeks, geezers and occasional ladies (of which I confess to attributes of three of the four). I too will be attending this year's PD and hope to make acquaintances of many of you in this chat. Mr. P. Geezer and I will be traveling together.

    See you then!
