So if, say, in Summer of 2011, there's an RI conference,

[Alaya]

Can we move it to the sunny southwest by any chance?

I have acreage. I see RIstock. I have a vision.

[SanDiegoBuffGuy]

Near what city are you, Alaya?

I would love it if John Douglass could host a panel on the Kennedy assassination and why it still matters.

[Seamus OBlimey]

I'd have to stop drinking for at least two days a week and make too many other sacrifices just to pay the fare, not to mention the paperwork, bodyscans etc. Then, if I made it through a British airport intact, would I want to cross an ocean to go through another? I'd love to but I don't think it's gonna happen.

So, sorry I won't be there unless someone can get that webcam thing going or I'm promised a free tattoo.

Any chance of a european tour?

[chiggerbit]

or I'm promised a free tattoo.

et's a fantastic tattoo artist, emphasis on artist. Maybe we could beg.

[operator kos]

Sounds like a blast, although I'm barely paying my bills at the moment, so we'd have to see...

[elfismiles]

Oh!

And JackRiddler for 911-parapolitics panel discussion moderator.

And ProfPan for 911-parapsychology panel discussion moderator.

[elfismiles]

And if you have a Movie watching room like Comicons, Anime and Gaming conventions do, I suggest Hugh Manatee Wins for organizer and resident lecturer. Suggested movie titles / topics:

- The Parapolitical Distraction of The Incredible Mister Limpet
- The NeoCon Nuances of Nacho Libre
- Of Fascist Wookies and ChewingTobacco SnakeOil
- Burn the Hills Chihuahua After Feeding

Last time I tried to enter Canada, they tore my car apart, took my wife and I in separate rooms for interrogation. I didn't think I'd get into Canada or see the US again for that matter. Finally a Canadian relative intervened and we were let in. Oh Canada.

Sweejak, the last time I left Canada by mistake, they did pretty much the same thing. And I allegedly have citizenship. The instant $180 fine was the final kick in the pants. Along with the border cop who decided to play nice after 90 minutes of assholery, asking, "So, do you like CCR?"

Anyway. Always watch that left turn coming out of Thunder Bay. You never know where you might end up.

Well, upon return their behavior made the US side's police look like a bunch of anti-border libertarians.

Bwa-haw. People who get pinched, I dunno... you've only got 40 miles with distance signs saying 'Duluth' 'Bridge to USA' 'Minneapolis-St.Paul' and billboards for 'Ryden's Border Store' and 'Grand Portage, MN' 'Lutsen, MN' 'Grand Marais, MN' ...

When fugitives/crims get busted at the US border, I always figure it's because they can't read, can't read a map, or are very, very high.

If you take that left, it'll say Highway 61 as well. It starts in Thunder Bay and ends in New Orleans.

Oh, it took a whole lot of stoopid to end up where we ended up. I can't deny that. Still, $180...?? We didn't even leave the country! And leave Fogerty out of it!!

[Peregrine]

I'd love to hang out with a bunch of RI'ers again!

[Sepka]

This could turn into something BIG: RigIntCon 2011 Toronto.

Come dressed as your favourite poster. We'll have a costume competition!

Ooo! Now I'm tempted!
