Oooooo! I adore Christmas, I guess I am just a child at heart, I love the magic & wander of it; the colors, the smells, the presents and most of all the cookies. I love me some Christmas cookies, every kind except Pfeffernusse, they taste like chalk...yuck!
But I am quite taken with the idea of Festivus, anything that involves a pole & wrestling sounds like a good time to me :p

Well I won't be able to make the Delray Beach show:( It turns out that my co-worker is taking off the 29th, so I have to be in the office {sticks boo boo lip out & pouts} but it looks like Tampa is going to happen. I just need to change my airfare and look into lodging:) YIPEE!

I'm telling ya, Mr. Costanza was on to something. Show up with a list of grievances, then challenge the ol biddies to some feats of strength. They'll shoo you out before you can say "mullet."

All this talk about the Delray Beach show makes me sad that I won't be able to make it. Short of cloning myself and leaving the doppelganger in my place to man the office, I just can't figure out a way to make it happen. That and I wouldn't want to inflict the world with ....ehgads, gasp!.....two of me!

giggles, please...one of each of us is enuf insanity for the world. Sometimes my trophy wife wishes there weren't none of me so she'd shit colors if there were 2!

Now...back to the more important subject that keeps coming up this time of year. Always remember and never forget the sage words of Cosmo Kramer: "Festivus yes! Bagels no!"

whewww....Booked our flight last night for the Skipper dates—FYI to anyone else flying out from the west- fly into Orlando...save a couple hundred bucks…still 7 hours of travel time- no direct flight but figured saves us money for a rental car to trit-trot around Florida....

Now on to booking the hotel......

See you all real soon :)

I have a friend that goes to upstate NY to see his girlfriend 5 or 6 times a year and drives to Orlando so he can get a non-stop or a one-stop. TIA is one of the country's best airports--rates in the top 3 of polls consistently--but from some areas there ain't no way to get here from there.

From OIA to the area around Skipper's will take you 2 hours IF you come thru the Disney area unscathed. Dec 15 thru Jan 4 are THE busiest weeks of the year and I-4 will most likely come to a stop and add a good 30 mins to your trip. Bring snacks and your ipod. Unless you're coming through there after midnight or before 8 a.m. Since you'll have Florida plates on your rental car, do what us natives do: when you pass somebody from north of the Mason Dixon line, flick a booger on their windshield.

We figured we’ll stay the night in Orlando by the airport the night we get in as we will be getting in late-pick up the rental the next morning....and at least get to drive in the daylight from Orlando to Tampa to check out the area....check into the hotel and let the games begin :)

Now as I have been googling around I don’t see many points of “interest” on the I4 down to Tampa from Orlando....
Any of you locals know anything?
Or should we just keep our eyes on the prize and get on down to Tampa?

I’ll make sure to let Joe know about the customary booger flickin’Clay

Stop in Ybor City (right off I4 just as you get into Tampa) for an authentic Cuban sandwich at the Silver Ring Cafe (Tampa's oldest). The hand-rolled cigars @ El Sol are HIGHLY recommended. Super Cuban coffee too. Hey, when in Rome...!

Not too much else between here and O-town worth stopping for.

Other local recommendations available upon request!

Hey JohnDude...anybody hear from Mo? Mo you out there?? There may be a pre-show get-together in the planning for Jax so I'm trying to get a little feel for who all's gonna be in town, just in case. Hey dirt, is Teela coming do you know? You're still coming eh? How many of you are there?

Hey E...you forgot Dinosaur World. Can't come to Florida and miss that. Oh, and there's the rest stop just east of Lakeland that's in the middle of the Green Swamp.

Kimberly, if you come to Florida and say the I-4 (or worse yet, "the 4') then half the people will look at you like you're from another planet and the other half will look at you like you're from California (same difference.)

Lose the the. And a lot of us don't say freeway neither. Instead it's '...take the interstate until it ends at a tree stump, then turn..."

Ya see, some of us round here don't take too kindly to strangers.

Kimberly, in case you didn't know, they are talking about I-4 not the number 14 as it appears. I just figured that out.

Ok I got it- I got it...

Interstate 4–use as little proper English as possible-and by no means let anyone know I’m from California...

I’ll do my best to blend in ;)

Great to meet RiverRat at Freebird the other night. WELCOME tampanole38 and jeromejello to where it's all Mofro, all the time.

Thnx for the update on Silver Ring jj. Ya, LaTerisita is an excellent alternative.

See y'all soon!

FYI, I've got 2 tix for TONIGHT'S (FRIDAY) show. I don't think it's sold out yet, but if you want these at least you won't have to stand in a long line to buy yours, or even longer line for Will Call. Face value price, of course.
