Well, the Bears are playing Sunday, so that was a red herring.

I guess we will start around 6 o'clock and maybe order pizza or something once most people have arrived.

I've been getting really behind on my study schedule for the CPA exam. Sorry there Turbo, but I think I'm going to have to sit this one out.

Could be worse as far as nicknames go. We had to come up with a nickname for the new guy at work named "Brad" since we already had a "Brad" on the detail. We started calling him "Little Brad" (due to his stature). In Spanish, that became "Brad Menor." So his full name would be Brad Menor Williams, which became "BMW," which became "Beemer." He likes that, so we stuck with it.

Anyways, 6:00 sounds good.

DVDMaster has given me the nickname "Turbo" because he thinks Turbo was the character who was the jousting champ on American Gladiators and I have that big lance for my Obi-Wan costume. Extensive web searching has led me to Turbo's record and he was 20-4 over 6 seasons in the Joust. At least one guy did it more often, but had a worse overall record.

I think so. We are starting around 6, but I expect we'll go to at least 11.

BTW, you can BYOB.

I used mapquest.com to get directions....assuming they are right, but it looks right by the map. Should I BYOC...Cola/Soda? Would you like something else like chips, snacks, ...etc?

I would say that if you want a specific beverage, bring it. Otherwise, one bag of chips or something will suffice. In the past, we've had way more snack food than we've needed.

There were some other Gladiators that Jousted more often (Gemini went 38-8-4), but Turbo just sounded good for now. He may earn another nickname in time. But for now Glenn's going to be associated with "American Gladiators" as long as he insists on carrying the lance everywhere.

Sounds like the party will be good too bad I'll be busy with studying.

I'll bring my box as well. Steiny, do you have 2 tvs where we can get some team games going? I will bring a hub and plenty of cabling if we would need to spread distance between rooms etc.

Well, my parents have a 52" screen in one room and then a 30+ screen in the exercise room which we could move closer. I don't think it has RCA inputs, so it would require an RF converter which I don't have, although we could use a VCR. Regardless, we probably need all the cabling you have. I don;t have a system link cable, but I do have two controllers and some extender cables and I'll try to find all of that.

I've got the movie all ready to burn except it seems like it is going to take days to render it all. I am going to try to convert much of it to MPG and then let Encore burn it to DVD, but will probably have to bring my desktop to the party.

I have a Sara Lee Apple pie that I was planning on cooking, but no danishes. Those were a one-time thing.
