people...post your cell numbers on the 'other on-topic board' please. I promise I won't use up all your minutes...but it'd be nice to get a hold of someone on thursday while I'm backpacking through Boston with no idea how to get anywhere 'cept my badly hand written maps that I jotted down last minute right before I headed to the airport!

Where? I can't seem to find it. Anyhoo, mine is 617 501 AROD (You can remember it by thinking "after work, I like to watch the Sox"). But my minutes are $0.25 each, so save the chit-chat for when you see me in person.

So are we gonna be putting up any of these sweet posters, or what? Hack, I'll be biking right past your house (Cedar Street, right?) to get to work tomorrow morning around 10:45. If you leave a couple on the porch I can grab them as I pass by, put one in the window at the restaurant and make copies of the other to put up around Ball Square and Brighton and Berklee. Just PM me the house number if you do it so I know where to look. Or, you could stop by the Urban Gourmet in Ball Square and drop some off, I'll be there between 11 and 4.
Let cake eat them.

I'll be stopping at at least one DD on the way in tomorrow, but just for coffee.

I might be able to bring a guitar or guitar-like instrument.

Quick! What should it be?

Peavey T60
Epi 335

Uh, that's all that might be worth bringing.

I have a nice soft case that would make for really easy transport, but the 335 wouldn't fit. Hard case would have to come for that. Also, the T60 is fucking heavy.

I'm heading over myself. See you all soon!

I pasted your name straight from the thread. The only thing I changed was the initial caps on fluffy's name, which bzl made me change back. But if we decide to print up any nice ones, I can correct it easily.
