Sorry about that. Apparently there was a power outtage last Thursday while I was out of town. The servers drained out the UPS' batteries after an hour or so. I fired everything back up yesterday.

Maybe we can get David and Dan to do one... I'll post in their forum.

Pow-Wow starts at 7:30-8pm, or whenever you can get there. Call me if you'll be early so I can be sure to be home. I'll be picking up the shirts that afternoon. PM me if you need my address or directions. I need an idea of who's coming by Thursday so I can have enough beer and pizza.

Jenkins - can I ask a favor? Can I use Amber's truck to carry the drinks and some prizes? I can fit some, but not all of the prizes and then there's no way I can fit all of the drinks. If it's cool, we'll talk details Friday night.

If I remember correctly, I think David mentioned that he's bringing his video camera.

When I get there, I'm going to ban every one of you in person!!! j/k I'm actually a nice guy. I just play an *** on the internet.

Me and Brillo may choose to come up Friday night depending on if we are going to get hit by the hurricane on Saturday or not. Might need to find a place to stay for the night. Won't know until then.

Speaking of Hurricane.. have you guys scheduled a rain date or alternate location.

If Galveston/Houston gets the Hurricane you guys might get a couple inches of rain.





Best of luck to Dazy and the QSBBQ Team, your gonna need it.

Thanks Killjoy. No, no alternate plans have been made. All weather tracks (and believe me, I've been watching ALL of them) show Rita to make landfall on Sat morning. Our local forecast calls for 30% chance of rain, but I think that's if the storm makes its way inland. There is a pavilion, but I don't think all 177 people can fit under it at the same time. We'll talk about that at our meet tonight.

My roommate and I may also be hosting some family/friends from that area if they choose to evacuate. We'll see......

RotaryGod - the rates for the hotel rooms are good for up to 2 days before or 2 days after.

^^ that's what I was thinking. If we get any rain that day, it'll be closer to the end of the BBQ, especially since it won't make landfall until that morning. At least that's of this morning. It's too early to tell really... lemme marinate on it (but my gut is telling me the BBQ is on rain or shine...)

I am delicate like a flower... but even i will come regardless of the rain.
I doubt it becomes a factor. How strong is this hurricane? It may not even make it all the way to Dallas. Just in case... i'll bring 2 umbrellas.

In other news. I definetely want to come early and help volunteer, but I can't make the meeting the night before Even with the temptation of Pizza and Beer
Can i still volunteer? Can you just brief me on the morning of the BBQ?

Since the BBQ is Saturday, I don't think there will be any rain issues in Dallas. If there are they will be scattered showers from the extreme outer rain bands of the storm. Sunday should be a bad day though. The worst will be for those of us who are planning to drive there and back from Houston during the hurricane.

Rita was designated a Cat 2 at 12:15 CST.

Expected to easily grow to a 3 before Wednesday PM.
