Nope, Travis just found out he has to pay in. So he can't afford to go. They still don't have his disability completed yet. He's living of 50% pay.

You could have Travis ask the IRS, I'm sure they'd tell him.

They could also probably confirm whether or not $150 makes a good friend or not

I'm in. Sorry it took so long for a definite; I didn't know if we would be deployed by now or not.

ryanalexander4 - NTX, (any NTXers need to split a room?)

Haven't booked yet, wanted to see if any stragglers like me still need to split.

Right up until someone hits a deer. There will be no official night runs at the state meet.

Somehow I doubt there was any "thinking" involved.

And what Thomas said, there will not be a "midnight" run at the state meet.

Because apparently you haven't been as observant of the wildlife in that area. On several previous State Meets (the ones based out of Kerrvile) there have been not one, but several, sitings of deer carcasses on the road from being hit by cars. Not to mention the huge signs with leaping deer on them every 10 miles. Don't think there have been any deer sitings in McKinney in about 100 years or so.... You hit a deer, your car is done, no questions asked.

Not to mention that if the fit hits the shan, you're a lot farther away from home and regular repairs, and the tow costs would be insane. And that's assuming that there's no injury to the driver.

If you want to do a night run, do it in the D/FW area, preferably with at least one other person so somebody can call in if/when something bad happens.
