1. Safe travels to everyone already on their way.Report

2. Looking forward to seeing you all this weekend!Report

3. “I’ll be the guy with the beard who’s probably been drinking a little bit.” That’s like 60% of the men in Portland. You’ll fit right in, Burt.

   See you all soon!Report

   1. This one time, when I lived in Knoxville, I agreed to meet up with a friend to see a Vols game. We agreed to meet up at the intersection right near campus. When he couldn’t find me easily, he called me up and asked, “Where are you?” I told him “I’m right here! I’m the guy wearing the orange T-shirt.” Of course, everyone in about a three-mile radius was wearing orange t-shirts.

      I figured, this would be a similarly helpful piece of information.Report

4. So Jealous.Report

   1. X2Report

5. Can’t wait to meet you all, see a little baseball, drink a little,and not work.Report

6. Man, I am really excited to meet you guys. I’ve been reading this site daily since pretty much right after its inception (even though I didn’t start participating in any way ’til relatively recently) and so I’ve basically been reading this place since my early twenties (I turn thirty in a month). In a lot of ways some of you have been more influential on my thinking than perhaps anyone else out there, so…I dunno, I feel like I really need to thank you guys in person. Apologies in advance if I make it weird.

   Also, big shout-out to Slade for helping me out with lodging, he’s really doing me a big solid; I would not have been able to make it there without him.Report

7. I’m jealous and sad that this was not in the cards for me this year.Report

   1. I’m disappointed that both you and Aaron can’t make it. It would have been one hell of a road trip.Report

   2. Yes, you need to come to the next one.Report

8. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

   I’m buzzing and I don’t even know how I’m going to sleep tonight.

   Not, like, drugs/alcohol buzzing.Report

   1. I’m going to seek you out and make you ask me that SCOTUS question you never got to in Las Vegas.

      I hope you remember what it was.Report

      1. When people take out their SCOTUS, they usually like to keep it in Vegas…Report

      2. Was it whether we should make any distinction between whether a thing exists and what it is?Report

      3. Oh, jeez. I don’t even remember what I wanted to ask you yesterday.Report

   2. Okeydoke. Doing the last little things we have to do before we actually get in the car.

      See y’all soon!Report

      1. We’re in the (COS) airport and having a serious case of “HEY, none of those things used to be there.” which is particularly noteworthy given that Jaybird just got back from Qatar on the 1st…

         See y’all tonight!Report

         1. @maribou I’m at the Nines tonight. Let me know if you will be hanging there or somewhere else.Report

            1. @slade-the-leveller current plan is to (once checked in and up-freshened) catch up with the larger group, as long as they haven’t strayed too far away from where I can easily walk. I followed you on Twitter, if you have followed me back by the time i set up wifi in the room, I will dm you my cell (feel free to dm me your cell as well) so we can ping each other by text …Report

               1. @maribou Done.Report

9. Everything always takes longer than it takes. Even when you take that into account.

   We’re finally checked into the room and need to take a half hour to do two of the three s’es.

   See all y’all SOON!Report

10. Have fun all you rat bastards.Report

11. We had a real-life elevator etiquette issue.

    Trying to go downstairs last night, two elevators in a row had 15+ people in them. Which is, seriously, nuts. So we caught one that was going up, made it to the top where it filled, then rode it to the bottom floor, where we wanted to go in the first place.Report

12. A couple of co-workers are vacationing in Portland right now. Despite the anonymity of the intertubes, I’m pretty sure neither of them is among you.Report
