Sounds like the ball is rolling. I'm gonna talk to my 'rents about Easter and book bus tickets up to Ottawa/Montreal.

when you talk, i dont care what it means, shouldn't just stare at you, should i?

For me the concern about transpo isn't really bad. Hope in the car, drive 2 hours. OH HI GUYS I'M HERE!

Hotel/Lodging a problem moreso, but I'm waiting to see what everyone else has planned.

I believe Lauren's hitting up a travel agent today. They're pretty good at wheelin' and dealin' good prices. We may have a ViaRail voucher for 50% our ride to New Brunswick because of a delay, so we might nab a train one way and a plane the other.

Yes, I went to my travel agent. It comes to about 478.00 leaving thursday at 6:30 am and coming back either sunday or monday on West Jet. It means connecting through toronto though which I think is a little weird. I'm going to check Porter Airlines.

Hate to tell you but the subway doesn't go there. You need a shuttle bus to Berri-Uqam (metro station) OR you get someone to pick you up. I'm lazy and don't have a driver's license. Plus, I have an exam on the Thursday night (stupid organic chemistry 3).

Wow - that's way more expensive than I thought it would be. We better make it worth your trip. No sleeping all weekend!

It's way more expensive than I thought it would be as well. It's a bit ridiculous.

Or the train, or the nothing.

I can stretch for funds, but $500 for travel alone is a bit unrealistic for the ol' broke student type. It's still 1.5 months away though. Things change, teleporters are invented etc.

sweet ass. that's right on the beginning of my spring break.

nice. well, that makes life pretty damned easy.

I could show up friday afternoon and stay until Monday or so. I doubt my fiancee would let me take her car...so I'm stuck with the van of doom. which isn't too bad, since I have a bed in the back of it, incase I can't afford a hotel and the bodies in pox's living room are stacked too high

Just to make things clear... I don't think anyone with like 100 posts, a 2008 sign-up date and no profile, that NO ONE have ever heard about should even bother going there and wasting money in an attempt to get some fame ;)

No worries, I have some money saved. Besides, this is a business trip, I'm coming to see pox so we can discuss artwork for my game.. which will already be out.. by then... :p

That's fine, when I came to toronto I took the shuttle downtown, where I wandered around for a few blocks before finding the hotel

well, from 2003 until the username lockdown a year or so ago, i was MALforPresident.

I've been a regular since about feb. 2003

but after a year or so I slowed down a lot, I made my 10,000th post sometime in 2006 and have only made a few thousand since then, I made about 5,000 posts my first year. I don't think I was very active when you first created your account, since it was near the end of 2003 and I had a few computer troubles if I recall. but early 2004 was a good time for my posting.
