Originally posted by Iron_Ranger: I hear Atlanta is bad year around You know, I just might be able to go, I doubt it though. Me and my family are planning a vacation in October, We plan on going to Tennesee, maybe I could convince them to go down to Atlanta, I doubt it though. It would be rather odd to have a 14 year old there anyway, no?

Hey, your 14 y/o could play with SomeGuy. About Atlanta, Randy Newman sang:

We got oilmen from Texas, good ol' boys from Tennessee,
College men from L.S.U., went in dumb, came out dumb, too,
Hustling 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes,
Keepin' the {expletive deleted} down!

(Chorus) We're rednecks, rednecks,
Don't know our ass from a hole in the ground.
We are rednecks, rednecks,

Keepin' the {expletive deleted} down! (from the song "Rednecks," on the Good Old Boys album)

I will help find a hotel to "host" us if you like (unless Ziroc already has a place in mind).

Let me know -

1. How many of you will need a room?
2. What price range you want to pay?
3. Where you prefer to stay (downtown or perimeter)?
[/QUOTE]1)me need a room
2)How about a mid-grade hotel? Also would anyone want to split the price of a room?
3)As long as it has a bar.......

For the ones that have tight parents...why would it be a problem for them to come along? You are not meeting "somebody" on the internet...you are meeting a whole tribe of devout followers of Chocolate the Cyber-cat.

By the way, I have friends in Atlanta so I do not need a room, as they will let me and my family stay with them. It's good to have connections!

One more thing...I need to know when soon enough to be able to work my vacations days on this trip. Let's please decide this soon. My boss likes an advance warning about these things, and I have to make sure that a substitute is set in place before he'll say yes.

My wife and baby will be coming with me, and it would be cool to do this on a Friday evening and Saturday. Just my thoughts, nothing more...

Dude, I visit Florida every winter. So if you are having a party in Florida and want me to come along, do it in winter. If you don't want me there, have it whenever you want. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL, Larry, I don't have tight parents, I have an economical wife.

Well, It will probably be in mid or early October--reason is:

1. King's Island in Ohio (a Theme park I always went too--it's where 'The Beast' is) and they are only open for 2 weekends in Oct before they close.
website for Paramount's King's Island is www.pki.com

2. I wanna go to the Kentucky Flea Market--it's HUGE! And not like some fleamarkets where they sell NEW stuff--it's a lot more antique stuff.. LOVE it, and it happens either the first or last weekend of October.
(October 25-26-27, 2002)

So give me a week or so to tie down some dates so I can do all this smoothly. Here would be my schedule:

1. Fly up to Atlanta and join/kick off the party doing a 2 day thing.. maybe we could go to Six Flags near Atlanta? (AWESOME theme park)

2. Fly to Louisville, KY, get rental car and drive to my Sisters place in Lexington. Visit. Check out Fall colors in the Country.

3. Go to King's Island for a day in Cincinatti, OH.
4. Go to 2000 Table KY Flea Market
5. Do other things the rest of the week..
6. Fly back to CRAPPY Florida! (Rain Cap. of the FREAKING WORLD!) [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

heh "Hey mom, dad, wanna take a trip to Atlanta?"
I can already guess the responce to that question

Yes, you WILL be here in a couple years, otherwise i'll hunt ya'll down

[Chewbacca]

Hey I was born in Louisville as well, circa 1973. Its a small world after all!
Not to mention my brother lives in Atlanta.

Although I've only made a few aquaintences on these forums, I would love to socialize and perhaps make some new friends, especially considering the quality of this community in general.

Anyhoo, I'll be within 2hrs of "Hotlanta" in mid october, if its then, I'll show!

[Bahamut]

Memnoch and I are on the same side on the planet that is opposite to the U.S... bah... so the answer is I can't make it... have funa nd enjoy the party though!!!

[Horatio]

Can't come, sorry. Down one for me. Or throw it across the Atlantic? Maybe I'll catch it.
I didn't makre the London one either, even though I LIVE THERE!!! I wasn't told. I still think there's some kind of conspiracy that you all worked out to not talk about it in front of me or something. I WILL watch... *makes shift eye movements*
