I'm not going to come up this weekend. It looks like we won't all be able to get together all at once, and I have some responsibilities here at home. I will come up another time when I can see everyone.

Carlos, Paul wants you to come rescue him from the fair on Saturday. He's free from noon to 9 PM and expects to be bored out of his mind, but won't have a ride to leave. Give him a call.

Wombat, he is planning on staying in B-more Sunday night and showing up at your place on Monday. I don't know what this means for your plans, but y'all will have to work that out without me. You or Bobby should also call him. And somebody should get in touch with Cort, too -- maybe he's free Monday night?

Paul left after lunch at an authentic Carolina Barbecue place, where he tried Eastern 'Cue and declared it "excellent." What a fun guy. He even took Chaos Girl for a spin in Dragonfire:





He has the best pictures. He'll share them when he gets home.

JL, sorry to hear it. I'll give Paul a ring on Saturday and work something out. Wombat, I can message you via FB or here but I don't have a cell number or anything for you. If I end up driving to Baltimore in the late afternoon I could come via the city and pick you up if you want.

"Yeah I met this guy on the internets and he put my little girl in a flaming car. Its cool, though. We share a common interest in cartoons, you see."

I...did not tell my mother he was here. Conveniently, she is out of town, so I didn't have to lie so much as conveniently omit.

Also, Paul has the pics of the two of us on top of his car, holding on to the stripper pole while flames dance behind us. I made him stand on the side with the flames. He singed his hair a little. It was awesome.

Also: Inev, Paul just texted me from the Wilco show and asked me to tell you that Lee Renaldo is opening. I am going to assume you know what that means, because I sure as hell don't.

Lee Renaldo is one of the dudes from Sonic Youth, the band that basically invented hipster noise rock.

It being a hipster band, it is assumed it will make Dan cream his cupcakes.

Weird, because Paul also texted me with that information. That is pretty cool.

I saw Wilco and the Lee Ranaldo band Wednesday night. Good show. Lee's band rocked fairly hard but had the disadvantage of not many people paying attention to them. At least up on the lawn--Wolf Trap is one of those "barn" venues where there's seats down close and then a big lawn area. Wolf Trap lets you bring in food and drink (even alcohol), so people are mostly chatting and noshing during the opening act.

Wilco put on a good show, but again, it was fairly mellow for us.

Yeah, where I'm gonna see them is just a bandstand on the grounds of the Ommegang Brewery outside of Cooperstown.

Maybe it's purposefully a tour of somewhat offbeat sites?
