Hobbes, where is that listed? I can't seem to find it on this site and the dates aren't listed next to each location in your post.

What is wrong with Kentucky? Especially Louisville? And by the way we get quite a few visitors every may!!!!! Posts: 2332 | Registered: Jul 2003

And, *ahem*, WHAT exactly would be wrong with West Virginia??? *looks at address and sees Huntington, WV.
Personally I'm glad he's coming to Louisville, Lexington, etc. etc. Because I may actually be able to make it to one of those places. It's a bit of a drive, but then I drive an hour every day to work so 2 or 3 hours isn't too much worse.

Hey, BannaOJ, can I make up part of that carpool? At least if the signing is during the school year...
I found this by following a few links off of the home page, but no, it isn't on hatrack directly. And I guess I lied, the dates aren't up, only a few of the locations are.

So we need to sell him on our regions. Perhaps I can convince him that the White Mountains or the Lakes Region of NH are good places to vacation?

Portland!!! He's FINALLY coming to Portland! Woohoo!! Oregon Hatrackers, look out! We're planning a party. Ralphie, Nato, Shigosei, Deirdre, Shan, Bees, and Khavanon are you up for it? (And everyone else that's around here)
BWAHAHAHAHA! I'm movin' down to Portland...hopefully in time to make that tour date! (Wow, are all those Jatraqueros from Portland? I should come visit y'all, eat your food, and otherwise annoy you no end.) Posts: 1595 | Registered: Feb 2003

BannaOJ, Can I join the carpool too? I can meet you somewhere near Purdue if you don't want to drive down to southern Indiana.

Indianapolis is along the way between Louisville and Dayton if you go 65N to 70E. That would break the trip into two shorter driving days. Indy has a P. F. Chang's (was that on the list of acceptable travel food stops?) which is part of Circle Center (yay! shopping). Meaning you can go from dinner to a movie in a decent theater without having to go outside.
Oh, and soon there will be a Hobbes near by. If that isn't a good selling point, I don't know what is! Posts: 3956 | Registered: Jun 2001

Doesn't Indy also have Cheeseburger in Paradise? We wanted to stop there on the way through last time, but the road construction detour went the wrong way.

Zotto! Come on down!! I can't speak for the rest of the gang, but you're welcome to come hang with me! (The rest of the gang is totally cool though...we'll have to celebrate your move and all get together!)
But, to stay on topic...PORTLAND!!! Woohoo!!

Narnia, Sorry, I won't be able to make it. I've moved to the East Coast. I'll have to catch him in Greensboro. -Bees

Please consider adding St. Louis MO to your list of places to visit. I know that we can offer you several advantages over these other places.
1) Free room in my spare bedroom. 2) All the Ramen noodles, Mac & Cheese, and Hotdogs that I have will be served to you at your convience. 3) We will allow you unlimited acces to the internet, specifically Hatrack, so you can post here saying how wonderful of a host we are. 4) Cash. I won't go into how much, but we are definately talking something in the double digits here. Heck, I might be willing to go as high as, well, $18.73

To BannaOJ and all the others who are interested in the Dayton Ohio signing. I LIVE in Dayton. I have met OSC three times for book signings here. It will be at a place called Books and Co. in a suburb of Dayton called Kettering. I am so going to be there. I am going to invite him and his wife to the OrneryCon III to be held next June.
If you are all in town let me know. There is a Damons ribs just a minutes walk from the book store where we could meet for munchies after the session.

Now the only thing bad I can see is if he is in town on Dec. 17. That is the day that ROTK opens. If he is here that day I might have to miss the signing.

Well, I'm excited about the Portland appearance. I'll be in Eugene for college, but if I can get up to Portland around finals, I'd be very happy.

I hope to see him in L.A., but I realize that November is going to be an eventful month for us, so it may not be feasible depending on the dates. There aren't many to whom Scott takes a back seat, but my wife and kid(s) are certainly among them.

Narnia: AAGGGHH! OSC finally comes to Oregon, and I'll be in Arizona for college! (Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll come while I'm on a break.) Posts: 3546 | Registered: Jul 2002

I know it would! I will do everything I can to get there. Do you know when OSC will be in Portland?

I'm hoping to go to the Pasadena one in LA. It's only a fifteen minute drive for me. Will it be at Vroman's again? Posts: 65 | Registered: Jun 2003

Scott did indeed have a signing in Prague. It's been a few years, but he's been invited back sometime, and probably will go.

I would like to point out that New York is a great place for a signing, especially Western New York. I even have an empty apartment you can stay in. Posts: 5422 | Registered: Dec 2001

I would like to point out that the amount of control Scott has over where and when he goes is ZERO. Sorry about that Posts: 780 | Registered: Jul 1999

Figures. Would it help if I prepared TOR a presentation on the positives of this area? Perhaps greased the wheels with some Bills/Dolphins tickets? Posts: 5422 | Registered: Dec 2001
