KasieH, I don't have trainspotting, but there is a sort of music-video-ish bit in The Pillow Book... We really need a "flames of Hell" Graemlin.

We are going to need to get some money upfront, to cover the cost of renting the room and equipment and food and drink.
I'll get an email out to you when we finalize what we'll need. Of course, if you can't come we'll refund it.
So, as we get close, I'll need some info on diets - what types of food I need to have available for vegetarian and kosher requirements if we have any. There's going to be so many of us, I don't think it will be feasible to go out to any restaurants, we'll just cater in all the food. We have more fun sitting around and talking and stuff anyway than we do eating out.
Though, it was a priceless moment when Jenny Gardener asked the waiter in that restaurant for Miruvor.

My friend Taura and her boys came for a visit today. The boys played with Bionicles. Taura said, "What do we get to play with?"
She's a big LotR fan, so I got out my BK toys and action figures. She was trying to get my regular Frodo to sit in the boat when I heard a SNAP. Taura screamed.
"I broke your Frodo! I can't believe I broke your Frodo!"
Broken at the waist. Legs came off. We picked up the pieces.
"Something's missing," I said.
Taura screamed, "I lost Frodo's Man-part!" (This is even funnier when you realize that Taura is a very devout Baptist.)
So, I now have Squatting Frodo and Eunuch Frodo.
But my boxed set of the entire fellowship is on order, so who knows?

I love telling my mother about this, mainly because I am a snot of a son at times.
She's nearly convinced that you guys are stalkers, and that you've been scheming for half a year just to get me to come to Alabama so you can kidnap me and "God only knows what".
The idea of some of you sitting at an air port in ski masks makes me laugh.
However, I did tell her that I would keep an eye on Mack, as she does seem a bit questionable on the whole "kidnap me and lock me in her basement" deal. ::glare::
