For all of you going to Beltring...

I'm a multifaceted kind of feller, and my hobbies are my passion. On one
hand, there's my big green beastie and my lil' green beastie. There's also
my participation in a medival recreation group, where we don armor (yes,
real plate steel hardsuits) and bash upon one another in gleeful abandon.

For my medival bent, there is an event that takes place in the summer at a
place called Cooper's Farm in western Pennsylvania. This is the Superbowl,
the Mecca, the one event for us medival types that should be attended at
least once during your life... Needless to say, I would love to go, but
then I get a dose of reality, and the trip gets bumped down to a very low
priority. *deep heartfelt sigh*

Now, just when I thought it was safe to get into another hobby, I find out
that there's ANOTHER major go-at-least-once-in-your-life event, and this
one is even further away!

First off: Gee, thanks a whole hulluvalot! Now I've got to REALLY tap
dance for the finance officer (the wife) : "Pleeeze canna canna canna go?
All the guys are gonna be there!"

Second off: Ya'll will be coming back with all kinds of neat stories,
pictures, t-shirts, various items which the scent of motor oil and furrin
gas-o-lene all other them...

If you think of us, bring back a couple of shirts. You know, the ones that
say:

"MY BUDDY WENT TO BELTRING Y2K, AND ALL HE BROUGHT ME BACK WAS THIS
T-SHIRT!"

;-D

Have a good time!

Bill
