Why aren't you going to the NE Ohio meet up?
I'm just trying to promote it. We want to see you there.

2. I live in SW Ohio and I don't think I can afford the gas
3. I don't know when or where it is

3. Here is the scoop

I'm poor too
I will buy you a beer
If you get trashed (and bring some women) I will let you stay here :)
How's that?

2. I live in Texas
That would be one heck of a trip! I couldn't afford the gas, even in my fuel efficient car!

5. I'd love a road trip, it's just not in the budget!
What part did you go to? We get the heat AND extreme humidity here. Nothing like 110 heat index with an ozone level red (don't go outside unless you have to if you're old or have asthma!).

7. I went to Glen Rose
It was actually "cool" for the time I was there. I went in August and it was in the 80s. But, being a musician and from the north (we are vampires..lol) we don't get out until night, so it was hot for me.
But actually, I love the south and Texas was fun. Glen Rose is about 60 miles south of Fort Worth.
It would be great to have you up here. I like Texas women :). And considering I was drinking a few martinis tonight, don't take it the wrong way, I just have a vision of a few Texans I have in my head right now.
Umm..anyway, it would be a great road trip for ya :)

8. I'm south of Houston
Today was pleasant, had the house opened up. A few days ago, we were already pushing 90.

I'm sure it would be a great road trip...I'm just perpetually broke.

10. Get your b/f to pay
That's what they are there for anyway. If he won't pay for it, he isn't worth it.

11. Well, my husband might have a problem with that
Besides, a road trip with two kids is NOT fun. (He touched me, she's looking at me!) My daughter gets car sick without Dramamine too.

14. I'm sorry hun
I say things off my head to be "funny". I am also not a parent. That's heavy stuff and I'm sure it can be a bit to deal with :hug:
Actually, it would be great to meet the whole gang. Maybe one day:)

15. It's all good
I was just saying those meds might clash with the Valium.

Yes, I would love to meet all of the DUers...but some from GD might be scary.

9. OK..I'll answer these
I Have to go to School- School never did anyone any good. It is a scam for the man to hold you down

I Hvae to go to Work-work is for suckers. Start a business

Its a 5 hour drive, and I cant drive yet- a Taxi isn't all that expensive

my parents wouldnt understand- Tell them that it is for the best of all mankind. A way to save the world.

I cant legally get drunk yet-that is legally anyway :P- I'll sneak you a few Pepsi's :)

18. I grew up in Clevo...
