1. Man... Yur a chickenshit

avoiding Florida like you've been.... What...ya think Jeb's gonna have you incarsarated...

[WilliamPitt]

5. Shaddap, fish

Been to the GOP stronghold of Arizona.

Been to the GOP stronghold of Colorado.

Been to the GOP stronghold of New Hampshire.

Been to the GOP stronghold of Montana.

Been to the fuckin' belly of the GOP beast in Texas.

Florida? Pfft. Wimps.

P.S. I haven't come to Florida yet because no one in Florida has arranged to have me come to Florida. I don't just *show up* places, ya know.

P.P.S. Hint hint.

P.P.P.S. Dolphins = my poop.

[Skittles]

6. NO NO NO NO NO

the belly of the f***ing GOP BEAST IS IN DALLAS I AM TELLING YOU

[VelmaD]

7. God yeah...

Will got off easy coming to Austin. Dallas has a nasty haze of evil black rethug karma hanging over it like a funeral shroud. *shudder*

[trumad]

10. Then send me a link to someone who has a link

to someone associated with you who has a link, to get advice on how to get you to Central Florida.

The University of Central Florida has a pretty progressive community and I'm sure we can arrange the event. I'll talk to DU'er TRoosevelt and TAIS about it...(They attend UCF) and see what they can come up with...)

BUT seriously... Who do I reach out to to get this moving?

BTW: We can arrange it around the Pat's/Phins game and I'll throw a big ass football party...

[WilliamPitt]

19. Talk to GOPisEvil

He will tell you all you need to know.

[_Wayne_]

44. Heh, come to Northeast Florida

It's GOP headquarters. The City Council, Mayor, Sheriff, Business Community, State Representatives, National Representatives, Attorney General, et al are Republican. Jacksonville is where George Bush and Jeb Bush really mopped the floor with the Dems.

And don't get me started on our paper...

[Girlfriday]

2. Please, Please come to Pittsburgh

[Girlfriday]

3. Please, Please come to Pittsburgh

[trumad]

4. One more time

[mlawson]

8. Cool! I'll be there (Asheville)!

The Unitarian church is about five blocks from where I live. If you need directions or anything, let me know!!!

BTW, you gotta check out our downtown, Will!! Malaprops Bookstore is worth the effort alone.

[MattNC]

39. glad to see

there's someone else from Asheville on DU.

[mlawson]

42. There are more than us here.

I don't know them personally, however. Will you be at Will's talk?? See you there.

[supernova]

9. Hey Will

Looking forward to your UNC visit. I know Short Bus is too, though haven't seen him on here since the hurricane. If you need help with arrangements, let us know.

[VelmaD]

11. short bus will be there...

he's just a little out of pocket the next day or two. He'll likely post a thread explaining the whole thing when he gets back.

DV

[supernova]

13. Oohh! Do Tell!

I'm all ears. LOL!

[VelmaD]

15. Normally, I would...

dish the dirt (it's exciting news and he seems awfully happy) but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be keeping it all a secret or not. I'm an idiot and forgot to ask if it had been declassified yet.

You're just gonna have to hang on til he gets back home. Sorry.

[short bus president]

17. yes, you are supposed to be keeping

yer big ole SMARTMOUTH SHUT!!! Don't make me clown you up!

Gimme a few days to get back to NC and get settled. Everyone will find out my deep dark secret soon enough, when we have a bonfire and lots of beer, and I give Will Pitt a big wet sloppy full-on mouth kiss.

BTW - people here say "hi."

Now SHUT UP TALKIN' BOUT ME!!!

[VelmaD]

18. Did I give anything away?

NO I DID NOT!!!

So, quit yer bitchin'. God, you're a mouthy boy.

[Athletic Grrl]

30. Hey velma and short bus!

and all other Triangle DUers......

Go heckle that beeyotch Ann Coulter a good one on 10/1 will ya? I think she'll be speaking at the UNC Law school.

One more thing.......DUCK FUKE!

[VelmaD]

31. Not from the triangle

mores the pity since so many of my favorite people are gonna be there in the next few days. I'm in Texas. Damn shame too cause I think I could whup Ann Coulter's ass.

[supernova]

33. Would love to have you visit

I've always wanted to visit Austin too.

[VelmaD]

35. A visit to NC is likely...

in the not too distant future.

If you manage to see him during all the hulabaloo of Will's visit, give short bus a hug for me would ya?

[mlawson]

12. Will, fax me a flyer, and I'll put it up all over campus here!

I can put one on every bulletin board at UNC-A. Your lecture will be well received here...

Email me if you want, and I will send you our deparmental fax number.

[WilliamPitt]

20. I have no flyer

I'm TOTALLY comfortable with you making one up yourself.

[phillybri]

14. I hate UNC, but I'll be there!!!

Go Wolfpack!!!

[WillParkinson]

16. First a hurricane...

And now Will Pitt.

Best of luck to you while you're there, Will! Hope you can open some eyes.

[Elidor]

21. Man, I wish we could get you to come to Tennessee Tech in Cookeville

They had Molly Ivins speak a few years back, and I believe we're overdue for our next liberal firebrand. But I'm no longer affiliated with the university and therefor couldn't arrange anything. But damn, I'd sure buy you enough drinks to give you a death-dealing hangover that would have you cursing my name. I'd even let you dance with my girlfriend, and I don't say that lightly, hehe.

If you're ever headed to Nashville or Knoxville, give us Tennessee DUers a heads up.

[unfrigginreal]

22. Why no Charlotte stop, Will?

Big city although it is very conservative.

[WilliamPitt]

26. I didn't pick the spots

[mikita]

23. hope to see you at the Boone stop!...

mikita

[newyawker99]

32. Hey Will, I found my book!

You wanna come back to Houston and sign it?

Wouldn't you know... it was in my suitcase.

Hope you are well and have fond memories of your trip down south. TX ain't that bad, is it?

[WilliamPitt]
