Going back to the 16th Century this weekend
Carolina RenFest http://www.royalfaires.com/carolina/, but this time, with a few of the Georgia guys. They're only going one day and I'm going both. It looks like I'm going to lose another potential good girlfriend to job and career. She may be moving to DC; that's 2 in 2 years. :cry:

I need a break. :(

P.S. I get the first set of photos on Monday.

2. Not to worry
there are wizards, magic wands, and lots of beer for that.

7. That's right
habeas corpus (from the Magna Carta) is all but rescinded. Sometimes you have to go back to go forward...?
