Sigil is flying me in Monday, Dec. 8th. I'll be getting in around 4:30, and probably to my hotel by 6pm and ready to roll out to meet folks.

Nothing is set in stone yet as to where I'll be that evening, but I would like everyone to be able to come out and laugh with me for a while.

I'll keep you posted. Check back here for updates.

Come visit Houston sometime! It's nice and warm here this time of year :D

I hope you have a good time in San Diego. I liked it when I was there. And if you have time, take a little side-trip to Monterey, I guarantee you'll enjoy it.

And I think it's cool that your trip starts on my b-day!! (shameless plug)

Ego
12-02-2003, 06:22 PM
... GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN REPRESENT!!!

so, maybe next time you wont fly to the other end of the united states.. :?

but i can laugh from a distance?

ill do what i can! /salute

Woody
12-02-2003, 06:35 PM
I do not live near Boston anymore. I moved mid september.

And my itenerary doesn't leave time for "side trips".

And who's Vlad?

why doesnt everybody come to rhode island!? yaaay...

on second thought... rhode island is a craphole

move along folks, nothing to see here

12-02-2003, 06:45 PM
Canadian and proud here. :) Besides, we got lots of cool people here already. I mean...look at me! lol

Ciarin
12-02-2003, 06:54 PM
Well, maybe some other time then.

For some reason Monterey has some kind of jedi mind trick that compels me to visit every so often.

Every time I take a trip to Cali, I make it a point to stop in Monterey.

My mother loved it there when she visited me. She loves Kinkade and she bought like 4 paintings there. (there's like 4 or 5 Kinkade galleries throughout Monterey and Pacific Grove for some reason)

LOL

I think KiTA meant Vhah, not Vlad..

Woody
12-02-2003, 07:57 PM
I wish I had more time down there... I mean...
There's SOE and Blizzard to visit too ya know.

**laughs**

of all the places the navy has sent us (aside from my home city of seattle) I loved San Diego the best. What a great time to be going too.. with the bitter cold coming in up here in the NE.

montery is a good 4 hours drive from northern san diego, even without traffic...still very cool though.

december 8th huh? ah kinna wait.

Woody
12-02-2003, 11:06 PM
Right now the plan is for Stir Fresh (http://www.stirfreshgrill.com) in Rancho Bernardo (http://www.stirfreshgrill.com/locations.asp), CA which is halfway between San Diego and Carlsbad, at around 7pm.

Thinking of showing up Raven?

Raven00x

LOL, my in-laws live in Rancho Bernado. Have fun surviving the traffic.


I like Canada, Kids in the Hall rocks (for those who dont know, Kids in the Hall is not the same as New kids on the block, had somebody get that confused... uhg) I went through BC to get to Alaska, it was very beautiful.

A tad too far for me to make it, unfortunately.

Aw, Woody's hitting the Left Coast and it's still too far away.

Bananas.

12-03-2003, 07:04 AM
if you're gonna go to Montery, my hometowns close =P stop by Santa clara. not much to see here, but yeah.

Keemo

If you're in the mood for burgers while you're out here, there are a couple places that you should try to go to. Jack in the Box has the Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger, which IMO is simply the best cheeseburger you'll find. The other one, which is a close second, is the Double Western Bacon Cheeseburger from Carl's Jr. I don't know if they have these chains out on the East Coast or not, but I know they aren't in the Mid-West (near Chicago anyways) so be sure and stop by one or both while you're out here, you won't regret it :wink: .

Wow! That's awesome Woody.

Looks like Sigil is getting ready to show us what they have been working on. I am not surprised that it is coming up soon either. It makes since that they would make a major announcement right around the time that their arch rival EQ2 is coming to market.

Have fun on your California visit. Oh and please give the "Vision" my best regards.

Heya Woody, may take a half-day that day and head down that way.. I am about 45 mins from Carlsbad (north) I am at the edge of Orange County.

Will see how work flow is on thurs, and can make better plans..

i hope ya'all have fun, but this must be said:

What about Ohio?*

*EDIT: don't be smart... i meant sometime in the future

Woody
12-03-2003, 11:53 AM
That'd be excellent Kudane. Hope you can make it out.

Kudane
12-03-2003, 11:53 AM
What about Ohio?

Is that close to San Diego???

Hehe it sounds like you need to go on tour to meet all your fans Woody :D

Woody
12-03-2003, 12:47 PM
Rhia, if time/money allowed... I certainly would.

Triv
12-03-2003, 02:50 PM
cool, come to my house woody, i'll pay you 100 bucks to teach me to draw. As for the Time issue...i'm sure you could get it on E-bay :D

Ciarin
12-03-2003, 03:06 PM
eh, probably wouldn't want to come back to bahston since you've lived here before.

wicked pissa.

Watch out for the moose.

(semi-lame Monty Python reference)

/waves at you from Oregon.

I moose once bit my sister...

Kaylen
12-03-2003, 05:41 PM
Come to my place, I'll cook you dinner (microwave pizza hut leftovers).

Woody
12-03-2003, 05:44 PM
Well... it's highly unlikely that I would come to anyone's HOUSE. That's what restaurants are for.

Raven00x
12-03-2003, 05:46 PM
espescially mongolian BBQ. mmm...mongolian barbeque....

Kaylen
12-03-2003, 05:47 PM
Quite right! We can go *out* to Pizza Hut!

Ciarin
12-03-2003, 05:49 PM
I haven't seen a Pizza Hut since I came to Boston..........

Triv
12-03-2003, 08:33 PM
you haven't tasted my home made cookies yet woody, if you had - you'd never leave

Ciarin
12-03-2003, 08:34 PM
they made of people!!!

Triv
12-03-2003, 08:35 PM
so...they'r still good!

Woody
12-03-2003, 08:53 PM
My actions have never been swayed by cookies. I'm not overly fond of "rich" sweetness.

Nosferatu
12-04-2003, 12:22 AM
They are = they're

Human Cookies - probably more salty than sweet. *grin*

Gnome Cookies, however, are just divine.

Velenka
12-04-2003, 12:25 AM
Maybe you could make him a mean plate of pasta?

Tiladien
12-04-2003, 01:22 AM
Hmm, yeah, a vague memory seems to be he has a fondness for pasgetti.

Rhiamon Fatesealer
12-04-2003, 10:25 AM
What about shrimp? Do you have a weakness for shrimp. Cause I make some shrimp that is to DIE for :D

Coffee

I cook the world's best duck flambé.

Catila Amano

Gnome Cookies, however, are just divine.That's because Gnome cookies aren't made from Gnomes! Woo! :D

Miosa
12-04-2003, 02:20 PM
Well, dang. You're flying in the day after I fly out for business. *laughing* At least I don't fly in the day after you fly out....

Fergit that Carl's Jr. stuff, though. If you must do fast food, In-n-Out is the way to go. You can see the real potato which becomes real fries!

Raven, where do you go for Mongolian BBQ? I've been working my way down Convoy St., but still haven't found a place I'd definitely have to go back.

This thread is about 5 minutes from pruning.

Looks like I'm really going to have to crack down on derails. And, start using the banometer.

12-04-2003, 02:32 PM
Hey Woody, while you visit SOE, use your chance to get at a GM 'puter and beef up your char. >=0)

>attempts to bring the thread back to the original topic<

Raven00x
12-04-2003, 02:43 PM
Can't say i've ever been to a mongolian barbeque around here, though some of my friends have been wanting to take me to one. Better late then never i suppose.

as for the burger joints, i have to agree. In-n-out burgers are better than most other places, however their fries leave a wierd fishy aftertaste in my mouth. must be because of the vegitable oil or something...

Woody
12-04-2003, 02:56 PM
But Qaeadar, I'm not visiting SOE. I'm visiting Sigil.

Penguin (:>(O ):
12-04-2003, 04:33 PM
I want to go to your poeples houses just to eat. Specially the shrimp. ANYWAY i think its cool that they thought of you to tell what they are doing before they release it to the public. That way you will be ready to deal with it all in comics, forums, and well just that greedy side of everyone where you know something before it happens.

Ciarin
12-04-2003, 04:35 PM
you can come over anytime, penguin.

Triv
12-04-2003, 05:37 PM
maybe i make an eq site, and give people food when they go there...that aughta get traffic

and that way, i can go to all the cool stuff like woody :D

Jete
12-04-2003, 06:55 PM
Bah, once again I just miss meeting you =/
dunno if you remember but I was around waay back in the day when GU was just starting up. Please give bill fisher noogies for me when you go to san diego =)

Kudane
12-05-2003, 12:02 PM

/bow..
