Would that be Larry?

I can fix the travel by changing my flight to Thursday Night and then putting 6 hours on Roneski's Pilot Sports.

He wants to see ya...
Lardoggy...hmm...I could put the heat on him! But I suspect he has fully bailed. And now that I see Hexx askin' for a ride I guess we won't be riding on that scary Strat ride.
The "group" part of the paper being due on Monday is not an easy fix. If it were some 10 pager solo project I could edit for you and give you a little positive inspiration (since I love to write) this coming weekend and then the thing would be done early. But "group" sounds like you have serious meetings to write it?
I am sure that GP, Rone, and Navy and I alone would be a fabulous time that I can only dream up so I not going to do anything to make anyone feel bad if they want to come and can't. It is more a matter of I am willing to be of help to anyone if I even could be of service. I love meeting new people and especially cool people on here who I wouldn't mind cementing a friendship with for the years to come by actually getting to give them a hug and laugh with them for a few days in Vegas. Only you know if it is beyond my means to help...the paper is a big thing perhaps that is not something to "get around" for a party time in LV.
