Every time I think I should sit a DO out--because is it really worth flying for four hours (even in business), to eat for three--I am very pleasantly surprised. 

Had an awesome time once again,and had the opportunity to meet some cool new people and greet some familiar ones once again.

Kudos to all who made the effort to show up, thanks to Chuck and CM for the rides, thanks to super helpful Walmart associate for helping me unload just under $10k, thanks to Chuck for the cohiba, thanks to Shallots for the food, thanks to an anonymous donor for the barter, and thanks to Mrs. AJK for not leaving me while I was gone.

I am so stuffed.

Well, for the other trips, most of them anyway, she's with me, so I handcuff her to my wrist.

Had a great time. These DO's need to be a couple of days not hours.  ;)
I just found a new supply of forks!

Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Great write-up. Quote, "Because nothing unites people like miles!" How about, "Because nothing unites people like miles and great food."?

(esp. after a fast day, and it's a legal holiday...)

Open for everyone.
What would happen if one of the 10 was a noob ?
Seriously would he be welcome and comfortable ?

So jealous and had I been stateside, I would definitely show up, I'm just a tiny shameful for it.

Then you would sit quietly & take it all in & learn lots of stuff you never knew.
