If East Coast CDP virgins are allowed, I'd be honored to join you.

That sucks and shouldn't have happened. I can see how trying to collect from everyone after the fact would be a challenge though. |

Be sure and overcharge for it this time and give the excess to Otis to hire a maid. Joe ----- Wine is like potato chips around me...if it's open, it's gone. |

As a dual citizen of Canada and USA, now living in the land of Lincoln, I would gladly offer my "CanAmerican" interpreter services at this event - hockey, oot and aboot, eh? Except for anyone from Quebec, who I found that no one can understand - perhaps caused from having to deal with the SAQ? If contributions are welcome, cidre de glace and Ice wines show what can be made in the GWN.

An excellent plan! As soon as we know who's coming, and where everyone's staying I'll look into bus service up to the 'burbs. Included in that cost will be a slight "overage" fee and a "clean up Otis's house" fee. ******* We'll get 'em next year! |

I'd love to, otis, but we're taking a 19 day vacation just before that and I can't get away again. I appreciate the offer and your generosity. I hope to have you here in NY in the not-too-distant future. Just one more sip. |

I once knew a buttless chap. He was OK as long as he was standing up.
Do you think he'll be there? ___________________________ Cheers! |

Well, I can't let PH have Skosh all to himself!
When I first started following these boards I've wanted to attend this wine-o-rama. Talk about generosity and cameraderie! If you don't mind a third Marylander, I'd love to attend. Please put me down for one. Thanks! This message has been edited. Last edited by: Festiva, |

Your a sucker for punishment Otis...
Actually, your generosity is unparalleled. Good luck with this CDP. Canadian weather? Nine months of hockey and three months of bad ice. |
