Yeah Signor, you HAVE TO sit by me and tell me what the dishes are. You were a big help to me last year.

I still say Santino should treat Mama. After all she is driving long distance to see Santino and the other members of the family.

You're off the hook Mig. I won't be there on friday.

Or perhaps that let's me off the hook!

I guess it depends on how you look at it.

I really wish I could have made it to the convention this year.

In any event, I hope everyone has a great time this weekend!

Maybe next year, XDC.

I hope Mig arrives safely... she's on her way there now and judging by where she should be (travelling wise) now they're getting slammed by some severe weather.

Have a good time people???

That sucks. I hope that she and the family are ok.

I haven't put on the Weather Channel today, so I had no idea what Mig was driving through (Becky too?).

I know the east coast is supposed to have gorgeous weather for Saturday and Sunday.

Signor V.

Absolutely... great for walking/crawling!

You're gonna get some nasty weather hitting in about an hour.

Later, everyone!

I'll pop in from time to time during this weekend, so be good!

Did your plans work out?

You just make sure that it doesn't pop OUT from time to time this weekend. YOU'D better be good!

See you tomorrow!

Well, right now my "plans" (such as they are) are for me to try and catch a train from Penn Station in Manhattan straight to New Brunswick, then get a cab to Panico's. If the dinner reservations are for 7:00PM, I should be there a little before that.

After that, anything can happen.

Hmmm....maybe I should bring "Ralphie"...

Signor V.

You book a room Vitelli?

Maybe if you have a Philly Cheesesteak, you can leave "Ralph" home!

No, I haven't booked a room. I'll probably end up taking a late train back to NYC. Not exactly a happy camper about the whole situation.

But at least I found out that Panico's is only around a block and a half from the train station.

And right now, it's thundering like all hell here in Brooklyn!

Signor V.

Well at least it's right there.

I took the liberty of pre ordering you a Philly Cheesesteak for an appetizer!

Bastardo!

You're starting to sound suspiciously like Pizzaboy!

Besides, Ralph was always a good earner - and you know me, I never go anywhere without my shoulder bag.

Signor V.

You missed the whole point of my Cheesesteak reference! Remember when we went for Philly Cheesesteaks last year? You weren't "Ralphing" when we got back to the hotel.......but you couldn't leave your room.

That's what I was trying to joke about with you.

I'm throwing in the towel! I can't edit my posts fast enough to keep up with you!

I'm not that clever...all I want is a truce.

But no, I do not plan on "seeing Ralph" (as we used to say in my college days) anytime soon.

Philly cheesesteaks are not my friend.

But I'm starting to think that you may have missed my "Ralph" reference! (Heheheheheh...)

Signor V.

Hmmmmm. I wonder if he's talking about the internet.

Webmasters,

Do you pop out at parties?

Are you unpoopular?



Preferred by discriminating Webmasters 2 to 1!

Geoff, DMC and Mig should all be there by now... its a question of how sober everyone'll be... they're about to get POUNDED by severe thunderstorms (probably within 20 minutes).

I don't think it rains inside of bars, so they should be safe.

I just called Geoff to see if everyone got there ok. They all did but said that they were in horrific driving conditions. Geoff told me that he was going about 2 miles per hour and that people were pulled over to the side.

Was he alone this time???

No tongue involved either I guess.

Don't know about that.

But someone was in the car with him and the tongue the last time saying "Monday -- Tuesday -- Thursday -- Wednesday -- Friday -- Sunday -- Saturday... Andiamo!"

You two are mean... picking on someone who ain't here to defend himself.

(I bet it was only ONE mph)

In somerset, it was 25 miles per hour. Let's not blow things out of proportion.

Maybe you should re-phrase that!
