we all know the real reason you now want to go is because you found out that im going to be there
: Way back at the first fo all the craziness that went on, the boys at View Askew tell us all it is going to be a secluded group of like 50 people and you need to place a 50 word or less speech.
: Great I'm all for that, I throw down my thoughts (which Karla will tell you was likely the close to the best one they received) and make my plans.
: I get an email saying I am going and then I get one that says, hang on Ming made a mistake, jumped the gun. wait out. I can deal with that no biggie it happens.
: Dates change. Now SB2 is on the 12th. Suddenly 600 people are going, you can hang for an hour then you gotta fuck off. well fuck me, I was going to travel 1400 kilometers to get there and for what, an hour....Wife says no you can't go now. I agree, I'd love to go but now can't justify if for an hour of hanging out.
: Kevin asks us for those who can't go to put there names on board. I do. I can't go.
: The dates change again, now not ONLY CAN I GO , BUT MY WIFE WANTS SAYS IT IS A SHAME YOU ARE NOT GOING BECAUSE I AM OFF THAT WEEKEND AND WE COULD HAVE GONE DOWN AND MADE A SIGHTSEEING TRIP OF IT.
: So now, I don't get to hang out with Maul and Queen and KArla and tons of other cool people I wanted to see, and I lost my spot at SB2, (which of course I was NEVER guaranteed to have, except for the email I got way back in the day that said yeah I was going and I was in the first time slot but was then revoked)
: I'm sorry if this sounds ungreatful or anything, but Kevin man I think you should have waited in asking for the NO go names until after you laid down the firm date. When you asked the date was the 12th and I couldn't go, now well never mind.
: I totally think it is awesome all the hard work you and Ming and Mike are putting into SB2, but somewhere along the way, I either screwed myself out of going, or you screwed me out of it.
: I'm sad, cause I wanted to be there, and guess a little mad at the same time. However I just don't understand who to be mad at. ME for being honest with you , or you for asking your question before you firmed up the date.
: bah well, I am only one man and you are still making 600 some people happy so cudos to you, just wish I was still one of the 600, perferrably in with Maul and Karla and Queeny where I should be.
: I gotta go feed the baby now.....(no not myself, my daughter)
: cheers
