Say that when you drive to drive in one of those cities. :)

Remember Athena, that you have a licence to kill, not to break the traffic laws.

Other kid did so in Drivers Ed a couple weeks ago.... :)

i'm IN one of those cities... damn. It’s actually not so bad when you're not in LA city though and only in LA County.

I never found the traffic to be that bad in LA. If you avoid the rush hour times then it's not bad at all. I honestly think driving in Denver, CO is much worse with regards to traffic.

I live here in the Midwest, and I am sure hell will freeze over before they show Thunderball around here.

Oh, God, I have absolutely no interest in going to NY. Not my favorite part of the country at all. I know it may be to others, but I'll stay where I am, thank you very much.

Well, it's refreshing to hear, after consistently listening to solitaire's inflated opinion of The Empire State. :)

I don't mind New Yorkers, as long as they aren't Yankees fans! :) :)

Those of you who attended, how was it?

Saw the show Saturday-not bad! Some songs were performed better than others. Their cover of
"Ambushers" was pretty spot on. Any of the "usual CBn suspects" there Saturday?

Yes, did anyone go to the screening? I would love to hear about the print. What logo was on the head? How'd it look? Which version of the pool scene did it have? "Now you can tell them about the one that got away", or the other line (can't remember what that was right now).

I was at the Saturday show and had a great time. As noted above, some songs were done better than others, but a fun out out nonetheless.

Where were you seated, TRS? I was at the last booth, with the people I went with, nearest the bar. I had fun, Athena, though I might've enjoyed myself more if I had had someone to go with. Sure, I was there with a small group but, they were all paired off.

Well then, how's this for an amazing cooincidence, I was seated at the same booth, across from you.

:)

We were the couple that ran into your group upstairs and then ended up sharing said booth. Didn't realize we were fellow CBn'rs, although we did discuss CBn during the course of the evening, as well as other topics.

Well, doubly nice to have met you. Small world.

I thought that might be a possibility. Nice to have met you, too. Talk about a truly small world!
