Short notice, I guess. I had originally planned on driving myself but Christmas week I sold my car. I'm currently driving my old work truck which was previous parked for 3 years*. I just don't trust it enough yet to make the trip.

Anyway, if anybody in a non-smoking vehicle leaving from the Tidewater area has room for another guy, please PM me! I'm good for my share of the gas and a box of ammo in your favorite Walmart caliber.

* - I was still working, smartypants. I just didn't do any side work. :p

Since I'm still in an empty car I'll take you up on that seat, unless you want to catch a ride with me.

My car isn't really trustworthy either, but I think I may just attempt the drive anyway. :uhoh:

OK, maybe I just can't figure out that Socializer link... I can see folks names but no carpool info.

Anyone going from the Woodbridge, Stafford, or Fburg area looking to meet up?

URGENT: If anyone has an 12v DC to 110v AC inverter that plugs into a car cigarette lighter socket that I can use on lobby day please PM me. Any wattage will work, as long as it's higher that 10 watts.

Edit: I now have an inverter.

Hmm, I'll go with you if you're doing the breakfast. I want to go to the breakfast too!

There is a big difference between driving my unreliable car to Vienna and driving it to Richmond.

I don't have a seat, but I'd definitely like to find one as well. I'd really like to attend this again. But I was in a motorcycle wreck a few weeks ago, so driving the round trip would be more than my shoulder could manage.

I live in Hume, VA, about a half hour west of Manassas, and I'm looking for a ride to Lobby Day. I am willing to drive, but my car is kinda small. Home computer is busted, but I'll be checking in on my work computer on Sunday. Thanks to anyone who can help!

Email address is Frederick.Bram@paetec.com

Cell phone is 703-929-5695

VTME and Don't tread on me, I got two seats available. I'm picking up Danbus from his home cause its kinda on the way. If you wanna ride just pm me and we can work out where to meet up. I live just off Newtown Rd in Virginia Beach. Also, please be advised I am driving the M3, which is a coupe, but once you're in the back seats, they are pretty comfy.

Well, my water went out this morning, and may not come back until the ground thaws a bit. Getting a shower on Monday morning should be interesting. &*(&^ water company is useless. And they sent me a bill yesterday, too. The nerve.

You could always go over to citizens house and take a shower there. I'm sure he won't mind.

Dude this isn't a joke. It's all fun and games until your toilet doesn't work and you've been eating Taco Bell.
