GAFilk Is Out

A few things have come up, and I'm not going to be able to attend GAFilk this weekend. Damn shame, it's an excellent con. I hope you all have fun, and nosh some chopped pork and rutabaga down the street at Barbecue Kitchen, mmkay?

Who all is gonna be there?

I'm sad to say I almost certainly won't be there. I was planning to go, but I'm about to dial in for a conference call that is almost certainly going to involve the phrase "To make this work we're going to need all of you here on Saturday and Sunday." I will be shocked if it doesn't.

A shame. It's a fun con and it's only about a 3.5 hour drive.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was looking forward to seeing you and stuff.

Obviously I'll be there.

:( Too bad you can't make the con. That means I don't get to see you till Worldcon (if you are going) or OVFF.

I will be there and it will be my first GAFilk. I'll miss seeing you there.

Awww ... You'll be missed, Tom. :( I'll be there ... but then, I'm here every year. I consider it my "home away from home" con. :)

Dammit. Would it make any difference if I assembled lots of cute girls to pout at you? I'm sure I could find volunteers.

I'll be there, assuming the weather doesn't get worse...

I am saddened. I was really looking forward to seeing you again, now that you're ambulatory once more...not to mention hearing you. (I was singing "Operation Desert Storm" on the way to work this morning, just to get myself in the proper frame of mind for this weekend.) But thanks for the kind words about the con...and be assured that much barbecue-sauced meat will be consumed in your name.

If any of y'all go to coast con (yeah, I know it's not a midwest con, but TC is one of the guests) we'll be there....

Will we see you at Cap, Tom?

I'll miss you at GaFilk, but I hope that you have a good weekend anyway and good luck with solving the problems that keep you away, so you can come next year ;-)

So sad to hear you won't make it. I'll be there for my final filkcon before resuming the World Tour. Trying to avoid a little work drama of my own before that...
