Really? People still look at that? I should do something with that one of
these days...

This'll be good.

Calum talking about his job. I could have used other words than 'talking' but
this is a PG 13 show...

I want to take a tour and take pics. Dunno how close they'll let me to the
capital buildings due to my 'status' as a disenter

K, now I'm finally getting in the mood. The announcement is as follows--
The Technic I am bringing consists of one (1) modified 8448.
The train stuff I'm bringing hasn't been decided yet 'cause it's like "Wow I
have alotta rolling stock and are they gonna DCC or not..." but I'll arrive with
a few pieces from my consist.
What else...
Oh, for Calum, I'll probably end up bringing two (2) Kodak DC120 Digital Science
digital cameras...
I'd bring an RCX if we're doing DCC, but that's the only thing I have up and
running on an RCX right now. Even LOR is dismantled... *snif*
Nope, nothing else.
Looking forward to meeting many folks in DC!
Dave K
