Dan’s comments from the fiction files redux group.

So yeah, I am interested in this idea. Count me in.


Also, do you want me to move this thread up to the general section to get more eyes on it?

The best I can say at this point is maybe, but not likely. In a giant move of idiocy Katie and I forgot our passports and are having my parents fedex them to my friends house(It's costing a small fortune).

I think it was in reference to a 4G hotspot type of device.

Also, kind of a dumb thing but was it mentioned if they had a coffee grinder? I was going to bring whole beans but will grind ahead of time if necessary.

Hey Les, I called verizon and had to add 100mb of data to my phone for $25. All my texts were covered but calls were 89 cents an hour. I don't think.know if that helps in anyway, but it's my phone situation.

I just sent our payment! Can't wait to see you guys and rustle up some wild animals on the hikes!

This thread has gotten a little lengthy. Who do we send money to and how much do we send? To Mo? Smarty? I just don't have it together this year. :-/

It's certainly abridged running only 42 pages. I say go for it.

Excellent, now we will be able to discuss The Instructions in person (kidding)!

I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone!

Elizabeth is there an Enhaced Drivers license you could get or a PASS card?

Congrats Kerry!

Katie and I are still trying to figure out travel and I need to confirm I have that time off.

I'm gonna be looking into flying into Buffalo, Syracuse or some other American city and drive in. Flights into Canada can get expensive!

I too will weigh in to say that I am partial to being away from, but within striking distance, to a city (Toronto). I relish in being among friends and nature while being mostly disconnected.

Katie and I are 80% in.

So, I've continued to have some trouble getting through books. I did manage to fight my way through McEwan's sweet tooth which was rather boring. In fact, if I hadn't read it while in flight I probably would have given up on it.

I must say I am intrigued by all of this coming out. Documentary and bio aside it seems like Salinger is still getting his way with the books will be coming out on his terms.

I'm going to try to see the documentary next weekend.

Welcome back, Audra! Things have been too quiet in these parts lately.

Well, good luck in finding it miss.

Brian, your words bring me joy. I hope your reading relapse is massive and consuming. Welcome back!

I kind of like this as long as spirited debates are still allowed over books you are reading, books you won't ever read, and books many people have read.

Going to far in any direction (politeness or rudeness) makes for a dull time and possibly contributes to a very quiet group.
