	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

It was definetly good fun . I wouldn't mind at all hanging with Victor, Stray, Q and JohnT again . Of course that means Stray and John have to make a long trip... maybe I'll take a road trip .

Yeah, next time we need to be a little geekier. Hey, we should play a game of Risk!

K-town is 3½-4 hrs from ATL compared to 2½-3 from Disgusta. My trip back was a little under 2½ because of the empty highways after the holiday exodus. I also saw a brilliant double rainbow and tried to take a picture of it.
I couldn't find my disposible camera because I didn't look in my briefcase. I distinctly remembered putting it in the glovebox. It would make too much sense to put it in my briefcase, where I found it when looking for my chapstick before I left the parking lot.

So, anyway, I found myself driving straight towards the base of the awesome rainbow so I picked up the camera and snapped a shot through the windshield. We'll see if it was even pointed in the right direction.

Those pictures look like they were taken in 1985.

At the Varsity? Sweet .

But if we do that, we should get costumes and military regalia and the sort .

Depends upon how you drive it.

Laura made it from Knoxville to I75/85 in 2:45 on the way down and I did it in 3:15 on the way up. But when I drove, we had more bathroom stops... Laura seems to plan it that way so that she can say she was quicker.

Again, depends upon how you drive it.

Well, I usually drive about 2-4 mph above the speed limit. Faster than that is usually more stressful. With 70 mph speed limits in most areas, yeah, it is quicker than memories from the old 55-65 days.

I know the East TN drivers are loonies; maybe that has rubbed off on ya.

Straybow -- for some reason, your avatar reminds me of an old game -- maybe from SNES??

To make it even geekier, play Lord of the Rings Risk. It's a lot of fun. Theben got it for me for Xmas. Even Bunnygrrl likes playing it.

The one thing that I hate wasting more than anything is time. Therefore I usually drive about 10% above the posted speed limit, as long as the limit is +40mph.

And, no, I'd think we'd find a better place to play Risk than The Varsity with all the din and the tiny tables. I bet we could find a Borders or something.

Bah... I'm more of a history geek than a LOTR geek anyday .

Yeah, the tiny tables could mess up the Risk fun .

Hmmm, is everyone familiar with 'six degrees of separation?'

Just wondering how that would stack up with Apolyton meets considering I met Victor a few years back in London...

That would make the rest of you guys two degrees of separation - I feel a thread coming on!

Yeah, with me having been in London twice for Poly meets, and JohnT meeting all sorts of Apolytoners across the US, that should connect most of us.
