March 2011. New Orleans. Maris Gras. Friday March 4th through about Tuesday March 8th. Anybody interested in going?
December 2012. Mexico. You can bet that if somebody's throwing a festival to celebrate the end of the mayan calendar / end of novelty, this will be the one of the weirdest parties in history. Anybody interested in going?

Mexico is a tentative for me. NO is a no.
I want to, but I don't know whether I can just yet. Mardis Gras sounds fun!

I'll probably be down there for Christmas anyway. Gulf coast though. Where in Mexico are you thinking? Yucatan?
Interested? Yes
Able? No.
Hope all of you who are able to get together have fun though.
I'm interested, but December 2012 is long term enough that I can probably plan for it better- I'm considering taking a second job at the moment and may be fairly busy over the next couple of months. I am planning on visiting Canada in the near future and I need to start planning to be able to visit Ireland again, while also putting away enough money to be able to make a potential second trip to Ireland on short notice (my grandparents are very old).
Mexico 2012 sounds like fun. I wonder how much I need to save to make the trip :)
Interest very!
Mardi Gras, I need to check the office politik / date invovled for next year.
Mexico sounds goddamn awesome. If we do find a "end of the world party", we need to mercilessly jake it.
I was thinking of doing Mardi Gras anyway since I have crash space in NOLA.
Maybe on Mexico. With luck, I'll be living somewhere closer to there anyway.
I'd go to both of I can...
you couldn't pay me to go to NOLA during Mardi Gras.
I'd be down for Mexico in 2012 though, provided I'm not out at sea on a job. I'm assuming that one would be in December, which would be a more likely time of year for me to have the time off.

you don't even have to get to the jail to buy your way out. I had to do it once. I clipped a curb in Cancun and got pulled over for DUI, I wasnt DUI, but the threat of mexico jail was enough for me. (in my defense, the curbs in the city are squared off, and about a foot tall, so when you clip one, it's pretty fucking obvious)
The cop had me follow him back to the precinct, park in the back, called his Sup over, took my license and told me thus: "Here are your choices, I can keep your license, you can come back tomorrow and see a magistrate about the DUI, and what happens happens.. or, you can give me $90.00 US right now, and that's for me and my partner here. I give you your license back and you drive away"
best $90 I ever spent.
So no one has suggested where in Mexico, which is a big fucking deal what with the state of the place at the border. All the batshit crazy apocalyptic end of the world parties will be happening at the pyramid sites unless the government shuts them down for stupidity-of-people reasons.
The yucatan coast is nice in the winter, if you don't mind a bunch of half naked european females and european men in banana hammocks.

150 miles exactly. We can day trip it if traffic and the Connecticut Worm Hole is on our side. Otherwise, it's the longest 150 miles you'll ever drive.

I think so, but I'm not sure how long the ride is. 2 1/2 hours from Providence?
I-95 in CT is strewn with the carcasses of unfortunate wildlife.
December 2012 in Mexico sounds fucking AWESOME. I think I might try to make that, Pixie too.
~~~Payne: assumes he has a job by then, which is by no means certain.
March I'm working.
December is plausible.
Well, if Cram, Payne/Pixie, 000, ECH, and more would be in Mexico for 2012, I'd have to find some way to make it.

That's pretty much my contingency as well. I'm not poor, but I would need to save up a bit for it.
Manhattan? What's in Manhattan? NYC is jerks. Fuck that spaghole!
2011 absolutely not happening for me.
Buuuut....2012 is a definite maybe. Circumstances are in the midst of changing, and I may find myself poor and destitute and far away or fat and happy and significantly closer. I do not know. So, I'll get back to you on that. :)
Yeah, March 2011 isn't that far away, but Dec 2012 -- who knows what any of us will be doing then?
I wanted to make a note of it now so that when it gets closer, we've already got a vibe of "Hey weren't we going to meet up somewhere?"
It'll be a big trip! But on the bright side, Mexico is cheap. If we reserve tickets / hotel way in advance, we can probably get a really good deal. Hard to commit to anything at this stage though!
an even better idea than renting hotel rooms would be to rent a couple of boats.
much higher "automatic getting laid" quotient and a much better place to be if people get REALLY stupid.
I'd consider going to Mexico, of, course like everyone else, I have no idea if I will be able to. But a massive boat party seems as good a reason as any to fly halfway across the world.
<-- still never going to mexico.
never never never

Well, this is just my SO, my daughter, and Freeky. None of us tend to get stupid outside of the comfort and dubious safety of our own home, and I won't be letting TGG bring "her" guns (ie, mine, which she has appropriated).
I think ECH meant other people getting stupid.
Which doesn't seem all that unlikely in Mexico, and especially in December 2012. Between the drugged up tourists, New Age Quetzocoatl enthusiasts, apocalypse fearing cultists, Mexican authorities and gangs, the chances of absolutely nothing going wrong seem fairly low.

True. Hotels, hostels, etc., will tell you to STFU, and may summon law enforcement. On a boat, up until something is dead, on fire, exploding, or sinking, you really have little chance of invoking outside interference without asking for it.

Sounds awesome. I'd certainly like to hit the 2012 one. We'll see.
Very interested in 2012. Also interested in March 2011, but that depends on when spring break falls for me, as well as funds.
I can be local guide and translator in Mexico, but it depends a lot on the location and date that is chosen.
well date is the end of maya calendar, so that's 21 december 2012.
place is whereever the most ufo cultists and apocalypse weirdos meet up, probably near some sort of ancient maya pyramid building temple thing.
it shouldn't be that hard to locate due to the bright solid beam of cosmic energy shooting from its top straight up into the sky communicating with our extraterrestrial forefathers.
I'm down for 2011. How would you other North-Eastern spags be getting down there? Road-trip? (I think that's the only way I could affnord it)
2012 sounds awesome, but I'm not sure if they'll let me leave the country...

I am planning on visiting Canada in the near future and I need to start planning to be able to visit Ireland again, while also putting away enough money to be able to make a potential second trip to Ireland on short notice (my grandparents are very old).
Canada is a wonderful place to visit. Still haven't gone to Niagra Falls yet. Hope to next visit.

December 2012. Mexico. You can bet that if somebody's throwing a festival to celebrate the end of the mayan calendar / end of novelty, this will be the one of the weirdest parties in history. Anybody interested in going?
This conflicts with my wedding.

you guys are getting hitched in December? Well, I'm not sure I could stand to miss an actual end-of-the-world PD party but I'd be sure to drop a gift off on my way through.
You'll just have to be the one to explain to D that it was already on fire when I gave it to you.

I'M
a fan of the Northern climate & places not heavily populated (physically).
I don't know about you, but I'm physically populating this place pretty heavily.
THEN
not at your place. was thinking more as in camping or at least not a tourist location.
On second thought, I'm not leaving my house unattended for the end of the world. I'm gonna stock up on pit bulls and guns, and stay home.

I'm going to the Meetrack and drink shitty whiskey.
Don't you wish you were me?

That sounds like an awesome place to be for the end of the world!
Belated reply to Cram's original question-both events sound amusing and scary in their own ways, give me enough advance notice to ask for vacation time and I'll try to attend. Mexico doesn't seem as intimidating if you're going in a group, and New Orleans would probably involve lots of good food and booze. Whee if either one happens!
If going to Mexico does happen, could we make sure in advance that everyone who's going is definitely legal to go to mexico and back? I don't really care about doing whatever, but it would suck BALLS if someone got put in jail not for doing crazy shit but for not having their paperwork done.
If there's any bailing out to be done, there had at least better be a damn good story behind it.
Bump.
The Field Trip post reminded me of this.
Is the Mexico 2012 trip still in the back of everyone's minds?
Most definitely. I think I have a bunch of people I live with also sold on the idea.
Off topic but
:lulz:
I remember GPOO. That was an entertaining month.

Rock on! I'd half consider selling my left nut to go on this trip.
let's hope it doesn't come to that. :scared:
Were there any plans of an England meetup this late summer/autumn? I thought there was, but then I didn't hear anything, who'd go?
If I go to any non-US Meet-ups in 2012 it would probably only just be one. Likely it would be the Amsterdam one if I had to choose.

If there were an England meet up in 2012, that would allow me to possibly do two international meet-ups, though I would likely spend the remainder of my trip in Ireland.
I want to know when Cramulus won the lottery to plan all of these trips, and assumed we all did too.
I love you, man, but this poor American girl is staying where she is until school is over. Unless it's in the 150mi blast radius of Providence (including Manhattan) or in Florida during the Holidays I don't go far.

Of course :) I was thinking mostly about the spags already sort of on the right continent for such a meetup, like the DoD Edinburgh crowds and such.
Maybe we could do cardiff for the lulz
Hey yeah, I hear travelling by temporal rift is getting cheaper anyways.

Sorry dude. I'm just wicked fucking sore about possibly not even being able to see my family for the holidays this year because no one wants to hire a full-time student. I even got told today by an employer that if I dropped a "couple classes" that I'd be worth more on the job market.
Fuck money and the struggle for it.
I'll see the world eventually. I'll be fucking 50, but I'll see it.
