    I don't know all the lingo. What does hijacking a thread entail exactly?

    A thread of discussion is created when someone decides they have something important to share with the community that is new and hasn't already been discussed. They find a section of the forum that relates to their topic, such as Special Events, where 'Rachel's New Year Eve's Party in Farmington' should have been placed. They give their new thread a meaningful title and then the members of the community discuss various issues to related to the thread.

    When someone wants to talk about something else, they should start a new thread. If someone starts talking about something completely unrelated to the initial topic, they have 'hijacked' or taken over the thread of conversation , which hurts their comments

    usually $50 to preregister. $60 if you miss the deadline.

    their site isn't up for this year yet, so it's hard to say. but it's been $50 for the past two years.

    and i'm going.

    i was mostly thinking that if i were to fall asleep on someone's shoulder during the ride up, i'd prefer it belonged to a girl.

    Also true... and the reverse is true... if someone is going to fall asleep on MY shoulder, I would prefer it be a girl.

    So about the start of August, I get a paid floating holiday which I have to use this year (especially if I end up working somewhere else). The next question is what sort of deals I can get on tickets from Austin to Seattle.

    I think it makes more sense to take the Monday off than the Friday, but this is all speculation if I can't find reasonable tickets.

    try www.sidestep.com... it's spiffy... the normal southwest site has pretty good deals as well... and there is always Ding!....

    Seattle, Denver, or SLC (red rock hot club!)???

    Decisions, decisions...

    hey guys Im not sure we will be able to stay at my house any more I really want to but my mom just found out she has some sort of really bad stress disorder the DR. just put her on all sorts of meds. so I was talking to my dad and he wasnt sure it would be a good idea having guests in the house because my mom is a neat freak and cleans even more when people are coming over. but she might be better by then so who knows.
