Title: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Stealth on January 19, 2007, 05:29:04 am
going to be there for the next 8 days...

it's going to be cold as hell (heh).  us Texans aren't used to the cold.  however, i'm renting a Dodge Charger, so that should be cool

if anyone's in eastern pennsylvania, let me know, maybe we can go get a couple of drinks or something.  i'm going to be there on a microsoft training session, and i'm going to be bored as hell week nights :-/

From what I've seen on the Weather Channel, it's just about as cold in your neck of the woods right now as it is in mine. :p

Where exactly are you going to be?  I live around the Philly area myself.

I've been to PA quite a bit.  I hope that car has good suspension...You're gonna need it for PA's notoriously pothole filled roads.  I've seen semi trucks disappear... :nervous:

And they don't really plow the roads either.  That car had better have four wheel drive...

Also, stay out of western PA.  They've had problems with eco-terrorism lately.  (Not to mention that they have over 300 domestic terrorist groups being watched by the Federal government.) 

Other than that, have fun in Penn's Woods!

Lots of advice from Tyrian :D

Nevermind, Stealthy.  Just make sure you into or out of Philly next time :D
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Stealth on January 19, 2007, 03:36:48 pm
well shoot, if i'd known that in advance, i would've made sure to fly into Philly ;)

and i'm staying out of western i think :-/  harrisburg is the furthest north i'm going.

the car's rear wheel drive :(

Well, RWD should still be good for outrunning the terrorists.  A group calling themselves the Earth Liberation Foundation (ELF :lol:) sabotaged the de-icers on a major bridge about a month ago.  Careful on the bridges...

Ugh, rear wheel drive this close to the Midwest in January?

Take it easy on the roads, that's all I can  say.

I like Pennsylvania. I went caving there a while back, and besides sleeping in a puddle a half a foot away from about 13 other men, it was pretty cool.

Oh, watch out for the fog. Assuming there is any this time of year.

my meeting tomorrow got cancelled, so i'm stuck in "York" with nothing to do the. whole. day.

less than 2 hours from philadelphia, but i don't really want to drive 2 hours there, and then 2 hours back.

:-/

Should have talked to me before you book your flight :D

Ah, you poor thing, got 'stuck' up North.  They should have let you know a few days ago so you could hang around in Philly :D
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Stealth on January 20, 2007, 10:18:18 am
hmmm yeah.

bring a couple of your friends... we'll meet for dinner or something.  according to my GPS i'm less than 2 hours from philadelphia...
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/

Post by: Wild Fragaria on January 20, 2007, 11:24:48 am
Ah, how did you know I'm working today?    :nervous:  :D

Yes, I am at work today and I already have my evening planned.  But if you (Stealthy) are in town some time around 2, I can meet you for tea (I don't drink coffee).  How's that?  And perhaps you can give me a number I can call to find out where you are :D

Now remember kids, don't ever meet someone you know from the internet in person, because they will kidnap and rape you. Always. (j/k of course)
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Wild Fragaria on January 20, 2007, 02:21:06 pm
Ahhh... monster!!!!  Rapist!!!  *running away*  Good 'advice' redsniper -- I don't even know his name  :eek2:

Drop me a line if you're still around and wanna have tea tomorrow afternoon.  Same time :D  I've gotta run for the day.  Enjoy your stay in Philly!  (What's your name by the way)

yeah i'm just bored as hell in "YORK", Pennsylvania.

i went to the harley davidson factory, went to the "york mall", still bored as hell.

tomorrow early afternoon i have to leave for the training class facility, ~3.5 hours away, so not sure i could make 2:00 anything, cause i'm going to be on the road.

I live in Baltimore, that's kinda close.
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: ToecrusherHammerjaw on January 20, 2007, 11:04:38 pm
I'm from York (or at least six miles out).  Now do you see why I want to get out?  And by the way, The York Mall can hardly be considered a mall anymore, its just an old busted up collection of little stores.  You would have been much better off going to the Galleria Mall if you had to go to a mall.
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Stealth on January 21, 2007, 08:19:18 am
yeah well that's what it is... it says "York Galleria".  and my motel is like 5 min away from it.  not even.

we have a "Galleria" in Houston too... much better than this mall if i may say so :-/  although it's a lot more high-end, snobbish... with all the rich stores.  we also have an indoor ice-rink right in the middle of the 2 story mall, which is kinda cool.

BLUE LION:  that's cool, cause i flew into Baltimore, and I fly out on Saturday afternoon... so we're going to go get lunch, right?  how far are you from the airport?
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Blue Lion on January 22, 2007, 10:50:37 am
BWI? Not too far.

That's the only airport you could have come in and still considered it Baltimore.
Title: Re: pennsylvania anyone? :-/
Post by: Stealth on January 22, 2007, 12:52:22 pm
yeah BWI;

well i'll be driving to baltimore friday evening.  checking into a hotel, and then just hanging around, cause my flight leaves at 3:45 and i have to turn the car in by 12:00

Sweet.  You nap at the airport from 12 - 3 :D

Now remember kids, don't ever meet someone you know from the internet in person, because they will kidnap and rape you. Always. (j/k of course)

Oh, I'm sure WF would kidnap and rape him.


:p

That sounds very disturbing... :shaking:
