How about next Friday? I hear there's a good place to drink in
downtown Raleigh that has a lot of Kulture. :-)

Sorry, Tanner. I can't do Raleigh. While I would love to support Scott's establishment, I simply cannot afford the $150.00 in gasoline and hour-plus drive each way to enjoy some nice beers. People can barely corral me into driving into Carrboro/Chapel Hill to join them for a drink these days.

It may sounds ridiculous to state that it would take $150.00 USD of gasoline to get to Raleigh and back, but I'm living in the dark, shadowy suburbs of Burlington now and Raleigh is like 95 miles away. I *have* to go to Raleigh once a month for work and they are PAYING ME to do so (a very meager payment, I assure you).

Also, I have a unique way of supporting the troops and our national security policy. For each gallon of gas I pump into my Hummer H1 Alpha, I also pour two gallons into the nearby gas station trash can. This helps me never forget what George Bush's friends (the Saudi Arabians) did to us on 9/11.

Yay America!! Support the Crusade!!
