No all joking aside, it sounds like fun and informative. Wish I could make it.

Went to the Seminar tonight, was a lot of fun. If you're in the area you should defiantley check out the other days. That guy Dick Johnson is hilarious.

I asked everyone who was Bubbles and they all denied it with amazing ability. So either we have some oscar nominated actor in the mix or Bubbles is blowing smoke up my skirt. If I'm wrong Bubbles can give me a wet willie tomorrow and tomorrow only with out me doing anything but screaming like a little boy. Bring it on bubbles.

Just an idea..... maybe Bubbles is Dick Johnson? Apparently that guy is hilarious.
Glad I still have $125 in MY pocket, along with travel and hotel expenses.... I'm sure I missed out on $20 worth.

You come to a point in your life when you really don't care what people think about you, you just care what you think about yourself.

You can't put a price on memories. It was touching, educating and most of all fun. Twenty years from now I won't remember what it cost but I'll remember going. Sounds like someone has sour grapes?

Nah, my grapes are sweet as honey, you should taste the wine it makes... I just have a different set of values on the almighty American dollar, how little of it I do have and how much of it is needed in my life. Now, if I were a show owner, or a savvy performer, it would be plausible for me to use the funds (that would normally pay the much needed bills around here) for such an extravegance, and thereafter WRITE IT OFF as a business expense. My standard earning potential for a weekend needs to be justified to such a financial loss. Schedule coverage, booking dogsitting or housesitters, flying the whole fam out, hotel stay, 3 meals per diem x 3 people, travel expenses, car rental... I'd be looking at spending about a grand in total.... for what? To rub "elbows"? I'm sorry, I said this at the beginning of the thread and I will continue to say it... it's not for me and I personally find this whole thing to be a humongous waste of time, money and resources. Now.... to the creators of this event..... you guys are slick!! 21st century blow-off, except the tent is in another state and part of the entrance fee is spending more money on corrupt airlines and hotels... did the people putting this together at least get a percentage?

Yes you did. I just didn't speak up when you went around asking.

Too bad. You could have had a guilt free wet willie. I was pretty sure I asked everyone but maybe you snuck by?
