    So I took the day off and was planning on going but now the wife's father is coming home for RR from Iraq that day. How can I tell my wife to F off and that this is more important then her father coming home from Iraq :confused:

    So yeah I think I am going to have to miss out on this one :mad: Have some beers for me.

    I'm not taking the R6 there. As a matter of fact, I'm desperately trying to shave 3 minutes off of Charley's schoolbus pickup so I can catch the 12:22 Rt100 as opposed to the 12:42. If I can catch the 12:22, I could make it to the Convention Center by 1:20. If I can't, I will get there only 20 minutes or so before our first pick. The good news is that the wife is taking a half day from work, and will meet the schoolbus, freeing me up for all the revelry afterwards. Well, most of it anyway...:eek::cool:

    I suck. I'm sorry. Any way you can ask the bus driver to come a few minutes earlier that day? our gal is a real doll. she'd do it, so maybe yours would too?

    I asked Mr. Joe this afternoon, but he will not be able to accomodate me. Sucks, but it is what it is. If he shows up 2 minutes early, I might be able to scamper over to the train and have just enough time to make it. The R6 is another option, but the trolley is cheaper and easier.

    That's a big negatory. If I could, I would be at the pub nice and early with everyone else to celebrate. I'm just glad I have the evening window. There's a chance my wife could get home early enough to take care of it, but there's also a chance that England could be scared about a friendly in Wembley against Red Bull New York.

    The only chance I have is if someone is driving to the event from KoP and leaving around 12:30...

    Corey, are you planning to take the train from Ambler? I might just meet you guys there in the AM and take the train as opposed to driving all the way into the city from Reading fighting rush hour traffic.

    THIS. :cool:

    For some reason, I kept thinking this thing was on a day I couldn't make it. But now I think I can!

    I have to be at work in Pottstown at about 5, but I might don my snazzy new Authentic Union Jersey (thanks mom-in-law!) and hop on the R6 in Conshohocken in the morning and come to McGillans. My Union-partner-in-crime (my brother) likely won't be able to come (stupid Medical school), so I might be flying solo. But I'm sure at least a few of you are friendly folks.

    Anyone else on the R6? If so, which one are you catching?

    Yep, I'm out (shocker, I know) ... I had hoped this job would be full-time with bennies by now, and could afford to take a (paid) day off. But it's not, and I don't know when/if it will ever come to that. And with the office closed all those lost days around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, I'm out over a week's pay already and can't really afford to miss out on another 8 hours.

    :(

    As an aside, anyone know of any architecture firms in Center City that are hiring? :eek:
