You have no idea how exciting it is for an old married guy to think that he might, MIGHT, for one brief, shining moment, be some runner chica's harmless eye candy. :)

I assume you will be hitting the Great Dane...

I'll be there for sure Sat Evening until Monday, and I think The Big Cheese is coming with. (As well as some Triscoopers). Let us know via the blog where you guys plan on cheering on Sunday and we'll see if we can all meet up.

I'm soooo ready for that call!

I can't make it MadTown. I feel so left out...
FYI tons of food around downtown. The Great Dane is always good for beer. And there's a diner that the serves porn with your breakfast, er maybe it's the other way around.
