right, that's this weekend ladies and gentlemen.
i will be taking off from work early friday morning and driving over.curious as to who all out of you i am gonna see.
look for this guy.
or this guy.i dont know my way 'round Atlanta at all, so i am mildly worried about getting there. i hear traffic is hellish. damn.
- frow0
The traffic is hellish and I'm convinced that the street signs rotate when you're not looking. Some diabolical network of city gremlins that live beneath the sidewalks, I'm sure. (grrrr)
- Biofreak0
i was afraid of that.
well, i hope to see you there frow, but if you gots a baby to take care of, then i'll have to give you hard time in person some other day. haha.
anyone else or is it just me going?

beware of the labyrinth of all streets named peachtree.
- kote0
no worries man - just be early.
- Biofreak0
i plan to be about 2 hrs early. just in case....
so are you guys going too?
what is the general feel of these things? is it fairly informal?
i am planning on wearing my everyday attire and getting sloppily drunk at the bar afterwards (and during maybe).
i guess i need to see about getting some extraordinarily detailed directions before i leave.
it seems that DFF's directions link is broken somehow. mapquest, here i come.
- kote0
did you go to the bd4d site man? read the specs - it's free, and come as you are.
I will be the one breakdancing on the bar.
- Biofreak0
yea i got the free part. didnt see where it says come as you are.
as for the breakdancing on the bar thing... AWESOME!
i will be the one with my head on the bar drooling peacfully onto my coat sleeve as dreams of hot naked ladies flood my unconscious mind.sweet.

I am looking forward to slapping many of you around then apologizing and buying drinks for all.
- Biofreak0
sounds like a good idea nirvous!
mm... so how will we know eachother? i mean, i am fairly easy to pick out of a crowd, but maybe we should have big dorky tags (18"x24" panels) that we wear saying something like:
"Hi, My Name is Eric, but you probably know me better as Bio on Newstoday.com. LONG LIVE THE NT, now FEED ME SOME BEER!"
and then on the back panel, it could just say something like:
"EAT ME"right? good idea? bad idea?

ryan, anthony and i are flying out of london on thurs morning. can't wait! i've never been to Atlanta, so i'm hopelessly depending on the DFF boys to keep me from ending up homeless and helpless on the streets of Atlanta. :)
as far as the events, go, they are purely informal and meant to encourage and inspire.
see you homies there.

Good to see so many folks coming from out of town for this! Looks like it's going to be a blast. Be sure and check out our fine city's nightlife too... some spots to check out... Halo (http://www.halolounge.com) for nice loungy downtempo chilled and laid back, MJQ (http://www.mjqconcourse.com) hip hop on Friday nights, whatever you're in to - you'll find it somewhere.
BTW - BD4D crew: are people wearing nametags to this?
- SP™0
I fly out of NYC on Friday morning/afternoon.
I hope the dirt dirty is warmer than up here.
- 1201am0
It'll be warmer, probably around mid-60's.
How many of you are coming from out of town??
- Biofreak0
im coming from marion, mississippi.
i think that is about a 6 hour drive or so. i'll check tonite after i get off of work. . . not that anyone but me really gives a damn how long a drive it is. haha.

Atlanta is a fun city - I think you out-of-towners will have a good time!
Is everyone staying for the weekend?
