    That would indeed be an interesting conversation. Especially since that might indeed be our path in a few years - Moving from Reston to Burlington or Oakville or somewhere along the western shore. Are you American or Candian?

    Now that just sucks Robert. How am I going to be able to feel the buttery softness and bask in the glory of the saffron leather kilt you were going to bring to tempt me? (Sorry Grant, but I'm NOT going to give you a kilt check.)

    Thanks for the link Glen. They have vacancies and decent rates.

    What say we plan for Thursday the 27th? Ron thinks that would be better so we don't have to travel on Boxing Day. (Does that mean that everyone in Canada (and the UK) is out tossing boxes on the motorways?

    I'm really looking forward to this. Hope as many as possible can attend.

    To all you 'Mericans Boxing Day is a time honoured tradition. That of boxing up all the crap you got and taking it back to the store to get something you'd really like or need. Having said that all presents head north or across the pond please include the receipt!

    Would you like for me to wear my buttery soft Leather RKilt or would like to don mine for an evening (W36", L21")?

    Be cool for you to move to Burloak but house prices are rising. And to think I'm considering moving to VA to be closer to my Sissy ...

    We live in greater Washington DC. TELL me about housing prices. Our place has doubled since we bought it six years ago. It would really not be an issue at all if you people had not so irresponsibly allowed the Canadian Dollor to go above the US dollar on the currency markets. Now we'll have to watch the market. Toronto real estate has been out of control for longer than ours has.

    If all agree, then that is the plan. We'll hop in the car around lunch time on the 27th and drive over to Hamilton. Should be plenty of time to check in, mess around and get to a kilt night.

    Or, we could just go to London and hope that everyone meets in Hamilton and drives over.

    Yikes, London is still an almost two hours away from Burlington then include an hour for the likes of Wompet and McMurdo. Then again we could all get rooms and bring London to it's knees.

    Anyway to Business:

    AGENDA

    1. Welcome both House Chairmen Starbkjrus & McMurdo.
    2. Plot taking over XMarks after a less than stellar showing in the Arctic.
    3. Find somebody other than Grant for the above mentioned cockup.

    Canadian. I lived in Virginia when I was working for the big X in Leesburg.
