The Syndicate

I'm visible. That's all that matters.

Okay, so I am not sure on what would work best for everyone, so I found these two cruises. They are both for spring 2016. I was thinking either the April 15th date for the 5 day cruise out of Charleston, SC or the April 10th date for the 4 day cruise out of Port Canaveral, FL. Of course, prices will change according to when we all decide to book and what not. But, I figure discussion has to start somewhere. I would love to be able to do this and for LOTS of us to go. I want to meet more of you

I am very jealous that I've missed all of this...

But my wife and I are secretly planning a trip to the East Coast in 2017, and I'm already thinking about how to finally meet some of you.

Is Nauru like Lost island, and it's moved over to Europe?

Just let us know when the time gets close. I am sure we can all find a way to meet up

I think I may have been the one to mention a cruise, but I offered that suggestion in jest.

My wife and I aren't planning any major vacations until 2017 at the earliest but if any of you fine folk make it up to our neck of the woods, you're more than welcome to pop in for a visit.

You may have mentioned it as well, but Epi also mentioned it while we were at lunch with Niju, MM, Mongoose, and Llama this past Saturday. I told Mongoose I would look into it I've done my part, now I need others to comment and help plan.

According to the Almighty School Calendar, my spring break is the last week in March, so I wouldn't be able to do anything big in April. Darned kids and their need for book-learnin'

I just want to gamble. Fuck all y'all.

I think the links I gave had all of March and April's cruise dates. Feel free to discuss when is best for everyone And if you want to post a different cruise, go for it. I was just trying to get the ball rolling.

I am 6 feet tall, but I also did not have my shoes on in that picture, so everyone would appear taller aside from nijuu.

Speaking of meetups. You are all invited to Epi's mafia themed birthday party on the 29th

This too but I am not sure I'd make it there if I started walking now.

Yes lets. It would be great to meet people and celebrate all the things.

I think it should be tagged, I count 10 I recognize but can't put a face to them all.

MP and I expect to make this list of "some" people. We will even travel to the east coast as well to make it happen and of course met some other awesome people too. I have not discussed this with him yet... but he will agree.

Sadly, a cruise is not ideal for Alex, he gets super motion sickness. Like the minute he sets foot in a boat. I have taken a cruise before and most if the time you can't even tell. I have told him this but he has zero desire too risk it.

BR, tag what?

I think she means she would like the wedding picture tagged with who is who. You should be easy for everyone to figure out haha

I think she means daisy should take up a career as a graffiti artist.

I think she means she wants to play Tag and wants Daisy to be "it"

For what it's worth, I get super ridiculous motion sickness with everything. I get sick from tying my shoelaces in the car, or reading too many street signs as a passenger, or even not eating just enough or too much. Hell, I sometimes get motion sickness from folding laundry, because I have a pathetic weak stomach/inner ear. BUT on the one cruise I went on, I never once felt sick and had a fabulous time Just something to think about.

After reading this thread, I'm even more sad that I couldn't make the wedding.

I totally vote for an east coast meet up and approve of DC!!! Or Philly, even.

You don't have to convince me, you have to convince Alex lol.

My Mom was that way, just the sight of a boat made her green.

Next time I am in the states (hopefully later this year) I'm hoping to get to meet up with Rox in DC. I've never been before

Everyone also could just come to London

I should let you know if I ever visit Canada, and likewise if you ever wander down into the states.

When I lived in Kalispell, we were a few hundred miles apart~ that's neighbors in that neck of the woods! If I go back for a visit, i will let you know

Neither have I.

I had no shoelaces to worry about, so you're all good!

Mongoose mentioned that you were planning this to me awhile ago, and I totally forgot. I would totally be down for this as long as I could ensure I'm off work then. For now, consider me in!

You don't have to convince me, you have to convince Alex lol.

I think I could convince him fairly well...

If you get motion sickness, don't get a room at the front of the boat. And...if a cruise is not the best option, we can always just plan to meet up at a specific hotel/beach and and hang out together for a week. I want to go here sometime soon:
http://www.dunesvillage.com/thank-you/popup/65129/

April and May, Sundays-Thursdays are close to half off!

Do you mean to tell me that there are grown men who become physically ill at... motion? Dear me, what's the world coming to?

I'd be fine with almost whatever!

I am skeptical of the cruise, since I get really insane motion sickness, but considering Blooper's testimony, I might be willing to try it.

It's okay. Immediately after I made fun of you, I got injured in four different ways almost simultaneously, so rest assured that karma exists.

Instant karma.

That said, being injured sucks. Glad you got through it.
