Hey river-rat. If I am the one who flips this to page f-in 20...........I will shoot myself in the foot. But I wanted to say this.
For all of you going to this who have never been to a convention or a get-together with other cluster-heads, you are in for the treat of your lives. With-in 5 mins, you will feel at home and never want to leave. You will make friends for a ;life-time.
I was going to try to be there, but my son who gives me free airfare is outta town and I can't get a ticket, but I will see most of you in Nashville. Have a great time and bring kleenex. When Y'all get home is the hardest.
Linda Howell. I will be there in spirit.

This will also be my first meeting with other clusterheads. I do have one major issue here though.
No one said this thing was gonna get all blubbery and emotional. I will have none of that thank you. Two ground rules you must respect or I will not show up.
Rule # 1 - I do not hug guys for any reason no matter how moved I may become. I am not a homophobe but was raised to only offer a pat on the back and a firm handshake.
Rule # 2 - I DO hug the ladies, especially if they are of the non bra wearing variaty. Of course, subsection 2a of this rule specifically states that the act of hugging is contingent upon my girlfriends abscence or approval (also transferable to the females mate, other or husband) not to be overidden by age, race or political affiliation.
Rule # 3 - I have a dry sense of humor and most people do not know when to take me seriously.
Looking forward to putting some faces with the names.

So how many other people coming have never met another clusterhead?
I've met 8 so far and all in the last year.

OK, I take it back, I did give DJ a hug when I met him. But c'mon it was DJ and a handshake just didn't seem like enough after all he's done for me.
And yeah Mast, I'll prolly being wearing shades Sunday....heard it was supposed to be pretty sunny.

I'm not much for the guy hug thing either, all the wiskers and stuff kinda freaks me out! The only guy I ever hug is my son,
I'm really getting excited about this, and I never really get to excited about anything, it's comming soooo soon just two more sleeps.
I never really got any replys about the tatoo thing, It's really no problem, I can call the guy and tell him we don't really have enough people, But I really need to know. I'm going to get one for sure but who else is in? this guy will be driving about 40 miles to get to the hotel, I'm pretty sure he is expecting to give several. I did tell him I couldn't promise him anything, but I would hate to have him come all that way to just give a couple of tats.
NORM
MODIFIED........Mast got in just before I did, OK so there's TWO!

Hey Ramon. Did you ever come up with a cool drawing for a tat. I would still like to get one, but not sure about just the O.U.C.H. logo.
Don't worry, I don't usually hug the guys either. Unless maybe I'm falling down drunk.
I won't be getting drunk though. Still in cycle and hit everyday so I may be coming and going alot during this event. I'm sure you all won't mind. I'll just disappear for awhile at times. Seems I'm pretty good at doing that anyways.
I don't having high speed internet. Sure is taking longer to post with all these pages. LOL

Hey River Rat, Lee, Norm. Whoever you are ?
Can you just call the tattoo guy, then wait to comfirm until Friday night when everyone is there. That way he'll have an accurate count and know what to expect.
I'm actually still undicided at this point because I don't know what I want. Will he have alot of drawings to choose from with him when he comes ?

Cerebus,
Can you draw my a psychadelic mushroom with a little green frog peeking over the top??
That's what I want.
River, seems the tats we want might take a while...might be worth his while to come.
Ya think?

HEY BLUE, I'm not sure what he will have with him, there's a couple of thing I know, 1- I've seen his work and it's good, 2- he's safe and uses new needles and autoclave sterilization.
This is what his ad in the yellow pages says:
TNT TATTOOING & BODY PIERCING
AUTOCLAVE STERILIZATION
1000'S OF DESIGNS
SPECIALIZING IN FREE HAND & COVER UPS
MOBILE UNIT AVAILABLE FOR PARTIES
309-852-3315
ACCEPTING VISA & MASTERCARD
109 W. 2ND ST. KEWANEE
Feel free to give him a buzz, I know that he has the O.U.C.H. logo and he has a trailer that he takes to all the outdoor events around this area, his trailer is loaded with lots of samples. OOP"S GOTTA GO!

Michelle,
I CAN and WILL do that shroom/frog thing you asked me about. I'll get to work on it today fer ya.
Blue... I did actually come up with a great tattoo with the ouch logo AND one without, Not sure I'll have the available cash to spend to get it done, but yeah I have several "flash" drawings to choose from for my design, but , not many. (drawing supplies will be in tote)
I've met Clusterheads before (White Sox game early this past year) But Never SOOOO many, and not in a weekend party scenario this oughta be a religous experience for me.
Um..........no Photos please I don't want to break any expensive photographic equipment.
