You aint kidding Wings. We had a large group of Akron fans near us that we invited over to play Battleshots. They were pretty much joking around about how that game was like their Superbowl. We planned to hit the tailgate about halftime but WOWSIRS that did not go according to plan. I still cant really figure out what happened other than they had a pretty big line. I did learn one thing however (that I remember anyways). I always thought it was a joke that Marge (from the Simpsons) wanted to visit the Zipper Museum in Ohio. Well, they really do have one!!! So thats why they are the Akron Zips.

Arriving in DTW tomorrow around 1 pm. Might be pretty much booked with wedding stuff and family stuff through Sunday, but I should be available early next week. Any free time that opens up before Saturday or after Sunday, I'd love to scope out a place for a good beer.

I don't know if I'll be available at all. I'm working on a project for a client, so I can't do during the day. Wednesday night is booked. And this week I moved my father in-law into rehab and my mother in-law is supposed to move into assisted living tomorrow.

So, IF something does get planned I'll see it fits, but don't try to schedule me in and then screw everyone else up.

We leave on Wednesday, but no worries. It's difficult to make free time when the best time is occupied by planned events. I'll just keep an eye out when I can.

Thanks Phil. Got home at 4:15, figured I'd wait until my wife woke up and went to work and then go to sleep. Mother in-law is all checked and sleeping, at her age (over 90) even a little bladder infection throws her for a loop.
