Hello Austinites!
Edited on Fri Feb-20-04 10:43 AM by XNASA
Made it in last night. Quite an adventure.

Southwest removed the passenger sitting in front of me from the plane before disbarking from Midway. He was swearing at the other passengers and causing a general nuisance. When the Flight Attendent asked him to behave himself he replied, "F*ck you, I know my rights!!! I paid for my ticket."

So two of Chicago's finest boarded the plane and took him off. Great start.

Got into Austin around midnight and played Texas Hold 'Em until almost 5. I lost.

Sleepy now..................

12. Curra's moved...
...there's the "original" which moved from S. Congress to Oltorf. Now there's one up north on Burnet. It's got more seating, so might be better for us...

13. Speaking of the need for seating...
do you want to drop a note to some of the other Austin DUers or would you like me to?

Once we decide which Curra's anyway.

2. Woohoo! Glad you made it!
I still think we should kidnap you guys and head down to Lockhart for some BBQ.

Or, there's always brunch Sunday mid-morning-ish...;-)

6. Yes!!!!
I'm thinking of heading to Gruene on Sunday afternoon. So starting off my day with a fine brunch would be most advantageous!!! Not to mention excellent.
