Crap! I'm not flying in until the 1st, Hallowe'en is a deal deal around our house.

You SO deserve to be on this flight, too.
23rd-Sep-2008 06:27 pm (UTC)
How did you pull this one off? and more importantly have you identified targets for plunder?
23rd-Sep-2008 06:32 pm (UTC)
I tell you swinging this was not easy, but I did, dammit it! 'Cuase I'm The God Damned Captain!

* cough *


...Took me a couple months of negotiations...
23rd-Sep-2008 06:28 pm (UTC)
I don't suppose you know how much tickets will cost...
23rd-Sep-2008 06:32 pm (UTC)
I do. Email me: robert@abneypark.com
23rd-Sep-2008 06:38 pm (UTC)
You're an evil man to tempt me so. I had to email you from my work account, so now you know my super secret identity.
23rd-Sep-2008 06:36 pm (UTC)
Man, I was a jerk yesterday, wasn't I??
I guess if you keep making offers like this I gotta be a little nicer, eh?? ;)
Sorry, again, though. :`(
23rd-Sep-2008 06:36 pm (UTC)
Damn. I'll be working and I'm already taking time off earlier in the month for my birthday. Sad.
23rd-Sep-2008 06:48 pm (UTC)
Aw man! xD
Why am I in college in Kansas!!?
23rd-Sep-2008 06:52 pm (UTC)
That is un-fucking believable.

Care to fly eastward to pick me up?
23rd-Sep-2008 07:05 pm (UTC)
Damn, but I wish I could afford this! It really sounds wonderful.

Oh well. At least I'll get to see y'all at the convention. :)
23rd-Sep-2008 07:20 pm (UTC)
I would love to do this, but unfortunately my schedule will not permit it.
23rd-Sep-2008 07:22 pm (UTC)
O_O

WHYYYYYYY am I broke and in Georgia? No fair.

But wow, this is awesome. I've been keeping up with the news on bringing airships back, and I think it's just great. You guys better take lots of pictures and have a blast; so we can look at them and experience it vicariously.

...or you could just hijack the ship and come pick us up for a joint venture of pirating.
23rd-Sep-2008 07:38 pm (UTC)
ssssh!

*looks around* Who heard that!??
23rd-Sep-2008 08:52 pm (UTC)
Oh crap. Um, just kidding everyone! Ha; those steampunks do like to kid, don't they! ...

:/
24th-Sep-2008 02:06 am (UTC)
But I was hoping for the same thing! *pokes the Cap'n while she's at it!*
24th-Sep-2008 08:57 pm (UTC) - !!
O SNAP.

I HEARD THAT!

Well...if that's the case, best let Jimi wet his beak...
24th-Sep-2008 01:18 am (UTC) - Swing thru Texas on your way?
To pick up the broke "Austinite" Steampunks that had soooo much fun with you guys at DragonCon???

(Come on... we'll bring more bass-ass Steampunk fashion with us too... and the "APPLE PIE!"


:~)

Can't argue with more free apple pie...
23rd-Sep-2008 07:29 pm (UTC)
My oh my.

Not sure how you pulled that one off. Email incoming.
23rd-Sep-2008 07:45 pm (UTC)
HOw!? I'm the God Damned CAPTAIN! That's how!
23rd-Sep-2008 09:27 pm (UTC)
!
23rd-Sep-2008 09:31 pm (UTC)
Wull, Captain Robert I mean...not the captain of THIS airship...yet...
24th-Sep-2008 01:19 am (UTC) - Sir, you rawk!
That is possibly one of the coolest of concepts I've ever seen. Ye Gods & Airships... I *wish* I was in California!


Congrats, Captain Robert!
23rd-Sep-2008 07:31 pm (UTC)
Damn, I wish I could be there for that. Good luck!
23rd-Sep-2008 09:51 pm (UTC)
Oh, man. This is not a time to be on my side of the Pacific. Have a great flight, Captain!
23rd-Sep-2008 10:42 pm (UTC)
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, if only I had money and lived anywhere close to CA. *sobs* Good sailing, Cap'n!
23rd-Sep-2008 10:45 pm (UTC)
OK, so the flight *starts* in the Bay Area, but it ends up in Atlanta, Georgia, right? We have a convenient small airfield right down the street...
23rd-Sep-2008 11:04 pm (UTC)
:shakes fist at the fact that she's on the east coast:

I'm making my last trip out west for the year at the end of THIS month :weeps:

:expects lots of photos and updates from this event:

24th-Sep-2008 01:33 am (UTC)
wow, sounds really neat and most likely out of my price range.. but still very neat!!!
25th-Sep-2008 03:55 pm (UTC)
Boy, I sure do love maiden voyages on extremely hyped crafts! They always end interestingly.

Oh, hey, it's you! I chatted with you a bunch at Dragon*con. All I can actually recall of conversation at this point is talking about Creepy Camera Guy with Brute Force.
25th-Sep-2008 04:55 pm (UTC)
Welcome Outlander!

How you been?
25th-Sep-2008 05:00 pm (UTC)
Oh yeah, or I could've just said Outlander.

Not too shabby, and yourself? Any plans on coming back to Atlanta before the next D*Con?
25th-Sep-2008 05:02 pm (UTC)
not currently, but we are playing Florida...um...
25th-Sep-2008 05:05 pm (UTC)
Heh, close but no cigar. I'll tell some of my non-steampunk FL friends to go anyways.
