Anyone want to meet up? I was thinking of getting Coleman around 6, take advantage of their sale, and then maybe a little cruise and/or food? There is a good deli right there.

Once a year inside the beltway on a weeknight is enough for me.

I'm sorry but that's just hilariously gay.

You'll prolly just not show up because of you know who anyway....

What did she say about you going down? Did she go down too so you'd have somthing in common?

I'd be down for a Coleman/dinner run. I need some new brake pads too so perfect timing for me.
