In a perfect world I'd spit one out for you right now...I just don't know when I will have enough access to my laptop to do something half decent. 90% of my posts on here are done from work as it is these days. :::sigh:::

I think the site looks fine...

Speaking of sites however I have to admit though the more I look at it the more I miss DSR 2.0 though.

DSR.com still needs work -- once done I think it will grow on you.

Chris, any way you'll be able to go this year?

I'd really like to. I was scoping out flights last night. AirTran had $260 round trip packages, decent price. I'd leave Philly at like 7:00am, have a slight layover in Atlanta, then get to Phoenix by 10:30am on Friday. Then I'd leave sunday morning and get back in philly by 5 (that's with another slight layover in Atlanta). I'll know more about my "chances" of going once we have a solidified weekend, hotel arrangements (cause that'll cost a good penny too), etc.

There are a few factors playing into this for me, cost being a big one. Our family is going to Disney World for a week in April, effectively taking 7 of my paid leave days away. Then my wife's 30th birthday is in June and we'll probably do a little bit of a pricey get away for that (and tack off another one of my paid leave days, I'm thinking a 3 day weekend getaway of some sort for her). I'm also leaving the fam for a weekend at the end of May to visit my best friend of 25 years in West Virginia (and I'm sure you know the guilt, whether it be real or perceived, that goes along with leaving the wife and toddler at home for the weekend).

I'd really like to go, I'll be a little heartbroken if I can't make it. Let's see how things play out. I'm like a kickoff return receiver, I just caught the ball on the 10 yard line and I'm waiting to get some big blocks up ahead to pave my way to the end zone.
