based on timing - if you know someone on the BRT, they can take him from there. No official "ownership" of his schedule to my knowledge, just people requesting and coordinating based on who is where when, etc.

Think carefully about this. Freddie, Jr., has spent a pretty carefree, sheltered existence, mostly roaming from one lounge/party/bar/continent to another. The hardest thing he's probably ever had to do is pass out on a table.
These people want to spend their time in CVG volunteering for Habitat for Humanity and building a house. Freddie's probably never swung a hammer in his life. In fact, most hammers are bigger than Freddie.

At this time we are not scheduled to be in town at all between Dan's BRT and the CVG DO. If someone gets him to us in South Florida or Louisville, we can bring him to CVG.

Correlating the lists for the two DO's, there are a couple LAX folks who might be able to do the handoff: hsxagent (definite for BRT) & o2k (highly probably for CVG).
A couple ORD captives might also be able to help: Will Gargoyle cross paths with any CVG'ers between the BRT & CVG? If so maybe iluv2fly can bring Freddie back to Chitown & Gargoyle could pass him on too ... ?
This assumes that Freddie makes it to the BRT. Part of the problem in getting Freddie is that often other people will already have him & want him to attend their DO's.
I'm available for interceptions in MSP, if it comes to that.

If needed, I can pick him up from someone if they're flying thru EWR around the BRT dates and hand him off.

Sadly, in spite of the no child left behind policy of the Bush administration, Freddie Jr. somehow managed to disappear after the Freddie awards last year.
Trust me when I tell you that Freddie was really about this; as he wanted to ride in 1A on the Brooklyn Reality Tour.I expect to be in town for the Freddies, so I'll take possession of the old boy until the BRT. @:-)

I've got a rather extensive itinerary through the US, UK, and Russia starting in early June that I'd love to take Freddie Jr. on. I figured I'd speak up now...

Freddie's flight map has been updated with the US-domestic map that is now available on the site. His flights within the US can now be viewed separately at http://meine.flugstatistik.de/freddiejr.

Took quite the effort to track him down.
I believe Freddie would like to make an appearance at the EDi DO in May. He so misses Sheep
