At this time of year, by the time than anybody here takes up on jackal's invitation, it is not unlikely that the temp will have fallen by more than 50 degrees.

Everyone who booked tickets to visit based on my recommendation above--be sure to bring your ice skates.

My 30-degree-incline driveway makes a good luge track...

WOW, just realized there was an ANC meetup thread. I am in ANC most weeks (not the last 2 of 2012) at least mid-week.

Its not legal (and from what I hear very difficult) to have personal use fireworks in Hawaii. I won't miss the cold but launching black powder balls out of tubes is rather fun

I know Mondays and Tuesdays work well for [b]jackal[/], and avoid the conflict of Sunday Night- perhaps the 20th?

Mooses tooth is a great place to start (depending on how busy they are) or we could always get a few to go

No black powder balls on the beach in Maui from where that post about "unfort" was written.

I will look for some tomorrow and if I do not see any right away, I will just turn over and ask the man with the Hawaiian shirt and towel over his arm to bring me another rum and soda.
