That's a Plus1-like ratio.

Wait?! -- that you have no life -- or that we all need 'a life'! LOL!:D

I am craving the sundae that I had in BF on the way to HKG - vanilla ice cream with port wine and berry sauce. MMMMMM!

This wouldn't be very hard to generate in my kitchen. Of course, I couldn't wash dishes afterward.

Indeed it was. The Whataburger van adventure was some of the most fun I've had in recent times.

I think Plus1 can count the number of times he has strayed from The Box on fingers and toes.

A cursory search of my hopelessly incomplete FM reveals these extinct lines:

Is the CO DO always at the same time of the year? I appreciate that it is an 'annual' event!:p

I wasn't off by much - he's only posted 32 times outside The Box total.

The last DO was most likely the last, though we will continue to have regional events.

'Tis a pity that I only joined FT in March -- had I explored it way back when my brother first told me about it -- I would've been a PWP member for many years now (& spent a lot of my life on the B:rolleyes:X!:rolleyes:):D:rolleyes:

Thank you. :D

I am indeed happy that my twisted sense of humor and complete lack of tolerance for stupidity bring joy to others.

It used to be on about an 18-month cycle, IIRC. Larry said that Do IV would be the last big IAH Do. He was saddened that there was a need to turn people away. While I totally see his point, I was much more saddened by the fact that there were IAH locals who no-showed. Any CO Do in the future, assuming Jeff continues doing them, are going to be more regionalized - smaller scale at the other hubs.

As am I - the problem is what happens to the dishwater that can't drain ...

I would be willing to pay my freight for industry-sponsored events like CO Do IV but alas.
