The Ultimate Peilican Get Together Ever!

Maybe it's the multiple Bloody Ceasars kicking in but wouldn't it be a sreaming hoot if we were all to plan one giant meet? I'm talk'n epic! Here is the thing, it would have to be planned many months in advance, in a location where most all can get to rather inexpensively.

What would be the drawbacks and pitfalls as you guys see them?

It would blow my cover. I'm actually a liberal lesbian pretending to be a male, gun toting member of the religious right.

Vegas is actually a good choice. It should be cheap for everyone to arrange a trip there. The casinos are always wanting to draw in suckers like us.

It would be even better if Pelican approached one of the casinos and sponsored an event there, with such a large group, we could get some phenomenal rates!

Vegas or Lawrence... With enough notice, I could go anywhere. I need like, 4 months to plan though.

Can I be in charge of designing T-Shirts? Can we use the PP logo?
