Festering Festers-

Insight from Control Tower - we are dug in and hunkered down, the //Fest must go on.  We've done scorching sun / humidity, dust, tornado warning, picture perfection...  was kinda hoping to offer something different here alas we were unable to make it snow in August.

DO KNOW THAT ***we'll be there***, and are currently in midst of sprinkling dried up pieces of clogged D2 drain nipples and bits 'o urS ruptured boost hoses around an old 4kq steering wheel in the dust on the ground, and trying to discern our Tea Leaf Read on the threat of Audigod Weatherwrath.

If anything, we will aim to move the gate open and raffle times forward some if we are able, to pre-empt any potential weather intrusion.  As you may know, typical daze events will go something like:

-        9:00 gate opens
-        12-1:00 lunch served (1st round)
-        2-4:00 (range) raffle
-        dusk theater...  decision made live in situ

We'll tinker w/ that rough format as the day demands.

Latest weather 'forecasts' (if there is such a reliable thing) seem to show 50% rain Sat as day wears on, and hurricane type weather more toward Sun morning.  Never know.  //SFest 2009 had worse forecast believe it or not, tornadoes and what not.  We had near record turnout and persevered, regardless.

//Festivus Hurricanimus Schmestivus...  bring yer rain gear and be ready to cowboy up.  Don't forget yer Mancard, you'll prob need it.

We look forward to having you all - be ready, beware.

-Paul and the relentless //SFest Staff
