Great initiative! Thanks for doing this.

If you don't mind, I am going to change the name of one of your items, so its intention is clearer, and add one of my own:

It looks like I am at least somewhat organizing the Red Rocks tour (I guess that happened by accident, but I don't mind); and the Skydiving thing (which was much more intentional).

yes, of course, meeting at the bar is fun... but anybody want to go to The Atomic Testing Museum? www (dot) atomictestingmuseum (dot) org .... I'm sure it will be totally 50's atomic destruction fun!

I was there a few years ago. Some parts are "totally 50's atomic destruction fun", and others are fun and informative for other reasons.

It is a pretty good museum. Make time to sit in the theatre where they reproduce the experience of seeing a test - it's quite impressive.

xinit · 5th June 2011, 06:27 AM

I had the skydiving on my list here... not sure how it didn't make it into the grid.

I corrected one of the links (Red Rocks Tour) which I think was pointing to the wrong thread. (The correct one is the one with the high school mascots and pony remarks.

Okay, a bit of a reorganization by day

SkepticScott · 21st June 2011, 12:14 PM

I didn't want to repost the table with just one change, so for the next person to edit it: Mac King's show is at Harrah’s.

xinit · 21st June 2011, 12:22 PM

I might have to make a proper calendar for this and print it off for the forum table minders.

If anyone is meeting to share trasportation for offsite events and has a place to meetup / contact person that would be handy too.

AdMan · 21st June 2011, 12:26 PM

A couple of other corrections:

I believe the Pre-Penn & Teller Indian Food is on Wednesday rather than Sunday.

Oh, so you're going on Sunday too? Because in the official Penn & Teller Road Trip Table^TM you don't have a smiley for that day.

I may be up for dinner at the Rio that day too, unless the MDC event looks more promising/entertaining than last year.

Perhaps some of that equipment could be used in the dig at Red Rocks.

I was just coming here to post about this. My Dad forwarded this link:

http://www.boingboing.net/2011/06/17...-moving-t.html

Quote:

The 10-employee park has five pieces of machinery, including a pair of Caterpillar D5 track-type bulldozers and three Caterpillar 315CL hydraulic excavators. Dig This sells three-hour packages that consist of a 30-minute safety and operation orientation followed by two hours of maneuvering either a bulldozer or excavator.  

Guests can either dig a trench up to 10 ft deep or build an earthen mound; there are also skill tests like picking and moving 2,000-lb tires or scooping basketballs from atop safety cones.  

 Packages are priced at $400, which reflects equipment maintenance and insurance costs. Patrons 14 and older can play in the dirt.  

If I win big at poker, I'm totally doing this! I've said for years that this would be a good idea for a business.

I think it's pretty amaz!ng that there are so many extracurricular activities happening.

And so many tables!

I'm not organizing or attending the Tuesday dinner (getting in too late), but I've added a link to help out. Oh, and I believe Mac King is confirmed for 3pm Wednesday.

I don't know if the event is sold out yet, but I'll have an unused ticket for Satiristas on Friday night. Let me know if interested.

I may be up for dinner at the Rio that day too, unless the MDC event looks more promising/entertaining than last year.

My Dad forwarded this link: http://www.boingboing.net/2011/06/17...-moving-t.html Quote: The 10-employee park has five pieces of machinery, including a pair of Caterpillar D5 track-type bulldozers and three Caterpillar 315CL hydraulic excavators. Dig This sells three-hour packages that consist of a 30-minute safety and operation orientation followed by two hours of maneuvering either a bulldozer or excavator.   Guests can either dig a trench up to 10 ft deep or build an earthen mound; there are also skill tests like picking and moving 2,000-lb tires or scooping basketballs from atop safety cones.    Packages are priced at $400, which reflects equipment maintenance and insurance costs. Patrons 14 and older can play in the dirt.   If I win big at poker, I'm totally doing this! I've said for years that this would be a good idea for a business.
