Gahhhh! My timing could not have been worse. Reality has started to set in, and my wife's 8th month of pregnancy will most likely prevent me/us from attending.
The fantasy was good while it lasted.

The calendar is marked. Failing death or dismemberment, I'll be there. Whether I'll fly or drive is up in the air... depends if Jets Go rises from the ashes again and drives down Air Canada's prices again.

Streaming webcam video?
Oh i can just see the fun in that.
Peter or Spiffnme will be sitting at home watching a webcam feed while the rest of us use the Axiom computers to send out new orders at random.
"Hey spiff, look at this. We just accessed your personal purchase info on file and we're ordering you a whole new set of 6-M80s and 4-EP600s and 2000 feet of cable. We're ordering Peter 101 pairs of FMBs. The shipping date says tomorrow."

Bren, maybe we can get to meet in Ontario since our Winnipeg attempts haven't followed through.
Wouldn't that be ironic? Travelling 2000 km to meet someone 20 minutes away locally.

I'm not carrying my M3s that far!
Seriously though... looks like I'll be flying once I got the reminder that it's a 20 hour drive, I have trouble sitting through a movie! Maybe grabbing the same flight and sharing a car rental would make some sense, though!

So...can I come? Im around 2 hrs from Toronto, and I guarantee a drunk picnic without a game of washerbox is simply ... a drunk picnic...without washerbox.
In case anyone is wondering - washerbox is THE game to play while hammered and in low light conditions.

Adam, I assume that this is the game that some refer to as washer toss? If I make it up, I'll bring my boxes!!

Redneck horseshoes? 
Here is a site selling a commercially mfg game. Normally though, most people build their own boxes.

There are tons of variations. For example, we use 6 washers each instead of the 2 shown at that site.
