I need to make sure I'm getting an accurate head count. The only one who mentioned bringing a spouse or guest is Powerpig. Anyone else? I want to make sure there's enough food to satisfy all.

Speaking of swarming locusts, how about the Mrs. and 4 kids?

Actually it's still too far out to firm up anything. If the scheduling works out, the state of the TD will be the determining factor of what will be driven and who might be along for the ride. I'm sure most of you have never seen a more unremarkable '00 Honda Odyssey. I may stick the kids with my mother for the night and bring the Mrs. along even though her interest in old Benzes is pretty much limited to SL's. After that she just gets that dazed look on her face.

I love kids and would be happy to meet your whole family. Since my oldest is less than 3, the interesting things for kids to do are limited to that age bracket so far.

There's plenty of yard to run in and I have an X-Box 360 hooked up to a 50" widescreen HD TV with a couple G rated games.

I'd be disappointed not to see your wagon in person, but as I said before, the people behind the cars/avatars that I talk with almost everyday are more important.

I haven't even played with one of those in the store yet.

I don't get out very often without my kids and I can't take my attention off them in public long enough to test drive gaming systems or new games. I actually haven't even played video games on my X-Box in ages. I use it mostly to download HD movies and as a DVD player.
