Apparently I had to be invited to this thread by Ted. Sorry, I haven't been keeping up with the happenings in Joisey.

Y'all need to move closer to me. To play pins around here, I've got to buy them, talk my parents into buying them, or go to the pin shop and play the ones there on free play until I start feeling weird about taking up their time since I can't afford the non-fire-destroyed ones. I don't even drink, but I'd love to hang out with you all.

BTW... I already miss my party thread.

I appreciate the thought, but I have a super busy weekend full of very exciting things like mowing the yard, putting out mulch, dusting, and cooking for my family on Monday. But I will be getting the Twin Win moved to my house either tomorrow or Monday though, so at least there's some pinball involved. (I'm also working on a mini tournament for my parents and sister on Monday, possibly.)

You all have a ton of fun, play a bunch of pinball, and eat some good food for me. I fully expect pictures of Ted with every single person and pinball machine there, and probably a celebrity or two.

Just for fun I looked up a flight, and it is $651 roundtrip. So, looks like you'd come up short anyway. Unless you were just paying for 1 way and planning on keeping me. (But that is called "kidnapping," my dear children, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies.)

Totally jealous of all the cool pins. Glad you all had tons of fun. I have been wanting to get back to NYC in June for our 10th anniversary, but between work and sick dogs it isnt going to happen. If/when I do get there, I may have to jump over to Jersey and say hi.
