Missing my Buffett fix....help!
While I still consider myself a PH, I haven't been to a show in nearly 3 years. I'm up to 53-55 (I've actually lost track) shows now but my frequency of attendance has definitely gone down with the arrival of little ones.
I also moved from Chicago to Charleston, SC, so while I'm definitely living a more Buffett-like lifestyle, I'm not getting to see him as much.
Maybe I'm just crying in my margarita and need some fellow PHs to commiserate with.......
Maybe I just need to pick a couple dates and say "I'm going" and not let anything get in the way.

Roll with the punches
Play all of his hunches
Make the best of whatever came his way
What he lacked in ambition
He made up with intuition
Plowing straight ahead come what may

Re: Missing my Buffett fix....help!
Your latitude has made a vast improvement! My daughter lives in Charleston for 11 years (Mt. Pleasant) and I will be moving there next year. And.....I will be in Charleston for most of the summer. JetBlue can be a great friend! 
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

Okay.... from a guy who didn't make a show for three years and was feeling much the same way.....
PICK A SHOW AND MAKE IT HAPPEN!
We're finally gonna see JB play again this summer, and I can't even explain how much I'm looking forward to it. My plan from here on out is to never go another year without a show. Yeah, it's expensive and it takes time, but (to me) it's all worth it.

Re: Missing my Buffett fix....help!
My brother lives in DC and we've attended around 20 JB shows together. He just sent me a text "Hey, what about coming to Bristow for the 6/20 show"
I just spoke to the wife about the idea and it sounds like there's some definite interest. Need to figure out what to do with the two kids!
So, after 3 years, might make it happen with a road trip from Charleston to VA!

I don't care much for Sparty either, but this is an incredibly rude response to someone who's just trying to offer a solution to your ridiculous problem.bonefish wrote:MSU sucks.msu#1 wrote:You can get real cheap airfare from myrtle beach to Detroit right now.

Re: Missing my Buffett fix....help!
Made it to Bristow VA for the June 20th show. While that venue totally sucks, it was still a good time.
