H5 to Boudicca from me as well.

Bravery and courage....give me a freaking break.  Lounging around a hotel room?  As for kith and kin, if their spouses were the shrill, nagging sort, and their kids are the whiney petulant sort, why then it's a REAL vacation!  Break out the champagne and send over the broads. 

I'm just gonna HI5 everyone in this thread for their bravery and courage in posting.   :-)

Laid up in a hotel room ordering room service and watching the pr0n channels.

Right up there with the Continental Army at Valley Forge and the 101st Airborne at Bastogne.

I get a lump in my throat just thinking about it - their forlorn faces pressed against the window, looking out across the vast wasteland of the Marriott parking lot, popping another complimentary mint into their mouth as they wonder if they'll ever see kith and kin again...

*sob*

Except when the Wisconsin Senate Minority Leader said 'Nuts!' he was demanding snacks from room service.

Tangentially related--someone posted this at Moonbattery:

Got something real fun for you guys. You can sneak on to the IRC chat site for "OpWisconsin", where various plans are being laid realtime against Evil Tea Partiers, right here, right now:

http://irc.lc/Anonops/opwisconsin

Put in your own nickname. Then eavesdrop as they chat their little schemes to each other. I am trying to figure out something to say myself. I've never seen an IRC chat site before.

I dug this up on Democratic Underground and it apparently is ground zero for coordinating 'actions'. Check the links up top for faxes they are trying to send to news organizations.

Why don't we all decide on a time to meet up in this chat and discuss Wisconsin? We can maybe send the link to people we know at FR?

I have to give credit to Sgt. Vorpal Bunneh for putting the idea in my head.  He posted the YouTube of it earlier.
