Here's the poop on Loserfest '98: we will be taking Annapolis by storm Saturday and Sunday July 11 and 12. It's near enough to most of us (about 30 miles from DC) that you can join us just for the day and/or dinner on Saturday if the hotel rate is prohibitive or the prospect of spending too much time with your fellow Losers makes you break out in a cold sweat.See the chart below for details on what we plan to do there, how much it will cost (bail, fines and court costs not included) and, most importantly, what you need to do and when you need to do it so we can finalize plans.

Scenic cruise on the Severn on the good ship Rebecca.

The hotel serves a continental thingie in the lobby but we can go to some restaurant somewhere if enough of you want to. Trouble is that most places won't take reservations for brunch. Isn't that the height of arrogance? |
