It's that time of year again... MediaWest*Con!

[wraithfodder]

Yup, it's 100 and some odd days till MediaWest*Con happens, and it's up to the 35th year. Wow... programming is open for suggestions now. The Yahoo group is at https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/mwcprogram/info and of course, the main site is at http://www.mediawestcon.org/

And for the first time in ages, I'm flying (after last year's Amtrak delays and lack of sleep, I doubt I'll ever take it out to Michigan again!). So, question - what kind of food can you take in your carryon luggage? I'm determined to do carry-on (those who know me, stop laughing hystericall). Can I bring from home a bag of unopened imitation Bailey's cream center chocolates? I know they confiscate any liquids and force you to buy overpriced water, but what about candies like that in carry-on?

Thanks!

Oh, flying can be SO much better than the train for long journeys! Damtrak and I have had our share of problems since the 90's. At least we have a spiffy, new train station in STL once again - I just wish if one wanted to do a longer cross country journey, one wouldn't have to go up to Chicago or KC to start their trip.

As Vecturist said, no problems with snacks, as long as they are easily identifiable as snacks.

We just need puddle jumpers, gosh darn it! *lol*

I see that your region is going to get hammered with a lot of snow. I wish you luck and hope that the trees are not going to take out your power again.

Hadn't heard the term Damtrak but after last year, I swore I wouldn't take it that distance again, so although it will cost a bit more, I'm flying.

Oh man, I'd kill for a puddle jumper. The commute would be so much nicer. Oh wait, I'd use it to ferry people around and get rich! ;)

Yup, more snow. Sigh. More shoveling. This time though may be snow and ice.I'm hoping the ice avoids us. Don't want trees down or power out. Shudder.
