How much of a drive is it to Minneapolis?
Six or eight hours.
And Sumi nails it, though there are plenty of things that are, ahem, uniquely Milwaukee.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Six or eight hours.
From Madison, about six hours. Pretty straight shot on I-94. Also, a very pretty drive.
I didn't know they had a boat tour of microbreweries! That's one thing I may have to check out with some friends, or my brother. I do know that the Third Street Pier, one of my favorite restaurants, has dinner cruises on the river. Could probably get a pretty good discount for a group outing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
P-Moon, have you tried the convention bureau? In my Seattle search they got me quotes well below any other listings I found.
I'd suggest everyone cobbling together info to contact them. HUGELY helpful. Heck, they could flat out answer "what is a cheap weekend without much going on?" and questions like that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I've been leaving messages for the women who originally emailed me for a month now, with no response.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Does he drink Coke or Pepsi? Or something else entirely?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
In point of actual fact, Coke, but everyone else's answers are much more entertaining.

Hmm, I would have guessed he preferred a herring wallbanger.
