If there's a car I can borrow, @primesuspect, I'll have my passport w/ me and I could swing over the border grab an @Ilriyas and then yell at some Canucks and then bring him to HQ.
I cannot even begin to imagine the hassle involved with taking a borrowed car to Canada. You would be searched for sure, and it would be a major headache. I do NOT recommend.
Uh, yeah, no worse than a rental van from a dealership and full of 8 people all from different states.
@BlackHawk and I worked things out. He's coming with me on Tuesday!
Mert answering the border guard's question ("Where are you going today?") with "Canada" was a pretty great way to guarantee a visit to the guard center.

I'll be arriving by car on Friday afternoon around 5. I have an endoscopy and hernia repair that morning so I'll be leaving right after. I'll be departing Sunday and following @GnomeQueen.

@Gargoyle said: @Linc if we can't make one of the events we signed up for in Eventbrite, what's the procedure you want us to follow? I won't make it to the bike tour.
I crossed out my name on the events signup post, and in this post, I hereby indicate to @TroubleBaker I won't make it in time for biking on Thursday morning.
@Tushon myself! I'm having major surgery in August and they want to make sure my stomach and Diaphragm are okay before doing so. I'm getting scoped Friday.

Real talk, got switched to a direct flight from Boston on delta that gets me in at 6:30ish. @Sonorous if you can't that's cool I'll try and secure other transport, unless people are being picked up round then
See you all tomorrow. Guess the east coast weather has KO'd flight control. Lots of cancelled flights tonight.
New plan. Next available flight from Denver to Detroit is effing Thursday. I'm flying to Chicago midway tonight, then a 6am flight to Detroit tomorrow.
I now arrive at DTW at 8:20AM.seriously sorry it's so early, but it's either this, or I show up Thursday
I figure @mertesn will be awake at that time anyways.....

Made it to the hotel.
Can confirm, border crossing into Canada is srsbznz.
I have stories.

I think @fatcat and @Shorty have the best (story about Canada). At least I think I am tagging the correct people.
2009?

Ask a silly question...
Whats your business in Canada today?
"to pick up a friend I met on the internet"
Whats his name?
"uh, Ilriyas."
Sir, pull over there.
I still feel horrible about that.
You should, Illy. You should.
