#2 If we ask nicely, maybe Fred will let us watch the festivities from the ramparts of brooding Castle Rantburg. I've got some extra lawn chairs and a blanket or two.

#3 "H'okay, let's run the checklist..."

Check.

Check.

Check.

"We're ready. May our pilgrims find renewed faith in the Religion of Peace and praise Allah (pbuH). Remember, people, 5 laps and then the pitstop."

#5 I'm wondering how many people get trampled to death during the "stoning of the devil" portion of the proceedings. Is Vegas taking odds? I've got $5 to wager....
