    What if it's cold? Does anyone have propane portable heaters? I don't want to be walking around in my Naughty Halloween costume at a pre-party if it's going to be cold...

    Dirty Tom, Can I put you down for a helper to the 3 Wishlist parties? As of right now 10/27 might just be a unofficial tailgate unless someone steps up to the plate...
