Sorry!
They took our technology pretty early this year.
Photos of the MONUMENTAL flight to come!
Do me a favor, pretty people, pretty please?

I think you know (since I’ve been flug-spamming) but we are currently in St. Paul, MN for Red Bull flugtag (tomorrow!).
It would be AWESOME if you wanted to text “team23” to 72855 (rbull) like, say … 15 times or so (the max amount from one mobile device, ha).
It’s for the People’s Choice Award and since we’re out of towners, we don’t have a huge MN following :)
Thank you!!

Countdown to flight: 2 days!
Today …
DR + KMH + BO head north from Chicago.
Team Hale heads north from Omaha.
KL works/trains (for her actual job, not her role as Ginger) in Albany.
Tomorrow? We all converge in St. Paul.
Thank You
Thanks to everyone that came out to Victory Liquors on Friday Night. We had a blast and you guys helped us raise $300! Special thanks to Victory for allowing us to throw the fundraiser.
Hopefully we’ve raised close to enough funds so that we won’t have to hitchhike back to Chicago.
But we can’t say this enough.. THANK YOU. This wouldn’t be possible without all of your...
T-Minus 6 days

We’re about to embark on launch events, fundraisers and interviews in the next week or so and I for one am getting EXCITED!

– Chick on call. Ahhh …
Mandatory Team Conference Call
Um. Everyone sounds male, ancient and with bizarre senses of humor.
Sample quotes in the first 4 minutes of the call:
“Keep your hands where I can see them!”
“I always get your first and last name confused - haha!”
“Glad everyone’s still with us!”
Should we be scared?
World Names Profiler: Hale →
There are two of us with the surname “Hale” participating in Team TPG 2010 (and five attending, completing the set - holler!).
Three, if you count Alan Hale, who is the actor who played the original “Skipper” in Gilligan’s Island.
According to the World Names Profiler, “Alan” is the fifth most popular forename for folks who’s surname is Hale.
