I'm hoping that I will be able to get some Mercs together to join you guys for this parade. I hope to see most of you there.

I'm sure if you make it, Drago, there will be at least 2, possibly 3, Mercs for this one!

Is there any cost?

Unless things have changed since the last time I did it, there shouldn't be, other than what it takes to get yourself down there. The last time I was there it didn't cost to park, either.

I won't be able to walk in this years event. Work won't let me off. But we will still have some custom Mandos running around. Tavrik will be our point man for this event.

Naas Atiniir here, from the Mandalorian Mercs. We've been talking about this event over on the Mercs for a few months, and we saw that you guys were looking for any custom Mandos that could show up. Well, I might be the only Merc that can make it, but I'm fully prepared to make the trip down there and troop this with you guys. I've got transportation arranged, and my armor is ready for this event.

I think just about the only questions I have are where and when are we meeting up at?

I can't wait for this event, and the opportunity to meet some of the local 501st in the area, and represent Mercs well. I hope to hear back from you guys as soon as possible with the information requested. Thanks in advance.

I've run into some transportation issues myself. So even I am not sure if I am going to be able this event. I was really looking forward to running around with other Mercs, too.

Money has become extremely tight now that one of the roommates have moved out and the other got fired from her job. While I do have the car, I can't afford the insurance. I'm not going to drive uninsured (again). It just isn't worth the risk, no matter how fun the parade will be!

So I am working all kinds of crazy overtime just to make ends meet. It doesn't help that she doesn't seem to be too terribly concerned about getting a job. While I work (and stress out), she voicechats online with her friends... must be nice!

Any extra money I am earning isn't going into the things that I would like it to.. like costuming and such.

Sorry for the rant... I was in serious need of venting.
