In 15 minutes, I'll be out the door, heading to Atlanta for the ACC Tournament!

Should be a really good tournament, even better if the tarheels go home tomorrow! ;)

Sure hope the Georgia Dome doesn't suck!

Edit: There's also a NASCAR race this weekend. I can't believe they're doing so much. The city's gonna be packed!

eight lanes of interstate and they are all stopped.I fly in about 8-10 times a year in my work.The ride from the airport to my room can take as long as the flight.

Naw, I was just out driving, the roads aren't packed at 9pm ;)

Just watch out for rush hour traffic tomorrow, Friday. It's a biznitch, starts about 3pm, goes till about 7. The downtown connector is packed in both directions.

While in Atlanta, you must stop by the Cheetah Club... For gentleman. Second to none. Expensive, maybe not worth it, but it's an experience. For lunch, try out the Pink Pony. The steak there is supposed to be perty good, and ya can't beat the entertainment.

The NASCAR races are a little south of the city, traffic downtown really isn't effected by them. I have a feeling that the dome will be anti-climatic. Philips Arena is pretty cool (right next door). Traffic leaving after a game at either place is horrible. I've found parking, that's about a 10 minute walk from the stadium, and very easy for me to get out of and on my way home.
