    2007-2008 USFA National Schedule

    Wow! It's up! Places need to be filled in for many NACs, but this is an incredible start. Good job, guys! (Now if you don't mind filling in the days when events will be held in a timely manner...)

    Yes, things really do sem to be improving, albeit incrementally.

    I am sure we have the recall effort to thank for it.

    Not sure I care for the repeat venues, though. Richmond was a bit of a nightmare trip this year and I am not sure I want to test the fates again...
    Use the Shift key, people! Keyboard manufacturers everywhere are ineffably saddened when you ignore what they made just for you!

    Let's see if I can get any better flights to Tucson the second time around.

    Edit: Not really. No flights at all from Tucson to Austin that depart after 4:20pm on Monday.

    You can get high after you land.

    Right, but in order to work a NAC in theory you have to be available until 5pm on the last day, at least. Needing to leave by 3pm at the very latest is not very condusive to the same.

    No wonder it's hard to get people to work at NAC's if everyone has to be there for four days.

    Most FOCs bring in some referees for only 3 days, but a 4 day commitment is more likely to get you hired, especially if you are a less well known referee.
    Go to the well until the well is dry. When the well is dry find a new well.
