Today I booked my direct flight on Southwest to Kansas City, Missouri. From there, as I mentioned before, I will rent a car to get to Kansas City, Kansas (it sounds like Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas are only about a 10 minute drive from each other?) and then to Omaha, Nebraska (so I get to add 2 more new states to my list) to meet TK for the ride to Waterloo later that week. I can say this absolutely true. Your Google Maps will be super overworked during those drives in the Kansas City area. I think the airport is in Missouri, so yeah you can count that as Missouri, and then within a short drive you'll be Kansas City, KS. I'd recommend stopping at Waldo Pizza, depending on arrival time, or going to Jack's Stack - which has fantastic bbq. Depending on your time window, I'd also look at Chick-In Waffle which is downtown in Kansas City, Kansas. It is the best Fried Chicken and Waffles place in KC. Obviously if you are taking a red eye, Lamar Donuts is a must - the best donut place in KC. I absolutely recommend their old fashioned donut or their red velvet donut. I have already been to Missouri as I have visited both St. Louis (in 2016) and Kansas City, Missouri (in 2018) in the past. I agree that Jack Stacks has great BBQ (I went there when I was in The Plaza area of Kansas City, Missouri.) But I will keep those restaurant recommendations for Kansas City, Kansas in mind!

Where are the countdown updates. I am over here with my abacus and Texas Instrument graphing calculator doing all kinds of equations to try and figure it out by myself and getting nowhere fast. Maybe it is time to bust out my ouija board and contact some spirts for help.

I think you can probably do it by googling it.
FYI:
39 Days until GCON Kick-Off and Tragos/Thesz Induction Weekend 40 Days until Tournaments and guaranteed receiving of TNTHOF IV, Origins 2139, and IPW II 41 Days until more Con activities 42 Days until the winner of the Galacticup is determined

the 39 is right at least however, it's definitely 6 weeks (42 days) till we determine G-Cup championship.

Unless by googling you mean those funny eyes, but I have no arts and crafts supplies right now. Oh, be careful with the coffee. Don't make it too strong.

On a semi related note, has anyone heard from Jim? Is this the year that Tournament Master takes over the longest consecutive GCONs attended streak?
