[ooc]The current time is noon.  Does Otter walk out of the store holding the Bluetooth device, or does she put it in the shopping cart with the rest of the gear?[/ooc]Everyone loads into the waiting SHO at the front curb of the store.  Once everyone is inside, J.R. puts the Taurus in gear and sets the car in motion.  [gm]J.R. has Drive (Dex) on his skill list, so make a Drive check.  The Best Buy you are leaving is at:  9977 East Washington Street, Cherry Tree Plaza, Indianapolis, Indiana 46229.  The transmission intercepted by Cyril stated that the group was to go to the railroad tracks that cross East Michigan Street, near North Pine Street (see the Google map, above).  Rubberneck, since you are driving, tell me the route you take to get from Best Buy to the railroad tracks on East Michigan.  If anyone feels that their character would be a backseat driver with a "better" route, feel free to post saying so.  If this little experiment of mine goes badly awry, I'll step in and adjudicate, but for now I'm curious to see what you all do with it.[/gm]</blockquote>
