Just wondering!!

Maybe NYC is expelling all the liberals like Guiliani did with the homeless people!

4. Hey, Lynne!
There's that huge thread with all the New Yorkers signing in -- and we can't get anyone to come to the meetup? What's up with that?

We lost another one of our group. Catchawave isn't coming now -- but she was supposed to stay with her daughter in Brooklyn, so it doesn't affect hotel or anything.

14. Yes
I think it's the Green Line Subway that has a stop that's about a block from Rocky Sullivan's. Randi Rhodes is a regular at this place and we're emailing her in hopes we can get her to shop up on Saturday night

Anyhow, I'll give you my cell phone and you can call once you're in NYC and I can help you get there

11. I was thinking about it.
But, I'm just starting a new job, and I'm not sure how showing up bleary on the day after a holiday would go over.

It's cheap to fly up there though. Jet Blue just started serving Austin, so flights are really cheap.

34. David is Da' MAN when it comes to going to these events.


The Trek to Andy's Funeral was amazing...I think he was still working for State of TX back then. Don't know how you "Youngin's" do it?
If he can make it...he'll BE there. To the bank, Sharon

12. No way I can afford it right now, just came back from NYC
train, hotel, food and drink etc added up pretty quickly. I had to go for work and the expenses were all out of pocket.
It is official, I am so broke, I can't even pay attention. :-(
Any chance of another one in May?

17. Phila works OK- I can stay at family in Jersey
But it still will have to wait a bit. Between taxes, kids tuition, health insurance due next month, and my $1000 flat tire there is no "extra" money.
A windfall would be nice right about now. :think: I've got it! I'll become an oil company exec!

21. Sarah and I happen to be in town that day.
It's her birthday. We'll be seeing Spamalot at eight, and dinner right before, but we may be able to stop by afterwords or even Sunday morning.

And David, we both love you, but you don't get to stay in the hotel room with us. ;-)

I couldn't afford to fly there, anyway, but the 18th is Mardi Gras weekend, and I never miss my cousin's street party.

:rofl:

Looks like the weather is getting colder -- I hope it gets warmer again by the time we get there. It's 60 there today, but in the 30s next week. At least it looks like it's going to be warmer there than it is here next week. We're going back to the 20s all week. Glad I'll be in Atlanta for three days.
