Hey Wally.

 

I've been to many, many dinners.

 

They are supposed to be about talking with fellow collectors, not eating dinner.

 

Problem is that you get stuck at a table that allows you to chat with only a small handful of folks.

 

Here is my idea:

 

We have a "party" poolside at the Westin & just have a bunch of pizzas delivered.

 

BYOB.

 

This way we get to socialize & mingle.

 

The last dinner was horrible for me. I was stuck talking with joeypost all night & ended up with one of his hair balls next to one of my meatballs.

 

:mad:

lol

 

Tuppeny, I see your point...and I also think some may prefer one over the other. I suspect we will be scattered anyway.

 

Hey, those that decide to do dinner can go grab some more beer and head back to the Westin?

How about Italian for Friday night?

 

Mama Ricottas is a couple of blocks over...

 

 

I could set up a party and we could eat family style,

but we need to find out how many are going to be there soon

because I am sure reservations will be a challenge the longer we wait.

 

 

hm

 

Wally,

 

How far is this from the event? Transporation may be an issue...

 

otherwise a good idea. I'm sure not everyone can go as so many are attending; I say those wanting to go to this dinner event please post here by end of day tomorrow and I can help set up the rest. I'll start by calling them today to see what the forecast is for Friday.

 

Anything you guys come up with is fine with me

 

Mama Ricottas is about 1 and 1/2 miles from the convention center, but fairly easy to get to.

Having something over at the Westin would be great too.

You got off easy. He ate half of my dessert.

That's what usually happens when you agree to split a dessert :baiting:

I was only being polite. (shrug)
why would you want to be polite :baiting:

 

He likes to try new things. Tomorrow, in breaking with Tennesseean tradition, he'll start showering. :baiting:

 

here's hoping next week he'll actually use soap...

 

 

:roflmao:

Hey, not all of us have places we can't quite reach with a wash cloth. :sumo:
