I guess I get to post the first semi-trip report from the CatManDo! I showed up for the pre-dinner drinks; unfortunately it was real crowded and I only got to introduce myself to a few Flyertalkers -- only the ones Scott the flier could introduce to me since I had no idea who anyone was and I got frustrated of introducing myself to total non-Flyertalk strangers

I did catch Catman and while chexfan graciously was going to give me his seat since he couldn't attend, there was no room for my wife at the dinner.

So I left. However, it looked pretty neat and I heard Catman mention that he had a party of 79. Wow! That's a whole lotta Flyertalkers. Hope you guys had a great meal at Cite; personally I walked a couple of blocks away and had dinner at Famous Original Ray's pizza.

I'm sure a lot of interesting stories will come out of the meet; sorry I couldn't be part of it even though I was three blocks away Oh well, hope everyone had fun!
