Let's see as i pack my bags for this Las Vegas FT Board Meeting: a couple dozen FT luggage tags to give away (check), a couple dozen FT pins to give away (check), a dozen or so FT t-shirts to give away (check), 10-20,000 AAdvantage miles to give away in increments of 500 (check), an exclusive 'House of Miles' denim shirt with the official logo (check), low balance on my double mile earning United Mileage Plus Visa to pick up bar tabs and other treats for FlyerTalkers (check), one or two of the infamous MCI black bags last seen at the PIP (Party in Paradise) for possible giveaway or raffle (check), ummmm, let's see, what else am i missing?

See you all there and this should be fun. As a side note: the infamous mileage man, Randy Petersen was at one time a member of the varsity football team at the University of Nevada Las Vegas and actually played as a freshman before transferring the next year (just never fully appreciated the .99 buffets....). His claim to fame - one of the (if not the....) fastest guys on the team.
