Thanks, lili!
From last years thread...

This looks is shaping up to be quite the smack down (in more ways than one); I love it! ^
p.s. I am too dainty to wait in a rental car line so it will be either Hertz or National for me.

Looking forward to Saturday, my flight gets in at 10:15 and I head straight to OK Joe's. I haven't booked a hotel room yet as I'm not sure if I'm spending Sunday in KC or closer to Lawrence.

Currently getting in around 9pm (ish) Friday night. Don't think I'll be able to make dinner but will see everyone on Saturday at noon!
Staying Saturday night @ Hyatt Regency Crown Center. Is anyone else there?

Sorry for the late reply, but I'll be attending all events. Looking forward to being able to help host you guys in my hometown.
As a good midwesterner, I'll be driving my big green machine around:

Two more days!!
The forecast:
Friday---T-Storms and 70 degrees.
Saturday--Partly Cludy with a high of 65-70
Sunday---Some forecasts show rain and some show sun.
As we say in Kansas City...if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes.
We will shoot for a formal start to happy hour at 630pm at Jack Stack. I'm sure myself and Beckles will be getting an early start to happy hour. This year I will have name tags so that should help in getting to know each other.

When are you getting in William? Which (Starwood I presume) hotel are you staying at?
MCI777, how about the Cashew for the pre-Jack Stack meeting?

I haven't been doing a good job of keeping up with some older posts, so here are some comments on a few older posts:
That is clearly a violation of "shotgun" calling protocol and therefore null and void.
Wow, congrats!

LOL. 
Scheduled to land at 12:45, unless AA changes my flight...again. 
Staying at The Westin Crown Center. I have a 2 PM appointment with the GM, but will be free after that around an hour later.
Just let me know where you decide to go and what time you'll be there.
