A little uncertain of my travel schedule, but for now, please put me in the "yes" column. :)




(I second this motion, though I am slightly biased as I think I was the one that hosted the CBC meet-up a few years back. :p I like the Kinsale location and venue, which is a pretty high priority in my mind. I've always been less than enthusiastic about the beer prices and quality of food there. But again, I don't go for the food; I go for the company...oh, and to be ridiculed for knowing so little about credit card programs and manufactured spend. :))

I, too, had not seen this thread. There's an outside chance that I'll be able to attend, so mark me a definite maybe. At least I'll be in the correct hemisphere on that day, just not sure yet if Boston.

Topic 1 for this Do: Location for the next Do.



Excellent, hope to see you there. I enjoy your posts in Starwood.

And everyone else, whom I was too lazy to quote, looking forward to seeing you again!

Mike

Mike's trying to pack the meetup with A-listers - it's not enough that he's got Marathon Man - in hopes that that will encourage more of us commoners to attend, so he can generously offer to take our cash and "cover" the whole bill with his credit card... :D

Yes to my attending.

For those so inclined, the Boston CVS stores seem to always have a good supply of VR's. Even a CVS located adjacent to the restaurant.

If you posted in the way normal people do, you'd probably have 20k by now :p. Should we ask in advance how many $2 tacos we can order? Or do we just order 200 and make a good time of it?

You're still under "maybe" status. Should I move you?

look buster... I'll force you to pay for the meals at the DO with a non mileage or CB earning CC and then tell citi TY and Chase UR about your shenanigans with their cards (even if you never did any lol). Then I will force you to read all of my pasts posts (something that could break one's server) and come with me to Walmart as I make you swipe my Debit card 4 times for $8k and give me miles but do so on check cashing day!

Either that or we'll have a few laughs about the latest change in miles land. :D
