There are still 5 seats available. Spread the word. I need to have someone seated next to Marty at all times.
Isn't that why you hired those psych interns to be on board for some observation hours?

At this rate, BRT 15 will be sold out in a few weeks. If you're thinking of coming along for a day of fun in Brooklyn, now's the time to get off you touchis.
FYI, another thing you'll learn on the tour are lots of Jewish expressions; @:-) although these days those expressions have been assimilated into the daily language.

Pushback at 10:00

Pick up location: Write it down

234 East 46 street. It's the same location as previous tours. This is between Second and Third Avenue on the east side. It's just down the block from Sparks Steakhouse.

Arrive 9:30 - 9:45. Doors close at 10:00. Departure immediately following.

I'll be PM'ing you my cell phone number prior to the tour. Rest assured that I will not be calling you if you're late. If you are running late, I'll give you directions to our first stop. Its happened before, and it will happen again. I did leave Catman, one of my oldest dearest friends behind.

You'll need cash for pizza at L&B + bakery goodies + dinner at Juniors.

Anyone not on the tour can join us for lunch or dinner. We've been known to give hitchhikers a ride to our next stop.

ldsant is coming + someone has asked me to hold a seat until Sunday.

If that person can make it, that means a waitlist will be started.

5 weeks to go.

EWR has issues right now, the monorail to the rail station is closed for repairs so you have to take a bus or a cab.

LGA is closest mileage wise if you want to take a cab, or you can take a bus to the subway. I'm flying into LGA.

Well I'm staying in Newark (Hilton Newark Penn Station) so how about you can have all the points I'm losing for that fact?

I'm in

I'm paid up so I guess it's official. I've never been to NYC before so I' expecting an adventure.

Still working on flights and hotel options.

Hey, watch it. Some of us (ok, maybe just me) are only lucky enough for TTN!
