For those who are interested in attending Rita Rudner on Saturday at 7 pm, please email me and I'll be glad to go ahead and purchase a block of tickets for the show, so we can all sit together.
I'd appreciate it if you can Paypal me or make other arrangements by Monday night for the ticket payment, so I'll know how many tickets to purchase. I'll then be emailing everyone to let them know how we'll arrange to get their tickets to them. Saw Rita on the Wayne Brady show yesterday--she's still as hilarious as I remember from her HBO special!
P.S. to Randy--I REALLY like the way you pack!

Oh brother. Finally a DO in what will be my backyard, and I'm going to have to cancel on yet another event.
I'm helping someone pack and move next weekend, so I won't be in town anymore. If anyone is getting in before around 5PM Friday, or will be around through Monday, let me know -- I'd still love to meet some folks!

Houston, we have a problem.
I have been trying to confirm that the UA and LH reps will be there, and after a phone call to the LA United Sales office, they said that she is no longer with United. I have a bad feeling in my gut she is victim to additional layoffs by United. Just proof that they are making cuts up and down the system. The LH rep will probably not be able to attend, but will try to put together some things and Fed Ex them to me in time for the meeting. Carnival is still coming with goodies!
Sorry for this HUGE disappointment.... this was totally unexpected.

Bseller and guest are clearly up for either Napoleon's or the bar at the Bellagio....and if Bseller has his way with the tables (?), he will even buy the first round......
OTOH, perhaps everyone should come armed with enough cash to help (!) buy the first round,,,,,since it's unlikely that the BJ tables will offer up sufficient good will!
Best wishes.

Well, I'm headed to MCO for the World Congress on Disabilities in a little while, and don't know if I'll have internet access or not.
So, just wanted to say I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in Vegas on Saturday!
