I was just thinking none of my immediate neighbors have known me to have a party. My last party was a couple of days before the one neighbor moved in. Not like we can get in trouble in day light.

Tried it just to say that I had, and decided (permanenetly as of that moment) that I'm a vodka guy. Upon posting that story the first time, several Box Denizens remarked that free Woodford is the best kind of Woodford. Since I don't like it, it's theirs to have that night.

Just inquiring, as I want to be a 'good' guest! Good for you to 'share' for this occasion! I imagine that munchies are never a bad idea to accompany the cocktails!

CM,

Is there any place in NJ or PHL to buy tito's or should I try to pack 1.5L or two(750ml) in the checked bags?

I have a store that sells it down the street from my house. Want me to just bring you a receipt?

How much pregaming are you planing on doing?

I'll have beer, one bottle of wine (unless someone really wants to open the two old bottles) and I do intend to open it and share it because it would sadly go to waste with just me, and Maker's Mark and I'm sure I'll get the empty shelf filled a bit more in the mean time

Maybe I will bring a keg.

Okayyyyy! That sounds like a score right off the bat.

it looks like its going to be at least 25 people, if 50% have a sip that is not going far.....

Mike,

What's price like there? I will be renting a car in PHL, so I am going to take it a bit easy over the entire night :D but 5-6 shots is nothing esp if done early.

And I think that a proper announcement should be made so that some of the Denizens can get cheap tickets to Fla and reserve some of the hotel rooms that are dirt cheap off season.

Also, it would be good to get some sort of a count so that I can get some restaurant to hold a private room so this crowd can get as rowdy as it pleases.

eh what are we talking about? I am in So Fla regularly, need to know! Sounds like two weeks later as in the 12-18th time frame however....which I can't make will be on vacation in the DC area and across the nation on a train.

I'll get back to you on that. I have an interview tomorrow and some other errands to run, so I'll poke my head into said store and find out.

That's not a bad idea. June 13th somewhere in Northern Broward/Southern Palm Beach Counties.

Ahhh. This feels almost as good as when I divorced US.

I divorced US after being charged for a lost e-ticket ...

I'm down for pre-game.

Hyatt Place is your backup? I'm hurt ...

If you are picking me up at PHL, are you sure the bottle of Woodford is going to make it to Shogun? I make a point of drinking out F on a number of (SkyTeam partner and SkyTeam wholly-owned subsidiary) aircraft.

And you'll represent at that interview, we're sure.

:D I already booked the PHL Hyatts were looking very :rolleyes:

Now that I look at Hyatt Place Princeton, it is too: 296.00

No thanks!

Now as for PHL, if for any reason Mike can't pick you up, I can probably get you there as well, or if you need a ride back. I'll be renting.

My luck with on-time flights today just ran out. My last flight (CLT-TPA) is showing a 50 minute delay due to MX in SFO. No food voucher "because it is not a meal flight." :rolleyes:

This MR has sucked pretty good.

I need to figure out transit to/from NJ for Shogun and the pre/post parties. I definitely don't want to be driving. :D
