Anything you specifically want to do:
As for me, I Monday night is the NCAA National Championship game and as OSU alum I will be wanting to watch that. Any other OSU alum that are going to be in town I would love to watch the game with.

Hi CES conference-goers,
I'll be in town the whole week (and most weeks, since I live here
) so whenever anybody wants to get together, I'm game. And if you have a spare pass, I'd love to see some of them thar electronic doodads one of the days.

Thanks for the help. Things have been a little hectic around the Mrp Alert world lately which has minimized FT time. Hopefully this will change in the new year.

There has to be a lot more... I'm guessing this thread isn't getting too much face time.
I have been sick as a dog the last few days and on top of it I've been packing the fiancee at SNA for her move up to LAS (Friday), so I'll be out of comission this weekend. I hope to put together the master thread tomorrow afternoon though to try to get some structure to this (short) thread.

Woo hoo, just found this. Sorry I'm a bit late to the party.
In 1/6
Out 1/10
Staying at Planet Hollywood
Don't know when I'm free but certainly can meet for a drink at a club late night. We pretty much have a table reserved at every nightclub
Sunday night Chuck D (of Public Enemy) and DMC (of Run DMC) are performing together for the first time at the Hard Rock. My close friend is performing with them so I'll be there.

Looks like I will be missing most of CES as I am driving up to Saint George, Utah Monday evening and returning Thursday morning. If anyone would like to have dinner Monday or Thursday, shoot me a PM.

Gotta do something with the 3 overlapping rental car reservations from different car companies that I had/have. It's mileage running with cars and RDMs instead of airplanes. ~1.0 cpm and no wear and tear on my car. Fuel economy isn't as good as my Civic Hybrid, but its a sacrifice I can live with.
