    Based on the responses so far, i'm NOT clicking the link. I fear my retinas may be burned.

    Jesse is guest bartender! He'll be dressed in classic Chipendales attire.
    Antny is guest chef who will also be dressed in classic Chipendales attire.
    Disneyjoe is guest waiter who will be dressed like the first two.

    I'll be arriving flat out drunk so they are just a blur and nothing close to being recognized as human.
    No excuses!

    Cool deal. Monica? Sweet, sweet Monica what can I say? She rocks! [Well, maybe she listens more than she rocks (very quietly), but she still rocks! :D ] Mark? Definitely one of a kind and filled with a plethora of information! Al? Well, he unfortunately had to leave early at last year's PF so hopefully he can hang long enough this year to get to know some of the newer folks attending.

    I look forward to seeing them again.

    Thanks DB, that reminds me, I asked a while back and never got a definite answer because I don't believe that it's been discussed, but are we gonna all try to stay at a particular hotel?

    Should we make a "group" whatever the hell it's called to discuss the who and where? My only request is that it's within walking distance to a pit stop that serves beer....maybe a little of the stronger stuff. :D

    i haven't made any room reservations yet myself.. I too would like to stay in the same place as other people or close by. makes carpooling much easier.

    I prob won't book my room for a few month's still.

    Thanks Carl. I have not made any hotel reservations yet, so let me know. I want to see if I can apply my corporate discount somewhere.

    Is the Hilton one of the discounted for you? That's where I'm planning on staying. It only seems logical that the group stay within close proximity of each other. Makes things easier. Know what I'm sayin'?
