For fares to Phoenix and Vegas, keep in mind that Southwest Airlines is not captured by Orbitz searches.
F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!
Hmm, perhaps this is an argument for waiting
But not too long. We didn't know we'd have to cancel until into April.
I don't think there is any argument in waiting.
Wherever we have it, there are people who can go, there are people who can't. It's life. We'll pick a city for 2006 and have a blast. It sucked not more could come to NO, but we'll have a blast wherever it is. I do think the poll we used for 2004 was a better poll and gave us a better idea of who could come.
So.
Onward.
On Vegas - I've been in December, I've been in May, I've been in July and I've been in August. Like NOLA, everywhere is airconditioned. Unlike NOLA, NO HUMIDITY. People laugh at the "dry heat", but it makes a huge difference. Plus, damn near every hotel has pools and those pools have cabanas. And those cabanas have boys. We could, possibly, get enough into a slush fund to have a cabana for at least 2 days. And you can take your food and drinks into them and into the rooms. And on the street. And into other casinos.
Also, Southwest. Usually you can get $99 fares each way.
Maybe this is just my little nit but I want a larger turn-out for the next F2F. I'm sure the people that went to NO had a grand time and I'm not saying that anything was necessarily *wrong* with the way it was done last year, I just think we can improve on the process with a few tweaks.
I can also appreciate when people say that the heat isn't an issue because there's air conditioning everywhere. I just disagree. If I'd gone to NO, I'd have missed the group cemetary tour and the group lunches because DAMN! you guys looked hot. Of course, HAWT, but also HOT. Not everything is able to be done indoors.

There's nothing interesting outdoors in Vegas.

Unless you think that avoiding the little porn card fliers being shoved at you is interesting.

Absolutely. (Not from an organizer POV, though. That was brilliant and was fab.)

Unless it poolside with cabana boys.
There's the volcano at the Mirage, that's outside.
Maybe I'm stretching the meaning of "interesting" too far.
BIG GAY PIRATE SHOW AT TREASURE ISLAND!

What, looking at atom bomb test sites isn't interesting?
