It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Mostly lurking...

Well, yeah, there is that, Nora!

I'd love to see the surrounding area, myself. I managed to spend one good day in Boston and saw a lot of the highlights. The only thing I really want to go back to is the MFA. You know museums, you can never see everything in just one visit.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

while that hotel looks lovely, I'm not sure it has everything we want. It doesn't look like they have suites, for the hospitality suite, or any kind of meeting room/ballroom we could have prom in.

Well, the party always has been in the hotel but I don't suppose it HAS to be -- as long as its in staggering distance.

Just floating an idea: What if this time we picked the city THEN picked the date? We'd be better able to cope with local events, weather, etc.

A lot of the time people can make a date but end up not coming because they can't make the cost -- this could be a way to keep the costs down.

Or maybe pimp a city and a date (or two) at the same time.

That way were deciding between, say, Atlanta at a good time for Atlanta and Boston at a good time for Boston.

The status is NOT quo.

I completely second Trudy's idea. Can we please pick the city and then the date? My answer to "when could you attend" will vary wildly depending on the city.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Well, this one's easy for me. I can almost guarantee Thessaly and I will finally show up if it's in Boston.

Or maybe you and sj should pimp Worchester...

Worcester. I won't pimp it because I really don't want to be a point person in charge of things. Sorry.

I was just coming back to fix that.

Silly fingers.
