ATTENTION F2Fers!!!

I have recieved a request to send the information about arrivals/departures/cell numbers, etc. to the entire group.

If you have any objection to your information being sent to to the group, email me TODAY. I will email the spreadsheet to the entire list tomorrow morning. I'll still post the phone list in the hospitality suite regardless (minus the opt outs, of course)

And, please dont feel awkward about asking that your information not be included. There are several people without cells or whatever, and just have 'none" listed next to their name, so it won't look awkward for you at all. Also, if you have some sort of financial issue (i.e. it costs you money to recieve calls), you can let me know that too, and I'll put an asterisk next to your number, which means only call if you need to talk to the person, and not for idle chat, which we are so good at.

A reminder, as it is the Day Before.

SEATTLE AREA FINALE PARTY!

My place Wed., May 19th., gates open at 7, close whenever. We have a digital receiver, so we actually get a nice, crisp picture.

I'll have some snacks, some sodas, and possibly phad thai.

We do have cats, but I can lock 'em in the basement if need be.

Need directions? Profile address, she's good.

Oh, and did I mention we also have AMYPARKER? Hmm?

Another reminder, this time for Chicagoistas--Angel Finale Party at my place in Oak Park!! E-mail me for info today if you can make it.

A passel of fine Buffistas will be present, as will my cat and dinner (not the same thing).

As long as Plei is doing it...

NEW YORKISTA FINALE PARTY!!!!

I emailed my address and phone number to those of you who RSVPd so if you didn't get it or would like to yet RSVP drop me a note.

I do NOT have digital cable, I have an antenna -- so you'll probably want to tape at home.

I DO have a small dog. Clarinex will be provided if necessary and I'll happily keep the little bitch on a leash upon request.

Ladies and Gents, I apologize if this is out of place, but I wanted to post a notice that has been sent around; perhaps some of those attending the F2F or living in and around DC might want to add this to their to-do list in DC.

On January 29, 2004, Bus 19 was destroyed by a suicide bomber on a Jerusalem street. Among the 11 who were killed was Yechezkel Goldberg. Goldberg was a social worker who worked primarily with troubled youth, both in Jerusalem and in his hometown of Betar Illit. His sister, Carrie Devorah, is a DC-area journalist.

In February, the remains of Bus 19 were placed opposite the building in The Hague where the International Court of Justice was hearing testimony on the legality of the West Bank separation fence. Carrie Devorah went to the Hague to stand beside the bus and tell the world, “This is the bus my brother was murdered on...this time it is me. Terrorism doesn't discriminate. Next time it may be you."

Bus 19 is on tour, thanks to the efforts of Christians for Israel USA and ZAKA, the organization which recovers and helps identify the remains of terror victims. The bus will be in Washington, DC for part of May. We encourage you to come and stand in solidarity at this display of the results of terrorism in Israel. It is a powerful statement of support for Israel and support for the families of the dead.

The bus will stand:

May 19 - 21 on the Mall, west side of the Reflecting Pool

May 23 - 27 on the Mall, west side of the Reflecting Pool

Shoot. I wasn't trying to push the press limit. I posted this in the wrong window last night. Sorry. Deleted.

Shamelessly quoted at least one Buffista without asking nicely first. Feel free to sue:

the headline would have been better had i gotten my druthers

Druthers is a good word.

edit: I suck, been gone so long forgot about spoilers. So, what she said: SPOILY!!

Seriously spoilery to anyone who's yet to see the finale...
