Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Our wings are not tired.

I like the idea of opening it up to voting for multiple dates and then going with the date that gets the most "yes I can go" votes. Don't we want to be the most inclusive possible?

And my thanks to anyone who steps up and adds helpful info and puts a fire under asses to get Decisions Made.

The status is NOT quo.

Okay doke. Well here are the results, for whatever they're worth.

June 26-27 (Providence or Philly; NYC not available) 15
 July 10-11 (NYC, Providence, or Philly) 8
July 17-18 (NYC, Providence, or Philly) 10

The winner is June 26-27, which means we now must vote Providence versus Philly. Could someone Nilly the pimpage for those two cities and combine them so people can see them more clearly?

sj and...whoever has taken over for Java...do you need more time to get exact price comparisons for this specific weekend, or do you feel ready to let people vote?

Pix, I would like at least through the end of the day tomorrow to follow through with a couple of hotels that I am waiting to hear back from.

Sounds good to me. You all take as long as you need, and poke me when you're ready for the next voting survey.

Aw, dang. Well, that makes my decision an easy one, I guess. I'm in a wedding in Chicago that weekend, so no F2F for me.

Because books.

The most affordable hotels in Philly were the Holiday Inn Historic District, Best Western Center City, and Crowne Plaza. All of the bids we have (all under $120) expire tomorrow, however, so I'll have to call and check on them.

I'm not sure what would happen after that, if Philly is chosen; one of the above hotels requires a deposit, although the other doesn't, and some of the details about prom would still need to be worked out.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I think I would call and ask them to extend for one week.

Well, the thing is, final negotiations can't take place until a firm count of rooms needed/persons per room is done. At least two of the hotels in Philly made that clear to me. I have a slight idea of how many people are going, but I have no idea how many plan to bunk together.

Java, do they want an exact number or a range?

I'm getting the pig!

Shucks. Back to the quiet corner for me, as well. Sis and her kids get into town on June 25th. Time to get comfy and wait patiently for pictures of happy, foamy 'fistas mingling in either Philly or Providence.
