I'm thinking the leather is only going to be worn in the hotel, where hopefully everything is airconditioned.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
And the other kilts for the other, more casual nights?

Yes. The other kilts are twill, so comfortable like shorts, only with even better natural air conditioning.

Java, Unfortunately Plei and Paul are not coming, at least the last I heard.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
ND, do you have a variety of sgian dubhs to go with the variety of kilts?

No, I don't.

move out and draw fire
Um, I guess I'm heading up the food/beverage strike team of DCistas. Early estimates are $20.00/person, but that's based solely on the amount we have to get from the hotel and the number of people attending from Java Cat's list. We'll know more details after next weekend, but I don't think there will be too much change from that price.

Up with the sun
I don't want to step on raquel's toes, but I do have the hotel's menu bookmarked; it's here, ewith appetizery stuff starting on pg. 12.
Because most of us will have already eaten, my preference would be a selection of cold canapes ($250), a medium fruit and cheese tray ($325, serves 75-125; the smaller one is 25-75 and $250. I'm inclined to go larger because it looks like our guest count will be borderline.), and something from the hot menu, maybe chicken satay? ($250).
Total: $825, plus 30% tax and service ($247.50) comes to $1072.50. Divide that by 70 tickets, and we're at about $15.50. Adding in the $4.50 to cover the bartender and any hudden costs, keeping ticket price at $20, would make sense to me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Where exactly is the Prom? I need to call the hotel about the P.A. situation, but don't want to sound like a complete ignoramus.

Punishingly Intricate
Oh Jon, I asked my guitarist about borrowing his amp and he is willing to but I could tell he was kind of hesitant about letting it out of his sight. He and his amp are deeply, passionately in love. So I was thinking if Holli has one she can lend (she said that, right?) that might be a better option.
