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!

I'll be there for a week, May 17-24. I'd love to see a play midweek. Anyone want to recommend something?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Oooh, go see The Comedy of Errors at the Folger Theatre. I've heard terrific things about it, and that's the last week it's playing. I'm going to try and go myself.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I saw that one at the Carter Barron a few years back. Very enjoyable, as long as you think "comedy" more than "Shakespeare."

Our wings are not tired
So I'm trying to get things rolling on collecting money for Prom and there's been some discussion of whether $20/person will cover things. We've got two weeks until the F2F, so we need to get this ironed out, pretty much NOW, not in a few days, or a week, we need to get this taken care of.
From what I can see we've got 65 people signed up, at $20/person that's $1300. We need to buy $800 in food from the hotel, and we need to rent the AV at $150. We also need to pay for the bartender to serve us drinks, be we're paying for the drinks themselves. Do we have a number on how much the bartender is? Hopefully much much less than $350.
Where are we on this folks? What am I missing in the "We have to pay for it" department?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Don't know, ND. I'm just waiting for someone to give me a total so I can find it, budget it, and send it.

It's possible that a TV is not included in the Penthouse suite. One would hope that it is, but Java didn't know. I meant to call and ask earlier today, but things got busy at work and I forgot. I just tried calling and everyone's left for the weekend, so I'll have to try again Monday.
Anyway, if it isn't, we'll need to pay extra for it and it may cost upwards of $125/day.

As I recall, the bartender was $75 for three hours, $25/hour thereafter. Probably the tax/service fee that seems to be added to everything is on top of that.

Okay, so we're wondering about a TV. One would hope that one is there. If it's $125/day we'll end up paying more for the TV in the room than the whole room is costing for the weekend.
Right now, barring a TV rental, it seems like $20 is the right figure.

To rent a TV? Why on earth? Jeez, you can buy a new one, 27" colour, for $169 at Costco.
