Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Well crap. I just tried to book my room for Thursday night, and the best rate they have left is $182 with no cancellation. Now I need to pack my tent. (I will note that I was able to book the rest of the weekend no problem.)

Why weren't we able to get the group rate for Thursday again?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

There was a conference on Thursday.

Thrive to spite them

Does anyone know if AnneW's been around? I need to get in touch with her about the f2f.

Yes, Sushi-Ko. I haven't been in a number of years, but my sister, who lives in DC, said it was still good, last time I asked her. IIRC, they do serve non-sushi items.

I would also recommend Kaz Sushi Bistro. It's owned/run by the guy who used to be the chef at Sushi-Ko, who I suspect was the chef when you were there. I know that they serve non sushi items. However, it's not cheap. Worth the money, but not a destination for Buffistas on a budget, unless they are really into sushi.

Hey Jon, are you interested in driving down from Boston? I can't remember if you had bought plane tickets already.

Edit: this invitation is open to all Boston-area Buffistas, by the way--but someone mentioned upthread that they thought Jon might be driving down, so I thought I'd ask.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I haven't bought plane tickets yet, but I'm looking into combining my DC trip with a visit to a friend in Virginia. If I do that, I'll fly.

SFistas - for my personal amusement, I checked JetBlue (out of Oakland, to Dulles), and you can get here for $218 round trip

Anyone missing?

I'll be there!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just tried to get a reservation starting Thursday night, and the price is now up to 225 plus tax for Thursday night, so I need to rescind my invitation to crash for that night.

Our wings are not tired

My trip is all booked, and I even have all my places to stay all set. I feel all organized. The only thing that is still up for grabs is how I'm getting to and from the airport.
