I'm sorry - I thought Vortex's song was "Baby Got FRONT".
You know, Aimée, I was going to say this way back when but I decided against it. Thanks for picking up the slack.
Mal: Okay. She won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon. But she is solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die. Zoe: 'Cause it's a deathtrap.
'Out Of Gas'
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!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Your theme song ought to be "Baby's Got Front Porch (Where NoiseDesign Likes To Rest His Head)."

oooh Memphis
While I would dearly love to play host/tour guide to any Buffistas who care to visit the city in small groups, I think it's a really, really bad choice for a large f2f. Any of the above cities would probably be much better suited for our needs.
Speaking of, is Nashville already covered by a point person? If not, I can start making calls and e-mail inquiries.

So, it seems that the Cleveland Visitor and Convention Bureau, which I'd asked for information about hotels and cool things to do and see, sent information to some hotels. I got an e-mail today offering us $79 per room and a free hospitality suite at a Clarion Hotel and Convention Center near the airport. It's not within walking distance for partying or stuff doing, but it is near the public transport route. I'm guessing there'll be other offers. I told them no decision would be made on city until July, and no decision on hotel until October. I guess they wanted to be proactive.
eta: The Hampton downtown, with wireless access in guest and public areas, has offered $89.00 per night, free hospitality suite if we use 60 rooms total (pick up of 60 or more room nights) includes free breakfast. Parking is $15.00 a day.
and the Wyndham at Playhouse Square, an amazing hotel, has offered $95 a night, free prom space. It has an indoor pool, sauna, hot tub and gym, with free spa products in the guest rooms.
The Cleveland Marriot downtown (near the Wyndham) has offered $129.00 a night, free prom space. It's less attractive than the Wyndham, and doesn't have free spa products in the bathroom, but does have the indoor pool, hot tub and gym.

This is a question to the stompies. Can we use the b.org voting system to narrow down our choices for the F2F 2005? I'm not sure what goes into setting up a vote and all of that with the b.org system but it seems like that would be the way to go for this.

Can't we just do a Mr. Poll? That's what we've done in the past.
