Buffistas

This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

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!

Up with the sun

I don't know much about the map of the USA, but Boston and DC are on different, well, sides, of NYC, right? So it seems like the best way to go would be reach one city, travel from it to NYC, and from that to the other (the two cities I think about are Boston and DC)? Would people who know the places think that's trying to get too-much-in-too-short-a-time?

Yes, yes and no, depending on how long you want to spend in each place. It's about four hours from Boston to New York, and five from New York to D.C; if you fly, each leg would be about an hour. Perfectly doable if you have several days.

Nilly, when I did my East Coast Swing visiting Buffistas two years ago, I flew into DC, stayed there several days, took a bus up to NYC, and then took another bus up to Boston.

Okay, I am doing a little dance at the thought of Nilly in DC...here's to hoping my friend isn't travelling when Nilly's planning to visit!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

A note to Ginger, in re Nilly's visit to SF: just spoke with Jeannie, downstairs, and we look to be good to go for giving you a bed in her flat, downstairs. She only has three cats to our, er, larger pile, so your sinuses should rest a bit easier.

Thanks, Deb! And thank Jeannie for me.

So Nilly's going to stay with me, as is Bev; Ginger is going to be downstairs with Jeannie.

Anyone else need to arrange non-hotel accommodations? Or does anyone need help with Bay Area cheap hotels?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

If the next narrowing is going to rest on numbers, I'd like to make these arguments before the vote

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Nilly, doing something like flying into Boston, staying there a few days, going to NYC for a few days, then down here to DC for a few days, would be totally do-able. (If you want to stay with me, then coming to DC during the days when the Republican convention is in NYC would work out great -- that's the time in between when my exams end and classes start.)

For the Nilly visit, remember that the Dems are meeting in Boston - don't know the dates offhand, but it's probably around that time. Just think - you may have to come to DC to get away from the political folk!
