I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

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!

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

I think I'm in favor of one vote, with a survey sort of "which cities would you be able to attend?" question, so that, if the final vote is really close (like, within a few votes), but a lot more people would be able to attend one than the other, we could see that. (I seriously doubt that would happen, but I think it would be nice to be able to see the data.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It sounds like we could do each of the four cities and then give the option for "Would Attend" "Would Not Attend" and then score from there.

Personally, I'd rather either rank the cities, or just pick one choice among the four. If we're going to be asking "would attend" / "would not attend," I think that should be a pre-vote survey, not the vote itself.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It's a legendary Buffista sore spot. Except with Jon.

Oh, no, it's a sore spot for me too. Just for different reasons. :^P

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

See, I remember last year's vote including a 'will/can not go to this city' option. Am I on the bad crack?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

There was, but I don't think the city was chosen because of the # of "can't go"s, but I dunno. I probably couldn't go to one or two cities, but that's just sometimes the way the cookie crumbles.

Our wings are not tired

Wow, those are some great rates for KC. I want that just so that I can grab a Jacuzzi suite.

Do you have addresses for those two? Are they right on the Plaza?

The no parking charges are also great and that's a good rate for the prom rooms.

I would totally get a jacuzzi suite.

Yeah, and those suites are around the price that the regular rooms were going for in DC. That's great!
