Well news of me: I won't be able to make it on Friday for that dinner as I have found out the date for the winter concert that I am in for my school is on that day. From what I heard it will be very long as there will actually be two breaks with three parts in it. So, it'll be at the movies you'll see me.~Jason
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Well I'll be in town before then(at around 4ish I think...got check up on Train ticket) and meeting up with Wilson...so that's probably pretty cool with us.

Closer to 7-7:30 would probably work better. I'm getting off early from work but need to stop off either to pick Phil up (if he needs a ride) or in Allentown PA so I'll be in the city by 6 at the absolute earliest.

If it were up to Marcao, we'd all be heading to his favorite Taco Bell in the middle of Harlem to have chalupas.

Hard Rock Cafe should be good.

That works for me.

19:30 should be the best time. Gives Greg and passengers plenty of time to get sorted out and everyone else time to travel to the Place without being too late. Sounds like a plan.

Just realised that with Kat not being able to make it (No fair, who am I going to hug now?), no members of SOS will be there. It'll be the only groups not represented. Unless Marina's coming.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go away and sort things out with my job.

Neither am I - by quite some margin :D . Just wondered if she would be joining us or not. She doesn't have to publically announce it if she doesn't want to, just let Dalton or I know by PM.

Guess I'll have to give Kat an Extra big hug then. :wink:

Maybe you'll be able to make the Ep3 get together, in the dim and distant future. :)

I'm still trying to get my work schedule straight. I don't know whether I'm coming Friday night or Saturday morning.

Short notice idea: unless plans for Saturday night have already been made, perhaps we could go to my old Friday's? I gaurentee it'll be better than the last one we went to. It's only 15 minutes from the Lincoln tunnel. Besides, I'd like to see some old friends while I'm in the area.

I don't think we had any plans at all for Saturday night, so maybe we could do that.

Brilliant. A fair few of us will be in NYC on Saturday, so a Second Dinner gives us something to do and means that those that miss the Friday dinner have something to aim for.

Strictly speaking this won't be a part of the meet as such, but as so many of us will be staying in the same place, it'll be fun. So GR, Phil, Greg, Lurker and I will be there at least with attendant GF's and friends. Any others that feel like joining us feel free. I'm sure Phil will put up an address and we can sort out a time by Monday-tuesday.

For the recor, Rob, Corrine will not be joining us. She's flying out to see her Dad for Christmas and doesnt' think she'll be done X-mas shopping (and spending time with her Mom) by the 20th. Now I MIGHT be able to convince her abotu Sat night but Fri night and the movie itself are out.

Oh yes and Phil it sounds like a great idea, plus I'm always up for last second changes of plans. Just give me a call. Also for the record if anyone needs to reach me (and I believe Rob might already have this number):

Well don't forget some of us will be having a little dinner on Saturday night as well.

Right, my train leaves in 5 hours. I have to sleep, so I'll see you all on Friday. Don't forget Chistmas cards. :P

Unfortunately this weekend I have my daughter so I will be unable to particpate. ROTK simply is not something for children to see. FOTR and TTT to an extent were slightly more Kid friendly but ROTK is definately a teenager and up film so many apologies friends.
