Repairman Jack convention - Bluesman Mike Lindner - 11-28-2006

NYC is on "the list" of future venues along with London and NJ, where FPW lives.This year we may do it in Chicago again as one of the core members is getting married and we may plan it around that. However, we have not made a final decision. We'd also love to do it in London and there has also been talk of a "GU cruise." For cities, we try to keep it close to where a core member is so we have a local to guide us. Now that we have Maggers, NYC is a great possibility.

Overheard this morning at Isher Sporting Goods:
Mike, this cheesecake is delicious. Only next time maybe you should bring something for yourself too.
Check it out, Abe. Suddenly the Bluesman is chopped liver.
Where? Let me see.
I could have =sworn= I live in New York.
Oy! But don't worry. You help Maggers show people around town, that's a mitzvah.

Vegas is actually pretty inexpensive. If you dont stay in one of the big casinos it's downright cheap. Because of all the new hotels the old ones on the strip go for as little as forty a night. The old ones are better, they have character. And dont forget the world famous $4.99 lobster buffet all day every day!
Or did you mean losing your ass gambling?

Ouch. Chicago, maybe. Jersey definitely, New York definitely. Anything involving flying, however, would pose a roadblock for me.
