Oh, and looking at the numbers last night, it looks like it's going to cost $35 per person to pay for the venue & some snacks. If this amount looks like it's going to be prohibitive for anyone, please pm me. I'm sure some of us would rather chip in more & have you guys come out, rather than have people decide not to come.

Thanks!
Just to add to this, I'll need first and last names.

I'm picking up some platters from Costco, veggie tray, mini sandwiches, stuff like that. EurTsx is bringing beverages, Jupitersolo will bring some chips and dip kind of thing. I'm also bringing my laptop with external speakers for tunes so if there is any particular music that you'd like to include bring a cd. Most of my stuff is older rock, blues type and also my complete collection of Britney Spears.
There's a well stocked convenience store in the retail area of the building so if we need something extra we should be able to get it quickly. And a grocery store about two blocks away.
That's about it for now. PM me with any questions. We are shooting for 6:00 to kick this thing off. I'll be sending out the address later today.

I'm also going to try (should be able) bring my LCD TV, so we can have the NFL games on. It's only 19 inches but is HD.

Pool table is booked. I can bring a couple cues if they don't have any good ones.

I think we are only going to come down for the day and head back. We have too much to do at home on Sunday.

There were pool cues, but can't remember condition. I remember there being tips on them.

I've sent everyone that has confirmed their attendance a PM with the address details and some other info as well. If you are coming and you don't have this info yet send me a PM ASAP and I'll be sure you have the information you'll need.

I don't want to sound impersonal at all so please don't take this the wrong way. If you're coming or think you might be able to make it even though you haven't confirmed, you need to let me know. The security at the building is pretty tight and if we're not expecting you it might require some explaining which I'd rather not have to do.
So, even if you think you might make it, let me know. The more, the merrier.
