So what room are we in?

selvalee · March 30, 2008, 12:15 AM

no one ever shares a room with me,,
did I mention, I like organic beans and rice with collard greens on the side?
onions, to spice it up!
as I said, for some reason, no one ever rooms with me or sits beside me,,,,so lonely

I don't know the room number yet. They might let us bring in a roll a way bed for a third person, or you can share a bed with Tony.

I would offer as well, but I got the Jimmy legs.

rgfloor · March 30, 2008, 06:42 PM

My suggestion: a couple of pastry trays for the morning break, coffee and water

Deluxe box lunch at noon: have them make an assortment if possible or a sandwich platter. That way there is something for everyones taste.

Pizza for Saturday sounds good.

I am assumming we will all be going out for a good meal in the evening so this just takes the edge off, i can do anything if I know that steak is coming in the evening.

rusty baker · March 30, 2008, 06:49 PM

I agree with RG.

Chris Mha · March 30, 2008, 07:28 PM

I agree with RG and Rusty. Lots of coffee. There is a Starbucks right up the street. Roger if you want a good steak dinner have I got the place for you. Tandy, What was the name of that Lebanese steak house? What a meal they put on there.

Tandy Reeves · March 30, 2008, 07:36 PM

The Silver Flame located 61st and Sheridan.

selvalee · March 30, 2008, 09:08 PM

Tandy,
is there an organic cafe near where I can have my rice and beans? with collards or mustard greens? cornbread and onion?

ok, Serious, I prefer a good whole wheat veggie or turkey,,,,
I will be there on Saturday, arriving Friday night,,,
will send check, tell me where,
heck, I might just bring my own wrap,,,,
slt

Dan Schultz · March 31, 2008, 04:36 AM

I too, like RG's idea.

Bill Watson · March 31, 2008, 02:55 PM

I plan on attending, and will pay when I get there since it seems that is OKAY with Tandy.
RG's chow suggestion sounds good to me too.

Taxes got me pretty bad this year. Not enough time to recover. About 18 days ago the price was 455 for flight & hotel and now it's 655 and climbing. Plus was laid off for 7 days and having some short weeks. One of the worst things about working for someone else is you never know whats ahead. We never know from one day to the next. We usually get a call around 3 to 5pm about work the next day.
Any chance I can get my 70 back? If not I understand.
Thanks
