2007 NY MartialTalk Meet & Greet

[Carol]

I spoke too soon I found 2 other hotels within walking distance of the Residence that still have smoking rooms and are a whole lot cheaper..SO I can hang with all you people at night and stagger back to my hotel when the party ends...

Sounds like a plan Drac!


OK...that means I have TWO rooms reserved.

One for Hong Kong Fooey...and two more for..... ????

Whose going to be the ones?

The availability at the hotel is changing quickly.

 

[MBuzzy]

YO! Oh wait.....I already have one......I really just kind of wanted to say yo.




Sorry about that. I'll try to restrain myself.

EDIT - You took out the thing about the Yo! My joke doesn't make sense anymore.....sigh. I'm always a step behind.

 

[LawDog]

I have to be at two other events the same month. I will be attending as long as the other two events do not over lap this one. I will know for sure in a week.
:ultracool

I didn't take it out. its just a couple posts up

 

[Carol]

OK...what I've done....

The Marriott will allow booking up to 9 rooms through their web site.

I've gone ahead and booked the maximum of nine.

Four are spoken for, that means five are available for the next few folks that say YO!

 

[Carol]

TShadowchaser, Brian, Exile, Kreth, and Morph4me have all been PMed to see if they want to place dibs on the remaining rooms.

That's one of the places I also looked at..There are 2 more nearer the Residence Inn where the others are staying..

 

[Bob Hubbard]

The location will be Horizon Martial Arts, http://horizonma.com

We used to use the Hampton but this year their rates were to high.


I'll be updating the lead post tonight with updated info, including the mat fees.

Sorry this is so sporadic, just a busy week so far.

Oh! And Drac? My response will remain at:

I can't help myself sometimes...

What if I promise to stay on my side of the room???

Seriously Drac... If you choose to dress in drag on a regular basis, at least pick something that isn't tacky! And no- you can't sleep in another part of the room!

You have got that totally, utterly RIGHT, Dan!!

:highfive:

 

[terryl965]

Come on a matt fee, is it not OK if we just check in after all since we are spending thousand of dollars drinking while we are there!!!!!! Not to mention rooms a little food and travel expenses, we need that thirty dollars to do more drinking work on it Bob.

 

[LawDog]

I just want to meet with everyone and have a good time. Working out I do four - five days a week.
