    What day are you all going to be showing up. I am debating on when I really need to get there. Is getting there Wednesday the 27th really necessary? Is anything going on then or even Thursday not counting the movie showing. My friend and I are arguing whether to get there Wednesday or Thursday.

    I'm getting in Thursday noonish. Hopefully I'll have more than enough time to get settled before the pickup and movie madness starts.

    I’m scheduled to land Wednesday night at 10pm-ish EST. If possible I might stop to pick up supplies (alcohol) on the way to the hotel in an attempt to buy my way into The International Party Room.

    Supposed to be landing Thursday around 3 pm.

    Hopefully it won't be too horribly delayed, so I can be there at 4:30.

    I arrive at about 1pm on the 27th. This should give me time to go toy shopping in places like Target & TRU (and get the movie toys at about half the price they are in the UK ;)  )
    I'd say you don't have to. But the booze would be nice :)

    I arrive Wednesday June 27th at IIRC 9:40pm thus I'd probably get to the Westin at 10pm or so

    I guess that’s not so bad. It’s less to two hours. I just hope he takes his meds, I don’t want to be a repeat of the insolent.

    Actually I'm impressed you 3 managed to get on the same flight like that. You and Razerwire I can get since you both are in California. But getting RHansen who's north of the border is impressive to me. Was it by luck or did you 3 actually work it out like that?

    Both in the Bay Area, REPRESENT! (Imagine I’m throwing up some sort of gang signs.)

    But we are not sitting together. And I had nothing to do with working anything out with RHansen.

    RHansen was my fault. We need to bring a straight jacket and use multiple seat belts to tie his ass down to the seat.
