Have you ever considered taking advice from a psychiatrist Spendius?

I did once but I thought it unfair on the trick-cyclist to introduce him to himself.

<AHEM>

You may now move me from the "Probably" to the "Definite" list. I got the final go-ahead last night and I have just made my air & hotel reservations. Will post particulars on the "facts" thread.

Woo hoo! I can't wait!

C'mon, you guys....the more the merrier!

Got my 'official hotel voucher' yesterday as well (although the reservation was already confirmed in November):
"One single [sic!] King Deluxe Room (with spectacular views of Lake Michigan and Grant Park)"

I'm getting a bit exciting now, too Laughing

Awesome news, Eva and Walter! I'll likely drive to Chicago, but cab thereafter. The consensus seems to be that cars are a waste of time and money in this city.

Now set in stone: At the very least, O'bill, Walter, Brooklyn, C.I., RJB, Thomas, Hephzibah, Mac11, Eva and Joe will be at Duke of Perth at 6:30 on Friday, May 5th! We'll be enjoying a Fish Fry and drinks. All are welcome. Did I miss anyone?

Brooklyn, you weren't supposed to tell everyone about the naked dancing... :wink:

No, that's my anniversary and Mr B probably wouldn't appreciate getting ditched. I'm meeting a group Saturday morning at the Art Institute and then I'll come back out and meet up with anyone who wants to do something for lunch.

Then I'll most likely meet you Saturday morning. I'd like to join the group there. The Art Institute is a must-see for me.

I SURE hope somebody brings nametags so we can put our real names along with our A2K names on them. I'll never keep it all straight otherwise! Not in a group this large...what is it, 14 or 15 of us now?

Eva, Don´t feel like you´re alone on names. BIG nametags should be a must. I´m in trouble after the first name.

I guess so!

Does this mean you could be persuaded to join us, Francis?

O'Bill, one word about driving to Chicago -- an unpleasant surprise for us was that we had to pay a LOT (I forget, maybe $40?) a day just to keep the car at the hotel's parking lot. Not getting it or anything, just leaving it there. So maybe something to check just so you know what to expect.

Good lookin out, Soz. For that kind of cash; maybe I'll park in milwaukee and take a short flight after all. Fingers crossed on Soz and Francis!

Looks like it's $20/day at our hotel, OBill.
