Are we going to have to wait for him?
Har-har-hardee-har-har.

Wait for me... Why I oughta!! :D

Okeedoke. We're on for the 19th. But the show doesn't start til 2:00 pm. I say we meet at O'Farrell's prior to the event. Go to the show and then convene to a convenient venue thereafter for post-show victuals and libations. I will be consulting with O'Snoone and O'Bachorz on ye appropriate NYC joint. This might be a job for Uncle Nick's or El Quijote... (considering the potential size of this partay).

This gon' be fun! :hungover
 
Thank you

Thank you Mr. Tessler. This may be the first "rally" in the middle of a city. Camping probably not a good idea. :ha
New York - so nice they named it twice! :brow

Should we get a t-shirt done?

The mini-rally. Make it an annual thing. The 2006 Gather in Gotham. Ain't much else going on in January. I would like a t-shirt or....a sweatshirt since it is January.

If this weather continues....we may wear shorts to the show.
I'll have some in my side case, right next to the wool underoos; but no you can't share either, as if it hasn't been jinxed!, I'll be wearing the former and you wouldn't want the sweaty from the road latter.
Regardless, I think we should get our rally T-shirts early this year. Or maybe Tessler will come up with a new Limited Edition NYC design for all those who ride in. :lurk

There might be if you write it. :stick


I was going to see if I could find a non-member's wife at the show and see if she would write it so we would have something to cry about here when winter arrives. :ha

If you have enough memory/tape on your recorder can you record the sound of Tessler putting on his gloves?

Tape would self destruct before that monumental event could ever be recorded or your hair would turn grey or if it is grey it would fall out waiting.

We get free (or at least discounted) admission to the show for being members, right? :D


Sure you do. :D

Just show your full price ticket at the door for special admission consideration to the show. For those who haven't been there before, the Javits Center doesn't give ANYTHING away for free (attitude not included). :doh
