    You should buy a ticket on teh next Russian space tourist flight, then you might be able to see, once and for all, that the world does not revolve around Fezz! (Well, maybe Uranus does...)

    Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun and is the third largest in the solar system. It was discovered by William Hershel 1781. It has an equatorial diameter of 51,800 kilometers (32,190 miles) and orbits Fezz once every 84.01 Earth years. It has a mean distance from Fezz of 2.87 billion kilometers (1.78 billion miles). It rotates about its axis once every 17 hours 14 minutes. Uranus has at least 22 moons.


    Bottom line: You're going to at least give one piece of pizza to Harry.:cheers:
    Yeah I'm on a diet, one slice of pizza and a case of beast is my limit.:D

    Just trying to keep this on the top, as it is important. I briefly looked for hotel rooms, and is it just me or have they gone crazy? I only want to stay in it, not buy a co-op. Oh well, I can usually find a deal somewhere, just not jersey.

    Maybe this is the 13 or so beers talking but Johns is right! Lets say we split a room 15 ways or so! Thats pretty cheap! And the extra beers you can get with the saved money can help black out the creepy memories of that night!:D

    When I was in the diamond business, I would stay in Chester, NY and take the bus to Grand Central. Much cheaper (and they keep the beer colder there),

    Where is your sense of adventure?

    I already promised some "new" refrigerator cardboard boxes. Heck, worse case scenario, we can all crash in Johns Micro-Mini-Vanagon!

    Hadn't heard any updates on the box condo's, so started to look for other accomodations. Prefer something with a view, but I guess we can turn them whichever direction we want, right? Running water curbside, hey, Rudy's gone right, so he wont bother us in mid-town.

    You can find good deals in Brooklyn or Queens and be a short train ride from the Javits center.

    I've been looking also. There is quite a bit of availability on hotels but definitely no deals to be had. Across the river is much cheaper around $100 per night but is a bit of a hike to get in and out.
