The "Who WILL attend TAM2" thread

I've paid for everything but registration...but expect to do it before the price increase. OUCH! I can't afford the dinner with Randi:(
Sure I'd just sit there and not eat anything saying, "WOW! It's Randi! He's my hero! sigh...."
I'd even wear heels and a slit skirt.
But, it's just a dream

I'm trying to talk Pool Boy into the Penn and Teller show. If he can spring for one ticket can I hitch a ride with someone?


Hey, I'm lucky I got the frequent flyer miles to go to Vegas.

Well, I can't do the dinner either... :(

But, hey, kitty... I say we launch a diversionary tactic! Have ALL of the skepchicks wear heels, slit skirts, boots, fishnets, whatever will get a guy's attention and GO FOR IT!! I say we ambush Randi! :D

What say you? I'm down for the plan and can be VERY evil for a good cause! ;)

Be sure to coordinate with Lisa, G6.

And now that I've moved some money around, I just gotta send everything in and get the tickets & hotel room reserved and I'll be there.
 
totally! I have to get some "elf shoes", they are big in Europe and look like they hurt to wear, but guys love them. Then we ambush Randi for our own private "dinner" with him. We need Linda to get a certificate from his cariologist before hand though. Boo has to come as she can do CPR. Really, he could walk into a restaurant with ALL of us dressed to kill. Everyone in Vegas would wonder who he was!

Hate to burst your bubble, but I think this kind of thing happens most every day in Vegas. Or at least often enough where people aren't gonna raise an eyebrow to find out what all the hub-bub is all about.

I could be wrong, though.

You're not. More outrageous thing than that go on all the time. It's the order of the day (and night) in Vegas.

Ehhh... I'm not going to concern myself with what anyone else is thinking! I want my face time with Randi! And, I will do what it takes to get it! :D

What is the "Thurday workshop" all about? What things are in the "course materials"? Should I check the box on the registration form, or save my money for the 'Best of Alf' DVD box set?
 
Welcome, Chaon! Wow, we'll have a visitor from Taiwan?? Mighty cool!

About the workshop - if you can afford it, don't miss the opportunity. From what I've read in the description, it must be very interesting. I liked the part about "being able to discern deception from test-takers", or something like that.

As for me... I'm saving money like crazy! Ok, youknow from another thread that I bought a new dress but that's about it! :D I also have to see if I can get vacation on that period. This time I'll be bringing my boyfriend along.
 
It's official. I registered for TAM2 today, and made my reservations with the Tuscany.

Do not be surprised if you have to make two reservations with the hotel (as I did). I am planning on arriving a few days early, so I had to make one reservation as an ordinary schmuck for the first few days, and a separate reservation as an attendee of TAM2.

Now I have to get my plane tickets, and I have to decide whether or not to rent a car.
 
I will be there. I look forward to some long-overdue shaking of hands.

I looked into staying in another hotel if I arrived a few days earlier. Large Vegas hotels on the strip routinely have midweek sales, and I found prices at 3 and 4 star hotels on the strip for about $39-69, which was cheaper than the pre conference Tuscany rates. And then moving to Tuscany for the conference, because it is easier to be with the group, because they reserved a block of rooms for TAM, and, frankly, the rates are very good compared with other Vegas weekend rates. Moving hotels is a bit of a hassle, but I am driving in, so not too much of a trouble for me, and if I recall the rate difference was substantial. It is really only worth it if you want to try out the other hotels, and if you arrive 3-4 days earlier.
 
The Tuscany is right around the corner from my apartment. Of course I'm going to be there!
 
I realize that this is a minor hijack, but there is a question I've been meaning to ask Moe for awhile now.

Is your parrot holding a cigarette?

Yes, well, not a real one. It's a trick fake one that you can find in any magic shop (minus the talcum powder filling).
Don't give a bird a real cigarette, the nicotine can kill them.
He's a smokin' parrot. Just like the real Mr Mason, his namesake.

I can fit all of 5 people, standing room only. I think we'd have better luck elsewhere. :)

And just that easily my heart is ripped from within me, my soul cast adrift.

My only consolations are that I will not be able to attend TAM2 to witness this horror, and the lonely, broken bits of my ego will soon be joined by the detritus of a hundred other skepdudes.

And my beer. Beer is consolation.

Crap, I'm in Iraq...

I am inconsolable.
