[Squishy] Re: Vegas - act fast!

[Jonathan Jaffe]

It sounds like the weekend of the 24th to 26th is best. Personally, I prefer
a nicer hotel. I had a shit one last summer and then I had the benefit of
staying at the hard rock with jeff and jenny. I suggest the nicer ones. They
have rooms that actually fit both you and your toothpaste. Something in the
center is good, too, for the convenience of needing to stop off and get
replenished. NY, NY, Luxor, Aladin, Bellagio, etc.

I'm also up for shows and this may be a way to get Re to come along. I vote
for any of the shows Jeff can get us good seats at. I also wouldn't mind
seeing de la guarda again, but Knoa may not be so good at that one.

Be aware that weekend are notoriously expensive, of course. Let's all take
Friday to find some good fares and hotel rates and report back, then book
them this weekend.
