    Anyone in the NYC area interested in some kind of get together in Manhattan within in the next couple of weeks? I was thinking it might be cool to get together for beers, maybe a movie (I am paricularly interested in either Catwoman - can't beat Halle Berry in black PVC and heels - or the Chronicles of Riddick). Any other suggestions are most welcome, I have no idea how we go about organizing something like this. I work right near where the WTC towers were, any place around Manhattan would be great. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

      Yeah, but I bet if you are careful, don't tell anyone you're from NJ, I bet nobody will findn out and you'll be all right. Don't wear any NJ pro sports team apparel, though. :-D "Fish and guests stink in three days." - Benjamin Franlkin

        C'mon!, that's nothing, why when *I* was a boy, I used to walk 15 hours, each way, up hill, in -40 degree weather, against the wind, until I would pass out from exhaustion and forget where I was going to (that was the excuse I always gave for my poor attendance at school, never really seemed to work though). :) ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

          If we have people from out of state, when would be a good time? Say mid June, to give people time to plan? Sooner? Later? Fri, Sat, or Sun? Beer, no beer, fast women, no fast women (apoligies to anyone's sister out there that I haven't managed to offend so far)? ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

My son finishes school on the 11th, so any time after that is cool. Sat or Sun is preferable, so as not to deal with weekday (especially Friday) traffic. BTW, want to set up a meetup[^]?

                                    Heh, I like the 1600 mile stretch that only requires merging, not actual turns. Clearly I spend too much time in Seattle, I could actually picture the route for the first 8 steps of the trip. David
