Please count me in for Sat. Dinner

BayAreaKen — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 23:31:01 GMT

I'd love to hang out and have a burger at the Mandalay Bay with all my Bay Area friends (most of whom I've never met!).

I arrive tomorrow morning at 9:00am. Enjoy your night tonight.

@Netroots_Nation still says to RSVP

Garrett — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 21:49:48 GMT

So, in case it is needed, I am RSVPing.

Two more for Saturday dinner

I convinced my friend Andrew (a really fun and inspirational progressive economist) to join me for the road trip thanks to a NN ticket bought long ago at the cheapest price and a cheap room at the Gold Coast.

If anybody needs luggage driven back to avoid airline fees, let me know, we may have room for a few bags going back to the Bay Area, departing Saturday night, if we don't pick up carpoolers.

carpool from Berkeley this afternoon

raines — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 12:24:26 GMT

I'm driving after all, with a friend. 2 seats to fill. My username at the 3-letter fruity computer if interested.

I plan to go

Cali Scribe — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 18:38:41 GMT

Just got a call from smileycreek -- need space for her and the Mister. :)

I'm going too

jpmassar — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 18:37:42 GMT

If it's not too late (and I understand if it is...)

Malacandra — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:55:40 GMT

... I'd love to join y'all Saturday night.

I know I'm late...

Malacandra — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:52:17 GMT

... but I'll try to be there early. :)

One more for the Saturday lineup

Cali Scribe — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 16:33:16 GMT

May have to duck back to the Rio relatively early; flying back to SFO @ 9:30 am for family commitments. Then again, sleep is overrated, right? ;)

I meant the big table

kimoconnor — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 16:01:02 GMT

not the sat dinner, not sure if they can come to that yet.

Add me to the Saturday dinner

kimoconnor — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 16:00:32 GMT

I definitely want to eat something before the party so I don't end up like someone else who shall not be named who failed to eat last year!

Add two more to the table

kimoconnor — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 15:57:57 GMT

My friend Randy Lyman and one of his associates (they work for SEIU) will be there too this year!

anyone going Wednesday?

raines — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 14:33:34 GMT

I was going to drive and offer a carpool, but my better half wants the car this week - originally she was going to join me for the trip.

oke + rfall for Saturday

50/50 shot

SanDiegoDem — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 17:18:21 GMT

It all depends on what time I am able to leave San Diego for my drive in to Vegas & the drive itself, but I'm going to try!

No hotel shuttle

Cali Scribe — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 12:54:47 GMT

but I think it's Gray Line that does a shuttle run to all the hotels; if you go outside from the baggage claim there's a booth where you can buy ticket (I think it's about $12 one way, $20 round trip).

Here's the page on McCarran transportation options:

Jeff in CA and Mrs. Jeff in CA

Jeff in CA — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 23:37:04 GMT

will be landing at the Vegas airport about 6:30 pm. Is there a shuttle to the Rio? We can come on up to the buffet shortly after we check in. I imagine a bunch of you will still be there.

You are the best Neeta!

kimoconnor — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 18:08:37 GMT

I have some time right now, let me know if you need any help with something before we leave!

Bentliberal is looking for carpooling

navajo — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 06:03:07 GMT

navajo — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 06:01:01 GMT

High five on getting Markos to reply to your comment. huge lol.

Saturday Night

norm — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 00:23:29 GMT

It looks like with the schedule there is no time for dinner on Saturday night as we need to be at the party on time as they have a maximum occupancy as posted on DailyKos: http://www.dailykos.com/story/...

and I suspect most of us will want to stay to the end of Al Franken's closing speech. So I'd recommend making a grab and go plan for Saturday night. (I'll have a protein bar in my bag for that night, just in case. :) ). Someone should also advise uh . . . someone from last year to remember to eat during the day of the party. :)

And since I made reference I guess I must include a YouTube link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Whoops!

norm — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 00:19:02 GMT

Interfaith service must be taking into account people who are sleeping in with serious hangovers! Not until 9-10 P.M.?!

But I thought it was July!

Cali Scribe — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 05:06:54 GMT

;)

So I don't see any capools yet

LaughingPlanet — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 00:25:24 GMT

Is there anyone out there who is driving? It's not a very long trip.

I'd offer my crappy vehicle but with no A/C, it seems like a bad idea, at best.

I wasn't planning to go until today. Funny that the part I thought was the easiest (transport) might be the sticking point.
