Have room for one more ? I'd be coming from Connecticut, and would more then likely just take a few days off of work just to meet up and BS with you all. I think we would have a GREAT time !! The only thing is I'm currently "Rolexless". I still have an Omega I could wear though :)

Any updates on this meeting (time, etc.) ? I'll be coming from about 900 miles away (it will take me approx 14 hours and change to drive there from CT. So, is there any decent hotels in the area ?
Any help would be great (trying to fit this in my schedule. I'll probably take the 13, 14, and 15 off of work, and return to work on the 16th.)

not me, but Stan and Fred control the vertical and horizontal...do not adjust your TV set!
I'm sure they'll set us all straight soon.

OK here we go:

I will pick up Dan from the airport before 8:00 AM and after he checked in his hotel we will meet with Mike and Stan and who ever is here for a later breakfast and some Louisville tour! Who ever is coming to the airport will get picked up somehow and later on we will meet at 4:00 PM Merkley Kendrick Jewelers and later we will eat some more!!!

When do you plan on being here Mr. Dan

Fred -
PM replied to, and thanks for all your help my friend I'm VERY much looking forward to meeting all of you as well. Heck, I figure I'm on TRF EVERY night, and I interact with some of you more then my "live" family lol So, I figure why not take the time out and meet you all in person !
See everyone soon (marks my calendar).
