Tom, eek, the Ritz Carlton and buying drinks for this group of lushes (just kidding, guys)! My Inner Grandma is worried you'll spend it all in one place. My Outer Devil thinks, enjoy! enjoy! enjoy!

I can't make it that evening but I know you all will have an outrageous time. Be good or very, very bad.

So did we decide on 6:30 or earlier?

thereyet - Lets see how we survive dinner first, then maybe a night cap. I look forward to talking music with you.


Leey2 - No worries about the $$$, the settlement was HUGE!!!! Besides, I have always wanted try 'puttin on the Ritz.'


Tom

Thanks Paula and Faina. I will see how things go, and see if anyone from San Jose posts with a ride offer. :-)

Oh, and by the way, I will have my camera with me. So do behave or I will post all the embarassing photos all over the internet :-d

I can't wait for this. It is going to be a blast!!

Tom

Tom, I'll bring the pocket collection...160gb Ipod vid so you can browse. :) You can do the same?

<<So did we decide on 6:30 or earlier?>>

Hi Paula, that sounds good but will need to know when i call again.

There is a nice little lounge up front for those who want to get there early.

"Faina's drunken celebration plans..." - yes, and I will make you to participate :))

"do behave or I will post all the embarassing photos all over the internet" - hey, don't kill our fun! we all love embarassing pictures ;)

So... who can get in at what time? I work till 5, can be there at 5.30 :))

Is 6.30 too early for anybody?

I'm soo excited!

Faina -- could you please change me from Maybe to Yes, my good friend visiting from overseas can only meet for a quick afternoon tea.

LoveItaly and thereyet -- you think I can survive on rice and tea? Those were the times when I was living in China, malnourished and under 100 lbs. I'll consume anything edible once in my life as long as it's mild and not spicy, there are enough of them can choose from at the restaurant.

Thanks to Faina for passing the 200 mark, and can't wait to meet everyone!

ThereYet, it was NOT ME going around with a notepad, good grief :))

WAIT A MOMENT!!

We need a volunteer to get goodies from Katie. Sorry I can't, UPS problems - can't have delivery at work.

Hi All,
From Google maps Street view, there appears to be a large Public Parking garage right next door
to Henry's. As you face the restaurant, pan to the right
along the street and you will see it. If you pan to the left,you will see a ramp and a parking pad-don't know if this is owned by Henry's or not.

Razzles, are you coming? I'd love to see you again! :*

there are 2 parking places on sansome not far from henry hunans.
there are also assorted lots on montgomery and broadway.
of course if you can find street parking, you have hit the jackpot!

Hi Faina, normally I would be glad to have Katie send me the goodies as she has done at least once in the past but since at this point I don't know if I will be joining all of you or not..well that wouldn't be a good idea.

thereyet said he would write Katie back on the 22nd.

Tom

<<thereyet said he would write Katie back on the 22nd>>

Done! We will see, what will be, in the way of free, from Katie!

Shanghainese - if you would, please pop me an email at juno dot com.

Hi all, I will know for sure on the 16th. Will have results on a medical issue.
Roger, from the North Coast.
