Well, since my vids didn't make it into the semi finals, I guess if it's alright, I'll bring my AMV entries on CD for all to see.

I hope I can get free parking like last year, since I didn't have to pay a dime for it all 4 days... 8)

The rest of it sounds good though. Gotta' remember to get enough cash before we go... See you all at the hotel. :)
Spaghetti Marinara is just a tomato sauce, there is no meat in it. To my knowledge teh stuffed shells stuffed with cheese (I could be mistaken on that) so at least those two dishes should be ok and I don't see why they couldn't make just a cheese pizza. I tried to compensate for varying tastes when I set up the menu.

I understand, it's cool. I think the stuffed shells are probably just cheese too, and I guess we'll see about the pizza and stuff, but it should be fine. It's not as simple as a "varying tastes" thing though...it's more like an alergy or somethin'. If you're a vegetarian, you just don't eat meat. Ever. ;) We're used to having less choices than this when someone else sets the menu though, so really, it's a'right. :)

I agree with Castor, 2002 was a complete disaster all around but as of last year and hopefullyt his year AX has redeamed itself in my book. I think they realized taht 2002 was a terrible fiasco that left a bad taste in most of the con goer's mouths. Organization, lines, effiency, all around AX has improved by scores.

This is the final reminder before the gathering at AX so I'm dropping it by now before teh majority of those flying or driving get on their way (I know a few leaving tommorow).

Place: Buca di Beppo (Approx four minutes drive from the convention center)
Price: $28 flat charge, slightly more if you want alcohol.
Meeting: Everyone meets 6:30 in the Hilton Lobby to give me their money and so we can work out who rides with who since not everyone has a car. When you get down there look for a guy with long hair and either in a long black coat or a cowboy duster, odds are, it's me.
Reservation: 7:00 PM (giving us half an horu to work otu rides, collect money and get going).

I think that should clarify everything. See you all there.
