Because the creep wanted to go to Aruba instead. Can you imagine that??? [/b][/quote]Yeah, and how about that MaryCas guy? Sacrificing a night with us just to go to his daughter's wedding. Who does he think that he is?


Don Cardi

We may merge the two..... our dignified hangovers might be tempered by a road trip to Danny Aiello's house in Jersey where we'll camp out on his lawn until he answers that question.

Congratulations on your good news! You gotta post a pic or two of the bride with daddy!

Well I made it to my daughters house in VA (thank God). What a long 9 1/2 hours. :rolleyes:

Mary Cas,
Congrats on your daughters wedding. I bet you are a proud daddy.

That's way down there, past Atlantic City. Maybe Plaw will be there on the beach with Flopsie & Mopsie?

Congratulations, Father-of-the-Bride.

May the newlyweds have good health ("the most important thing"), happiness, and prosperity.

And maybe one of these days you'll make it to one of our little get-togethers. :p

That's way down there, past Atlantic City. Maybe Plaw will be there on the beach with Flopsie & Mopsie? [/b][/quote]Nah, Flopsie & Mopsie are strictly Vegas girls.

And when I go to the beach, it's usually Sandy Hook.

I can't quite picture you at a nude beach. At least I don't want to (nothing personal :p ) unless you bring Flopsie & Mopsie with you...

They have a nude beach at Sandy Hook?

I didn't know that.....

I really am looking forward to this weekend. Who is coming on friday?


DS

Anyone have a tentitive schedule for Saturday yet, maybe where I can meet you animals?

What time are you getting there DMC. Some of us are going to godfather house and some are going to the horse races. What are you planning to do?


DS

Godfather house definitly

Neither I (plaw) nor my fiance like the track etc...

Well, after we hit Sandy Hook in the morning after breakfast...

I figured we'd play it by ear, and decide when to hit the Corleone Compound. See if/when those guys go to the track to see if we'll be having lunch together or separately... You can always call and find out - or PM me yours and I could let you know when we figure it out...

Smitty - I'll be there tomorrow afternoon, around 4-5ish. I suppose we could meet in the lounge area after we get settled in, to discuss the logistics of getting to Edison.

Which reminds me, I better print out some maps.

But I assume we'd meet at the hotel regardless. Are you (DMC) staying Friday night as well, or just Saturday?

who else would you be talking to

No I'm only staying Saturday night, but I'll be getting to the area around 12/1 p.m.

Well actually I think that the first race ( for those interested in going to the track ) is 11:30am on Saturday. So I would think that those going to the track should leave by 10:30am if they want to make the first race.


Don Cardi

ok well then let me know what time people are leaving to go to the Godfather house, I will also let you guys know what I will be wearing (outside only :p ) so incase I don't recognize you you can recognize me.

I was making fun of "Neither I (plaw) nor..." :p

If you're getting in around 12-1PM, I guess we'll wait for you. Don't dawdle. :p

How am I supposed to recognize you if you're dressed? :p

How am I supposed to recognize you if you're dressed? :p [/b][/quote] I'm at work or I could say something lol

If you guys are leaving earlier then we can get there earlier, thats no problem.

11ish?

Earlier may be better - but again, I wanna see when those guys hit the track and figure it out from there...

I gotta do some errands -- I'll be back later.

ok go do your "errands"

so when you are done cleaning up we'll talk.

I would say 10:30 would probably be the earliest, my girlfriend works a lot of hours and since it's one of her days off I don't want to force her to lose any sleep.

Good luck DC. Where ya going Monmouth? Years ago at that track you could tell the fix was in in races where a jockey would raise his whip near a particular furlong post.

I am leaving Newport News about 7am so depending on traffic and if there is any construction headaches I'm hoping to be there about 3/3:30. Remind me when and where at the hotel we are going to meet.

Hey Don Smitty where are you going Saturday?

Good luck DC. Where ya going Monmouth? Years ago at that track you could tell the fix was in in races where a jockey would raise his whip near a particular furlong post. [/QB][/QUOTE]

I believe that SC said Monmouth.

Thanks for the tip Don T, I'll keep my eyes wide open for any raised whips!


Don Cardi

Actually the first race at Monmout starts at 1:15 PM. Not 11:30 Like I originally posted.

Don Cardi

You should be arriving a few hours before that (assuming no major delays). I expect Lori and I will be there about 4-5:00 but some others may be earlier. Try looking in the lounge (just off the lobby) to see if any of us are in there. I'll PM you my cell number if you need. Also, you can ask at the front desk if anyone else has arrived yet.

BTW, Mig, the weather forecast looks fairly good. Tom'w is still gonna be hot and humid (mid 90's) but thunderstorms are expected to cool everything down for Saturday and Sunday (mid 80's and less humid).

Thanks for the update SC. Go ahead and PM me your cell# please thanks.

Migs - I'll call you when I'm settled in; feel free to do the same... I'll be arriving around the same time (or hopefully a bit earlier) as SC and L...
