I am in. Wouldn't miss it.

I will definitely be there! Wahoo! Can't wait!

And this year, I won't forget my walking shoes!!! I will also spend more time at a pool somewhere. It gets so **** hot there!

Where is everyone planning on staying? I'd like to stay close and/or in the same hotel as everyone so we can hang out and party til the wee hours.

Wow. It's getting close Rikki!! My how time just flies. Like most of America right now, times are tight. 4$ a gallon for gas here right now!!! FOUR FRIGGEN DOLLARS A GALLON!!! ok don't get me started. Especially for me going to school last semester to raise my GPA and studying for the MCAT reallllly set me back. I just got a job about 2 months ago as a software architect for a medical company so I am basically getting back on my feet again.

That being said how about we change the dates a little to during the week so prices will be better? Say June 23 (Monday) - June 26 (Wednesday)? If it's to hard I will make the original dates work for myself and the group.

It's up to you guys and gals but I am thinking about getting a room similar to last year and would love it if we all just crashed in the same room. I don't mind sleeping on the floor, a couch or a cot.

So I guess my questions are, whose still in, and who wants to bunk up in a sick suite so we can spend the whole time hanging out together? I still stay in touch with the girl I met out there last time so if we aren't going to do a group room (for a group room we could do 4 people very comfortably, but heck I don't care if we do 9. As long as I have a place to crash I am happy) I may crash with her since she is by the strip and it wont cost me anything, other then I would have to spend some time with her, but I can see her anytime and want to spend all my time with the group. We dont always have to be in the room obviously I just think it's a good idea so we stay centralized and I don't get sucked in by the other guilty sins vegas has to offer lol.

I am sure I can get my contact at Paris to throw in some show tickets for us. I told her what we were doing there and somehow ended up with a visa giftcard for 500$ that can only be spent at a Paris/Harrah's hotel and am happy to put that towards some meals for us there, or just put it towards the room, etc.. The contact there was really really cool with adjusting prices and accommodating what we were doing there.

Kev I know you have myrtle beach too, but man it would be great if you could hang with us again. I feel really bad about flaking on golf with you too. Somehow I think you understand though having met Katie . I am merely a man. It wouldn't be the same without you.

Looks like I'm going on my own. It also looks like I'm going to drive there. Taking my new convertible on a road trip, woohoo!

My plan is to arrive there on Sunday and stay until Thursday or Friday. I can stay with you, Brian, for whatever days you are there and can find my own room for any extra days that I'm there. I don't need to stay on the strip when the rest of you might not be there. I have points saved up with the Choice Hotels, so I can stay off-strip at the Comfort Inn for a couple of the days. But, I would definitely like to stay more cheaply there if at all possible, so sharing a room would be good for me.

I'm so ready for this vacation!

Okay, I've talked with Dewey and it looks like she and Carwy won't be able to make it this year.

My family can't go, I still can. Is anyone else planning to go, or should I go and do something else that week?
