Ginger, I found this same place in a web search yesterday. Thought it looked interesting. Perfect kind place for online friends to meet I think. I'm game.

Sounds like fun to me. Just let me know what time. Not sure how comfy/cozy it will be, but maybe we can even post a group message on TVCH while we're there!

Hey, all! There are still tickets for the Radio City music hall Christmas extravaganza. Friday and Saturday morning, afternoon and evening. Anyone game?

I think a 3:30 or 4pm meeting time at the cybercafe would work. Ginger could make it by then. What do you think?

WHOO HOO! Now, if I could only grade this last flight bag full of finals and papers and get my grades turned in....

See y'all soon!

I am definitely not interested in the Radio City thing, so maybe you could do that on Saturday?

I can be there by around 4 at the Cybercafe on Friday. If anybody has any better ideas of someplace, I am game for that too. Yankee, if you can find a place that is cozy, then let's go there. I have so much work, that I haven't had time to investigate to much.

Let me know.

Ginger...I think that we are planning on a REAL show with you on Friday night. You have seen Wicked? If not, that is our pick for Friday...if you've seen it, we'll go on Saturday.

We'll look for you at 4ish at the CYBERCAFE!

Whoo Hoo!

The co-worker I work with most gave me the soundtrack for Wicked today as a Christmas gift so I can listen to it on the way down to the city tommorrow. How great is that!?

I couldn't wait and am listening to it right now. It sounds great and I really really want to see this show!

HELP! LOL, I'm trying to reserve a parking space and I can't seem to find one that will take my van any where near the theater district. Does anyone have any suggestions?

SS...There is an open parking lot in Hell's Kitchen that will take a van for $25 per day. It's on 9th or 10th street in the 40s. This is where the double decker tour busses go at night. There is a gas station near it. Wish I could remember which block it's in. There is another garage near the Theater district that will charge an arm and a leg. There are only two that take vans in the Times Square area.

Okay Marm. I'm packing. I'm not planning on bringing anything dressy. It will be too weathery for that. Let me know if I should toss something less casual into the suitcase.

Good Morning, I'm heading to NYC right now. My reservation is from 2PM-5PM at a parking ramp. We intend to take a cab from the ramp to Broadway and hopefully meet up with everyone at the Cyber Cafe.

Pray for good weather and no police patrols! LOL!

Love ya ALL!

I may be able to be there earlier. So, I may get there around 3:30. Or somewhere around that time.

We are at the cybercafe already!

Been having a great time. Yesterday I went to see the Lord of the Rings at the Loews theater on 42nd Street. I cried a lot. Loved this movie. And it was nice to see it with a NYC crowd. Next I got discount tickets to see 42nd Street. Tap dancing and singing galore. What fun!

Twinkie, before you ask, I did see the naked cowboy last night. (No pictures of HIM yet.) He is sporting red undies for the holidays.

Met up with Marm and the hotel, lots of catching up then early to bed (for me) and then up bright and early this morning.

We headed over to The CBS Morning Show were we got to say hello to Harry Smith again, got to say hello to and take of picture of Chef Bobby Flay, and get on camera when Dave Price did the weather update on the plaza at 8 am.

Oh and we saw someone else today who was on the Morning Show. Who was that again Marm? She's sitting right next to me at the cybercafe. (Jmm, she's on the left).

Oh heck she beat me to it!!
