    Keeping my fingers crossed that our travel tomorrow remains SEA -> LAX ... and doesn't become SEA -> LHR -> DUB.

    I plan to show up around 9am. Who's willing to help me unload from my car? Plus where can I unload as close to our area?

    I would caution against expecting too much from In-N-Out. It's better than McDonald's for sure but not life altering like a lot of Californians make it out to be. I also recommend asking for no salt in your patty, it made me not hate their food after the second time I ate there.

    I won't be able to make it this round, so I'm looking forward to that gorgeous write-up.

    I'm all set. Stupid Utopia headphones made me miss my Southwest check in.

    I just received some loaner Utopia's from TTVJ. I was in the process of checking in, but I was 5 minutes early. I thought I would open the box. I got so distracted I totally missed checking in and winning an "A" ticket! Now I'm B52 :-(

    Good thing we all land at the same time.

    See you all tomorrow night. I land at 7:30p. I'll have the Utopia and the loaner Jot/HD650, my PMx2, and my son's Code-x. I'll also bring a Modi Multibit, and I will set it up in my room for my son to listen to before the meet, but if anyone else wants to listen, just let me know. I'll return the jot/HD650 on Saturday. Marv, if you want to set it up Saturaday with my Modi Multibit, you are welcome too.

    Oh, Rynsin is also in LA (from Boston), and will join us Friday night and Saturday too (he's ticketed).

    Was hoping I could "park" the car close to the entrance and help unload onto the rollie cart. Helpful person can watch the cart while I go find parking.

    Mine's packed ... so is the girlie's.

    They're definitely getting worn at some point ... and as long as it's a cult I look like Im part of, that I can deal with.

    The only question remaining now is which flight out of Seattle we're getting on - Virgin or British. I'm fairly certain that, if it's the BA flight we have to take, we're going to have a very hard time explaining the T-Shirts at dinner ...

    Wish I still lived in L.A. and could make it. Time heals all wounds...sometimes I even miss the drive from Calabasas to Torrance. I spent so much dead time on those f'ing freeways :).

    I'm hopeful to attend next year! I was just in Orange County for an interview and it's looking like I may be hired. I'm looking forward to meeting you at mini-meets till then!

    Anyone interested in the early morning breakfast at Denny's, lets plan on meeting there at 8AM.

    If anyone wants my cell number to coordinate, PM me and I'll send it.

    The Denny's is located at 5535 W Century Blvd (approx. 3 blocks from the LAX Hilton).

    For true local color (and its not walkable exactly from the hotel), you guys can try Roscoe's Waffles and Chicken on W. Manchester.
