Manic Moran Posted August 23, 2001 Posted August 23, 2001 Depends on what time you're arriving in Oakland really... Getting to SFO isn't actually all that difficult by public transport, (Bus to BART, BART to SF City, bus or Caltrain to airport, shuttle to hotel) though if you're the impatient sort, I really wouldn't try it. I think I'm working on the East side of the bay that week, I might be able to come 'round and pick you up after work. (Indeed, there may be an airport-to-airport shuttle, but I've never checked) It does look like the Navy is being a little less acommodating this year, doesn't it? They had an entire CVBG in last year, to include SSN. (I don't think the SSN could be toured. I didn't try, it tied up in Oakland). USS Constellation may as well not have visited. There was a two-hour-plus wait to get aboard. I said sod that, and went to the more interesting USS Boxer (LHD-4) instead. NTM
M1Buck Posted August 27, 2001 Posted August 27, 2001 I have my rooms (2) booked. My mom, dad, wife and 3 kids will be joining me for this one boys, so I can't get too eff'ed up. Mom and Dad have friends in the area that they would like to visit and seeing that I'm heading for the "left" coast, they figured they'd join in. Hope this turns out to be just as successful as the previous I&I's have been.

C.G.Erickson Posted September 8, 2001 Posted September 8, 2001 GWB....did you post you got married?.. Congratulations........
Geoff Winnington-Ball Posted September 8, 2001 Posted September 8, 2001 CG, yes, thank you. Last weekend, my second time (hers too!), after ten years with my current partner. We are good for each other... MB... if I miss this, I will be pissed PRIMARILY because I won't get the immediate chance to show you up. YOUR TIME WILL COME, my bloated, aging friend, have no worries...
Astraea Posted September 10, 2001 Posted September 10, 2001 Please add my name to the list. I shall be sporting a rather fasionable "L on my forehead" as I'll only be able to attend Saturdays events.

Manic Moran Posted September 10, 2001 Posted September 10, 2001 Before the rest of you get ideas.. She's mine!! (I saw her first!) NTM
Jeff Posted September 12, 2001 Posted September 12, 2001 I'll not let these bastards change my plans. The best way to flip them off is to keep living life, and I'm taking one of the dreaded cross-country flights. F@ck 'em.
Michael Eastes Posted September 13, 2001 Posted September 13, 2001 Originally posted by John_Ford: Just wondering, are we still a go? Unless our government suspends travel. Why let the bad guys win?
C.G.Erickson Posted September 14, 2001 Posted September 14, 2001 If you guys are willing to, Then I will damn sure be there to greet you as fellow Americans......
M1Buck Posted September 15, 2001 Posted September 15, 2001 I'm going and I've been considerably busy lately. Tickets and rooms are bought and I'm not planning to change my plans that I have- namely, the great time I have at these I&I's with people I care about just to please some terrorist. Hope to see you all there. PS My wife and kids are coming. Don't be afraid to bring Girlfriend or Household 6. There are alot of things they can do while we are beating our chests and drinking beer.
Manic Moran Posted September 15, 2001 Posted September 15, 2001 Would anyone be adverse to the concept of a BBQ at my place on the Saturday? Meat, beer, and the Blue Angels.... NTM

Meat, beer, and the Blue Angels.... NTMCheck with Cary Erickson on this , he is the one who put this schedule together. Note; with all the cancelled flights shaking out , I'd recommend reconfirming flights later this week. Some of us may be booked on cancelled flights, then there are those they cancel once you get to the airport.
Jeff Posted September 17, 2001 Posted September 17, 2001 Exactly my intention. I got the times I wanted at a good price so I figure my flight was the first one cancelled, I will be checking soon. Tough situation, complain that no one is flying but cancel a bunch of the flights.
