My company has quarterly Board of Directors meetings.. 4 times a year - meaning I only have 4 weekends a year where I am always definitely tied up with work. Why is the Big Damn Flanvention II the same weekend (different year) as the Big Damn Flanvention I? Of course that is one of those four weekends out of 52 when I can't make it!!

Well having never been to a convention, I'm thinking I will hit this one.

All the reports on how much the cast enjoy their fans has me really interested. It would be great to meet them. Plus the Q&A's really look like a blast. That and the reports of all the drunken debautchery, lol!

Looks like I might have to spring for an annual VIP pass -- I attended the special luncheon last year, and there's no way I'm going to miss that at the next FV.

Wahoo! glad you'r coming Don!!

But soo jealous about the Luncheon! Whose table were you on??

And Piff - DSL! DSL!

Yeah, I kept a low profile on that. A few people knew, but I guess you weren't among 'em.

I sat with Alan and Summer. Absolutely wonderful. So relaxed and quiet. We talked about all kinds of things. (Did you ever read my Flanvention reports? May be tough to dig up now. Let me know if you'd like me to repost or email a copy.)

I ended up with a BDP this time, not a VIP pass. Turns out the annual VIPs don't include the special luncheon, so it didn't make sense to go that way.

Almost missed out on the BDP too, but the good folks at BE rescued me. I had one in my cart, and when I checked out the store accepted my order -- but the last one had sold before mine went through! At first they emailed me and said they were sold out and would refund my money, but because of the special circumstances they gave me seat 51 and converted that into a BDP.

I thought that was *exceptionally* cool of them. Thank you, thank you! BE is definitely

I remember meting you Don. Nice to see you around.

Could you repost your report...I need help with mine! LOL Also I want to see too..

I really am going to try to save up for the luncheon, it soudned awesome. Did the BDP's automatically come with a luncheon pass? Or do you still have to bid?

No, they don't. The only ones that do are those Lifetime VIP passes. Pretty hard to justify one of those when you live on the opposite coast

I was thinking I might just bump the Flan reports, if I can find them in the archived threads. Or maybe I could combine them into a single file and put it up on a hosting site... hmmm.

I just wrote in on my work schedule for next December. My boss asked, "What? Time off in December?"
I looked straight at him and asked, "Paid?"
He laughed. I don't think that bodes well for the paid part of it.

Good strategy, anyway. Ask for more than you think you can get, and you have a better shot at getting what you really need.
