i do the biennial thing. After all, the differences are too little to justify going annually. But that's just me. I'm hoping to get info on 06 Legacys. Maybe I should bring a mallet and try to hammer that B9Tribeca's snout back to place.

Best hotel I've stayed at DT arguably wasn't the Royal York, as nice and stately as it is.

I prefered The Grand Hotel http://www.grandhoteltoronto.com/ just because it was a bit more casual, but the buffet brekkie was tasty and rooftop hot tub in the middle of February was quite 'invigorating' - had fun cracking my frozen hair in the -20d weather. It's not in close proximity to the show (still DT), but nice nevertheless.

Personally, I think we could just crash at Jeff's place. His approval unnecessary.

I've been out of the loop...is there a formal CD gathering planned for the show? My wife has no interest in the show this year. Something about boring, too much walking, etc.

I'm not sure if Jeff's Fridge box will hold us all.

Aquaman, y'all are welcome to crash at my place -- especially since I"ve already given my "Notice to Terminate Tenancy" to the landlord at the end of the month.  It'll probably be filled with boxes and my roommate and I haven't cleaned in weeks realizing that we're soon to be out of the dump and onward to our own homes (well... me to a cardboard box anyway).

So, anyone who's willing to snuggle up with Snowman on my pull-out couch is certainly welcome.  There are also two kayaks on the balcony that may provide adequate sleeping arrangements for contortionists.

Hahaha, sounds familiar there Slove. Not that I have a wife, but just from friends and family. "Too much walking... blah, blah, blah... this, that, and the other"

So, we now have a zoomy Altima 3.5 to chauffeur us to the show, knowing that Snow's WRX will be babied in the underground parking in the secure hands of hotel test-jockeys and rent-a-cops.

Or better yet, shove Jeff's beloved Audi to the curb and give the garage a car more deserving of the spot

Between Snowman's vid, which has me giggling the more I look at it, and the contortionist classes at Jeff's place, should make for some pretty 'interesting' entertainment.

And Snowman looks like a big 'ole bully. Seems I'll have to learn how to become more flexible out on the balcony.

Do I get an indoor parking spot?….this would save me big $$$ if I could crash at Jeff’s…I could take the savings and buy a bottle of GG,CR, and many bottles of Stella.
