Got my Forbidden Island NYE tickets and my hotel room. This year I am trying out the new Hawthorn Suites on Alameda for my NYE crash pad. Anyone else staying there NYE? I believe this is a new hotel on Alameda. I've tried the Days Inn, the Marina Village Inn and the Coral Reef Inn for past Forbidden Island events and these are not new hotels and delivery varying levels of guest experience (IMHO, Marina Village = current best on Alameda to Days Inn = current worst on Alameda).

Yeah, the Hawthorne just opened up on Bay Farm. It's going to need a taxi or DD, but it's probably the nicest new place to stay- and they've got some good promo rates.
Just sold 10 more tickets last night, to a bunch of women from a Swedish Nudist Colony*, so hurry in to get the last remaining! It's going to be a great night- DJ Jab promises some kind of rare KC and the Sunshine Band 45 that he found, and now I suddenly wonder if I should not have told you that. (no refunds!)
*not actually true.

There is a Hawthorne Suites on Webster that has been there for a couple years now. Maybe that's the one Mark is talking about? It would only be about an 8-block walk from FI.

Thanks Forbidden Island for a fantastic time! It was good seeing some old friends and meeting new ones! And no hangover, I guess I didn't drink enough.

I think I had more fun than anybody this nite cuz I am just now recovering... THANKS SO MUCH to not only Martin but the entire crew of Forbiddin Island for throwing quite a bash. I know I had more than my share of everything and felt as though I was treated like royalty. What a great group of people to have rung in a new year with. Super thanks to Tie Won On for including me! You ROCK bro!!! Oh and Hanford as I was trying to say before my words (and everythig) became blured , much respect and admiration for providing a place for us all to keep in touch...
Is that marpaul or paultin?!?
these guys were there
oooo Ron has a scorpian bowl delivered
see what happens after the scorpian bowl!! but hey it's NYE
just before midnight things started to become a blur
2008/2009 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
and Melissa turned it up and was on FIRE!! HOT!!!
and this is the last thing I can remember...
