Hi Sheila and Mark,

I do not yet have a strait jacket and thought about buying one at the convention. Could you please, if you have, bring one along that might fit me? (190cm, 97kg) Possibly one from Posey or Humane Restraint?

Best wishes, see you soon!

The question is not Posey or Humane Restraint. The question is getting out or not getting out.

I don't own a straight jacket, but I am going to borrow one. It is too small for me, but hopefull I can slide my arms in and fake it.

I have a couple extra straitjackets I'm planning on bringing. I don't mind loaning them out for the picture. I did end up selling my red straitjacket, though. It really was more of a "fashion statement" than an escape article.

Please let me know when the strait jacket photo session will take place.
I would like to visit the dealer tables at that time and grab a few "bargains".

I am sure the Cannons will have an extra jacket for you.

Mark...It took a bit of thinking about, but I finally got the joke about picking up the "bargains" when everyone is held in their straight jackets. Good one!

I'm sorry I can't be there in person, but I will sure be there in spirit!

I know you'll all have a great time.

Hi!

What about the plans for Thursday evening? There have been discussions about visiting the Magic Castle again which would be great. Cliff, do you still want to help us with a pick-up at LAX? Mark, when are you arriving? My flight is scheduled to arrive at 2.30 PM and I think Stan is arriving a little bit earlier.

Looking forward to see all of you again!

We're good to go Lars!

Just tell me the specific flight number and airline you are comming into LAX on, and I will pick you up. Remember, there is a dress code for the castle, at least a jacket and tie.

See you thursday my friend,

Cliff

Hi Cliff,

I'm most grateful for your hospitality. My flight ( AA 137) will arrive at LAX 2:35 PM.

Yes, I know about the dress code at the Castle and will bring my suite and a tie.

See you on Thursday,

Hello, one and all! It's getting very close to convention time and we have just a few reminders:

If you are coming via plane into Ontario Airport, you can call for the FREE Doubletree Shuttle. You will find the Courtesy Phone/Information Desk in Baggage Claim on the bottom level (at the foot of the escalator, turn right) or call (909) 937-0900.

We are planning an informal dinner on Thursday night for those of you who are arriving early and not going to the Magic Castle. If you are interested, please let us know and we will add your name to the list for a reservation. We will all meet in the lobby that evening, time yet to be determined. Please inquire at the hotel lobby desk for further information.

The registration desk opens on Friday at 4:30 pm outside the Grove Room to pick up your registration package.

Everyone, bring your strait jackets! Please meet in the Grove Room of the Doubletree Hotel WITH YOUR STRAIT JACKET between 5:30 and 5:45 on Friday for a 6 pm group photo. This will also be a great photo op for news media and we will be taking a group shot to be available for purchase during the convention, so don't be late, because we don't want you to miss out! For those of you who do not have a strait jacket, but would like to participate, there will be a limited number of extra jackets available.

Michael Busch, hello! You will need a large jacket and if you would like to purchase one we will have some of both Posey & Humane available.

Mark Lyons - I think we'd better make sure to get one for you and it's NOT going to be gimmicked!

We can't wait to see you all again and meet some new friends, too!

See you soon!
