hey!!! That was #600!!! yay for me!
I hope you're talking about Little Italy on 44th between Fifth and Vanderbilt, otherwise

Actually, I was talking about a place in DUMBO, under the bridge!! I was there last weekend ata place called "Gribaldi's". (I know the spelling is wrong...) Best pizza I've ever had!

Yeah, I think thats it. I kew I was getting it wrong in one way or another. Great pizza. A little cramped and you have to wait on a line to get in but the food is amazing, and reasonably priced too.

That's definitely the one....

long wait on line..not too cool if it's cold outside...or raining...

during the summer they do occasionally put chairs out to sit on line...

I spoke to Jim Calafiore ...

some info about obtaining sketch's from him

He will be charging approx $50.00 a full body sketch and he only does about 5 a day...

does anyone want to be on a list for him?...I can probably send it to him and let him know..

Not sure if he'll confirm to this list, but I can try...

I am to the point where I believe I'll make a last second attempt at getting to NY next week. Any of you peoples who bought flights have any ideas who the cheapest vendor is these days?

I think I'm gonna take svair's advise & talk to a travel agent tomorrow, but I was hoping one of you might know an outfit offering some super deal?

I also need a room if anybody still has a spot to rent me for the weekend?

Thanks, ~Erskine

At this point you may as well go online and see what you can score. This late in the game, you are GONNA pay. The best deals are found when flights are just about empty. The closer a flight gets to filling the seats, the more the ticket prices become. There ARE flukes once in a while so you may get lucky. If you go through a travel agency, they will tack on a fee for pretty much doing what you will be doing online.

My wife is a travel agent and has been for years so we know the ropes a bit.

Good luck... you 'never know' what you might turn up.

Knightt is right, the closer it gets, the more you will pay. Also, traveling on the weekend days including Friday AND Monday, will cost more.

Sorry, that's all the help I can give...

19 of us... together possibly for long periods of time? Yikes...... I feel OK, though, I already have a scar from my first trip to NYC. I wasn't there two hours and my blood had been spilled on the sidewalk.

Bicycle accident, 'nuff said.
