Good luck driving there (or flying) in this snow storm. My wife just called me to tell she is stranded on I-89 right now.

I had to drive back from the airport on Friday in the middle of a flogging snow storm! It took 2 hours for a trip that typically takes 30 minutes in heavy traffic. I was lucky though--90% of flights were canceled and many travelers were seeking refuge in local h(/m)otels.
amazed me the sponsors, the geography and the enthusiasm of THE BOSS. Thanks boss and a merry christmas
See ya there. :D

helium cooler allowed? :D
99% sure I'll be there :)
Recommend somewhere to stay?
There are alot of nice hotels on the strip but most are probably booked. I am looking for a place Sat and Sun night
I really might go...
Just need to decide between a $100, 8 hour drive, or a $180 1.5 hour flight. Then decide If I want to get a hotel room etc...
Grr.
yeah.. I totally understand that's pretty much every guy needs to see at a party... :-)
What makes me a bit nervous is to speak to people I have never met before, I am so glad that I have this opportunity to know more about this community.. but still, it's challenging for me to host such a big event...:-P
I'll do my best :-):p:
Jasmine;
The people who will be there will be as friends that haven't seen one another in a long time not a meeting of strangers.
Not a thing to be concerned about.
We will have a great time!:up:
We could always turn the heat up!
I could borrow an artists easel, some brushes and paint!:wasntme:
Remember, LN2 cannot be taken aboard an airplane in the U.S. unless it is carried in a container under 3 fl. oz. :D
Have fun guys and girls.
Yeah stream it for everyone else in the world. It would be very cool to even watch you guys at work :)
really wish to be there, but timing is not good for my work......:shrug:
have fun guys
Dangling the carrot...
Mikeguava and I dabbled with the bloodrage. :rolleyes:
I have to bow out of my invite unfortunately... as I need to be more financially responsible right now after moving and using that money that I would go on to be put towards a good use will be better in the long run... Damn I hate being responsible :(
Some more than others. I live in Miami, so the equation is a bit different. Anyways--wear a big smile and be confident. You can do no wrong. :D
Yeah--that may be wise to stay away from just wearing body paint yourself. Now if Intel, AMD, or Gigabyte decide to bring those girls again......:D I'm sure complaints will be minimal from us guys. In that case, however, watch the booze.:eek:
Hey guys.. i will probably fly in for the party, and fly out that night. Don't feel like doing the 7 hours round trip of driving :P
What time will the party end? Are we going to be hanging out.. chatting and benching.. or is there like a schedule of demos and presentations?
Ton
Still unsure of making it out yet, money issues for the plane ticket, no difference there,... lol
Dave will be looking for a place to take a nap at 6:15PM :ROTF:
He's old he wont need Nyquil.
so do they sell hardware at ces??
already got a core i7.. why do i need another :p
lol.. i'm just curious because i read somewhere that they will be showing off the gtx 285.. and if that is the case.. and they exclusively launch there.. i was hoping to buy one :p
never been to CES.. or even much read anything about it!!! so it'll be a fun new experience for me...
i'm assuming it'll be like... a nerds equivalent to a car show? :rofl:
I didnt even have a chance to hit the show floor for more than a few hours. I was to busy overclocking :) Unfortunately this year I cant get off work so I am only coming out for the weekend.
Hey nos where in SoCal?
that would be bellflower... but since no body knows wtf bellflower is.. lets say around the lakewood/cerritos area... and if nobody knows where those 2 are... then maybe 15 min from anaheim.. lol
i'll be celebrating my 21st bday down there! (though its on dec 26th... this would be the only freetime i have to actually celebrate!)
what better than to get (possibly) drunk and watch some world famous overclocking :up:
Nice I work over in Brea/Fullerton
hrmm, nice, seems i'm meeting more forum members (from other forums too) from socal these days
perhaps i'll meet u there.. i'll wear a "hello my name is" tag.. lol
wow... 24 already!!:-) getting excited for my trip to Las Vegas!
Merry Christmas to all members on this forum!!
Wish you a happy holiday and great 2009 soon!!:p:
I'll be there, cya all there!
Wish I could go... I have no money or time to spare. ;)
Hi Jas! You'll be fine.. don't worry about the event. Just relax :up:
I really wait the party over there. Las Vegas is one of the places I have always wanted to go for some reason.
We will have fun for sure and some helium might be flowing around in the event ;) It will be interesting, so come to check that out.
See you all in there!:up:
Merry Xmas!
Yo Pete!!!:D
lol.. does that mean you're going to CES as well??
that'll be awesome if we can meet up again though....
I don't really know if there's anyone else going... hm, i would love to see all of u again however it's also a pleasure to meet some new ppl who are also experts in this field...:-D
the party should be great! I expect there's a HUGE dance floor:p:
Thanks to Fugger, I'm lucky!:-D
dont forget your poodle skirt, dave
Have to check my schedule first, but I believe I can make it to the party =)
Yes, I am coming to CES. I'll be there on 8th of January. It is nice to meet you again :up:
Dance floor should be huge.. then I can move my body (can't call it dancing :D )
It will be nice to see Movieman doing those ancient dance moves.. that is something we really have to see :yepp:
i'm gonna have to bring some glow sticks and perform some nice poi :)
wicked SF3D, then there might be some amd chips screaming with helium huh
this is going to be huge man, wish i could be there he he
for sure, there will be pushed some things :D
Haha oliver.. This time it's not nice to say your slogan :)
Yeah..liquid helium (-269c) will play a big part in CES.
I'll be there +1 for the XS party... looks like a good time will be had.
hadnt seen your posts since a long time , a please you are ''active'' again
I would kill to be there but I have no chances of assisting. Even though I wont be there I really wish you to have fun ( remember we do this for fun and because we love it, dont get mad at someone if you dont share his opinion or point of view)
Regards
J
Getting last minute details taken care of, but looks like I will be down there for the fun !
Will be nice to meet you finally Buckeye
Yeah it will !!
Is Elvis making an appearance ?

:ROTF: What's someone from South Florida doing posting a picture like that? :D
I'm just an 18 year old KID! But I feel just that deaf after talking to Dave!
Dave talks?:shrug:
He says that if I listen to him talk 90% of the time time, the other 10% of the time I can enjoy complete and total silence.:D
Who knew that when he said complete and total silence, he meant going deaf?:confused:
Oh well--it's better than hearing him speak for hours on end!:rofl:
I feel sorry for you guys going to this CES party.:shocked:
My pose' will be coming,
Kris, Casey, and Myself.
~Michael
I am still up for this, I have two friends coming to Vegas with me and both are into the whole OC thing, it just happens to be that I am the only one who ventures onto the net to look into it.
So as long as you're ok with it it would be me +2.
Btw how far from CircusCircus is this place?
Always with the Olympic spirit :)!!!
You can laugh all you want.
Better buy a reasonably priced PhenomII then wait 9 months for Intel to release its i5 platform. A platform that performs less then I7, and is already as good as finished or could be finished by now. Intel releasing i5 next year September instead of January doesn't really put a smile on my face.
Greedy bastards lol :cool: Nothing personal tho!
Kidding, ok?
I think I'm going to lock this thread before it goes into the gutter..
Either that or rent you two a room!:rofl:
Great to see XS is still a place where young boys can giggle when the word 'anal' is used :rofl:
J/K
looking at the google map satellite images, looks like when fugger isnt busy oc'ing and running the show here he is busy off roading and killing the cacti next door in that lot... those donuts didnt put themselves there
I wish I could go, I live all the way up in Vancouver :(
Oh well. 17 is probably too young anyways, I would probably just be left out.
