OK Sunday it is!!! at 12:30pm at Hofstra University.

Now, for all us Staten Islanders, and Brooklynites, we will be meeting in Brooklyn, and we will drive into LI (nassau county). Hofstra is not far from bklyn/SI (25 min drive from Sheepshead bay). Dmitry, I think we should meet up at El Greco Diner parking lot, and then all of us will drive out to LI. If Richie comes, he can meet me at my house, then me and him will drive over to the El Greco Diner. So there we can meet you, Ronald Pantin and David Hendy. Now Yal is in queens, so it would be better for him to just drive straight to Hofstra (no need to come into Bklyn). So if me, Richie, Dmitry, Ronald, and David all meet up at the El Greco Diner, we can drive over to Hofstra and meet Alex and Yal. The El greco diner is in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn, right off the belt parkway. Its on the corner of Emmons Ave, and Sheepshead Bay Rd. So it seems that it will be Me, Dmitry, Richie, David Hendy, Ronald Pantin, Yal and Alex at the meeting. Like you guys said, I dont think we should do anything insane, just meet up, have some lunch, and exchange thoughts. Now, if anyone doesnt know where the El Greco diner is, please call me and I will give further directions. 917-705-7253 I cant wait until Sunday.

Oops...forget the time to meet at El Greco.


Since we're gonna meet Alex and Yal at 12:30, I think 11:45am would be a good time to meet at the El Greco Diner. This gives us 45min for everyone to get together, then shoot over to Hofstra.

If these times arent good for anyone, please post and let us know.

Hey Guys: I'm going to try and meet up with you at Hofstra, but I've been out of college for a long time now. Is it OK if my car is dirty?? Which parking lot/building will you be meeting in?

Brooklyn meeting

Can't make it out to LI, I can only make the Brooklyn meeting. Have to be at work in Manhattan at 2:00pm. Tell me where at in Brooklyn and how to get there so I can be there early. Someone please bring a camera so I can have this as a Memoir. I'm looking for my camera as we speak.

How long did you all stay at Hofstra? How did it go? I drove around the campus about 1-1:30.

You see, guys, and I was joking around that Yal might arrive, when we were at the dinner. We went to the dinner at about 1/1:30. Man those 500 E's are amazing machines.
Dave Hendys 500E is immaculate. It is beyond words!!!
Noah's C43 is also a "sick" rocket. Both machines will SLAM you in your seat, and keep you pinned there until the driver lets off the gas.

We had fun, however we must also think about hings to do next time, so we don't get bored.

Guys,
I drove into the campus on the Colliseum side, drove to what looked like a gymnasium with a dead end...turned around and came out the front by the faculty parking. Alex, are you sure you guys at Hofstra have enough parking .
I was a little ticked after that so I drove out to Ocean pkwy, nothing like the open road to put a smile back on your face .

Next time we'll have some FUN, however we must think of some other stuff to do. Yal next time, go down to California Ave, and make a left where C.V Starr Hall is, and we were in that parking lot. The next meeting will be at the collosium, on March 10.
