I think Leon is planning on coming to Washington…hence the reason he began to sell some of his 19th century cards. I think it’s obvious he’s financing his campaign and making a play for the White House, I can only imagine what bills he puts before Congress regarding our cards. |

Let me add that Leon will be staying with Judy and I that weekend in Brooklyn and we even talked about doing it in Cobble Hill/Brooklyn Heights on Friday night, which might be an easier day for some. However, Leon's plane is due in around 3:00-3:30, and he wouldn't get into Brooklyn until after 4:00 even if he were on time. If there's a weather delay, he could be really late (but I told him I'll save him a doggie-bag ). So Friday isn't impossible but we could run into logistical problems. |

Hmmmm do I hear a Vice President Sloate here....my thoughts are correct Leon is making a run for the White House. |

Do we want it Friday night or Saturday night, formal or casual, expensive or cheap, early or late, in Manhattan or Brooklyn? I vote we vote on each of these issues..... |

And in the new Luckey/Sloate White House "don't ask, don't tell" would be replaced by "not that there is anything wrong with that". |

It very well might be Luckey/Sloate.....but I doubt it would be for president. Maybe for a cab ride but not much else. If I do run maybe my slogan will be "Vote for Luckey.....with less overhead, and billions in banner ad money, he can balance the National Budget" Or I could run on "Outlaw Cockfights in all 50 states!!!" |

I'm starting a trial on Feb 11 which is running 5 days a week; therefore, Saturday night in Manhattan would be best for me as time will be pretty tight once things start. Any chance for a steak venue in midtown Saturday night? |

Jeff- how about something a little less pricey? I actually thought Morton's was awful- Luger's makes them look like they don't even know how to cook steak, so I vote for something else (but I'll listen). |

Okay- at this juncture it appears that John, Jeff, and Joe D. would like to join us that night. I would like to suggest a moderately priced restaurant, not a place like Morton's. I think that was really bad news. |

Guys, just give me a number of people who will attend and I'll find a place. My case is heating up and time is just really tight but I definitely will attend as I need to show Leon off to some other people as they have heard -- but no one has actually seen -- a Jew from Texas. |

Michael- no crappy steakhouses that charge and arm and a leg and then serve you a mediocre piece of steak. I can get a better steak than Morton's from my local butcher. If it's expensive it's got to be something good. If only we could get into Luger's- but for a Saturday night you need to make a reservation about a year and a half in advance. |

And how! I saw them play at a now defunct club, the Cellar Door in Georgetown (DC), sometime in the 70s. I remember him singing "Get Your Biscuits in the Oven and Your Buns in Bed." A true original! |

Leon, we have a conundrum I suppose now. Have you seen Barry's waist? It's like 27 inches. He eats bark and berries. And bird seed. We may have to find a happy medium. |

Just to throw out an idea...anyone up for the Peking Duck House on Mott Street? Haven't been there in a long time, but it could be pretty crowded on a Saturday night. I know it may not be everyone's cup of tea. |

As long as wherever I go I can wear a T-shirt and shorts then I am all for elegant....but seriously, a nice middle of the road steak would be great....I do agree with Bruce on less "touristy".....As the organizer of several large dinners I think the main thing is someplace that is QUIET so we can chat and hear each other. It's more about the company we keep that evening than the food we eat. (did I say that?)......Yelling into someone's ear and having them barely hear you is not a good thing when trying to have a friendly conversation.....best regards |

Leon- we've already had about half a dozen Net54 dinners and unfortunately none of them have been at a quiet venue. It would be nice to be able to converse with somebody at the other end of the table but that has been impossible. Let's see if we can come up with something a little different this time. |
