Just got this from Matt Sherman:

"The sixth annual Bond Collectors' Weekend is in the works as you read this
message. Will it be Key West featuring License To Kill? Are you ready for
New York City and a Weekend to Live and Let Die for? Stay tuned to BONDLIST
for all the exciting details. One thing for sure, superb celebrities and fun
locations are on tap for our 2003 spy convention. The Shermans are juggling
several dates and venues on both coasts and are in talks with VIPs today."

How about in L.A. for Diamonds Are Forever and Moonraker? Maybe take a chartered boat ride out of Oceanside to the drilling platform from DAF? Or go out to Palm Springs and visit the Willard Whyte house (if the current owner will let us in)?

I'd be up for that. But that's A LOT of travel time. Oceanside and Palm Springs are not exactly next door to L.A. But I do really like the idea of a Palm Springs BCW.

I'd put my vote for New Orleans to celebrate Live and Let Die. And because I might actually be able to go if it's within driving distance. (10 hour drive for me if I don't bother to stop at all).

Previous BCW's have been at Las Vegas and New Orleans, Chicago and Florida.

It's time to give Washington DC or NY a turn.

You left out San Francisco, doublenoughtspy. That was last year. Yes, DC would also be good.

I've been pushing Key West ever since New Orleans. Glad to see it's one of the choices. You can actually rent Felix's house, I heard. Great place for the first night party? But I'd be happy with NY as well.

I'm kind of into the Palm Springs idea. Especially if we could find the Willard White house. I believe that was in Palm Springs, wasn't it?

Hey...can please keep things on the East Coast....preferably NYC. ;-)

Although, if what I have heard is true, I don't think I went Zencat and Bryce loose in the same city, especially when it is *my* city.

Hey, we paid for our bar tab....and damages...I'm still welcome at the Hopkins.

My vote for BCW-6 - KEY WEST

"Mojito?" - 1st round's on Bryce!

That's right...make poor Xenobia fly. Thank you Bryce.

And by the way...it's not the bar tab I am worried about. Or the damages. It's the phone call of at my office..."Ma'am, there is some man named Bryce on the phone. He is on the FDR Drive, and he says his driver is dead..."

Not an issue my dear.

With two of us, one could steer while the other climbs outside and gets back into the car and the pedals.

But we'd call anyway;)

Another location that I might be able to make it to is Kentucky.
