    Hey guys there has been a change in venue because Jillian's could not suit certain criteria for a dinner. Also the time of the event has also changed (still Feb. 7th but it's a b-day lunch now instead of dinner) so I hope everyone can still make it! Sorry about the changes guys!:

    It's at the Marriott Hotel, 55 Fourth St & Mission,
    directly across from Metreon, one block south of the
    Powell St. BART station.

    It's the same day, Sat. Feb. 7 and it's from 11:30 - 2 p.m.

    As you enter the lobby, go to your right and take the escalator to the next floor. The restaurant will be on your right. It's still $20 per person, as before, and will include several items, including several salads, soups, and a refillable non-alcoholic beverage. It's also a buffet so feel free to loosen the belts before hand. :) (a sample menu for that day might be something like: broiled NY steak w/burgundy wine demiglaze, baked salmon w/ horseradish crust, green beans almondine, and garlic mashed potatoes). RSVP is still by the 2nd with Matt taking the payments via paypal @ toschestation@yahoo.com or other forms of payment via check, MO, etc at his mailing addy (PM or reply on this thread if you want that option).

    If people come are coming into the City there still might be the Chinese New Years road closures now so I'd reccommend getting here by 10:30am if possible. Also since the time has changed we can talk a while afterwards about future events like WonderCon and Celebration 3 and then checkout the Chanel New Years Parade, I mean Chinese New Years Parade @ 5:30pm!

    Hey, isn't this year the Year of the Monkey? As I recall, Chanel was born that year, too. Coincidence? I don't think so.

    Chanel was born in the Year of the Goat.

    The new year didn't start until lat Feb the year Chanel was born. Angelica was born in the year of the Pig.

    You're right, Robert. I should've checked better. I forgot that New Year's falls on a different date every year. D'oh!

    I think the SFFF Council will need to met up at some point for trouble shooting for Feb 7th and planning stuff. Mary Franklin will be attending to our shin dig and she's back with LucasFilm working as Steve Sansweet's assitant. Let's make it good gentlemen! :)

    Very cool, Ming! Hey, all. Parking info. If you don't plan to stay more than a few hours, you can park at the 5th & Mission Garage diagonally across the street. If you DO plan to stay a little longer, and don't mind walking two blocks, the parking lot at 5th and Folsom is usually $5 all day, but because of the parade, it could be $8 or $10. BTW, George Lucas: Year of The Monkey!

    Oh nevermind, of course not today wednesday, I think we should have this sooner, so we can get evrything set in stone. We discussed an afterparty, We have to figure out where to hold that?
