Yes, typical Chuck. (You saw his, "yeah, right Kevin did mention it." Really like the guy but this is the second time there was a screw up - similar space on Walter Cahill on the last dinner.  Arlene and I keep asking if they want us to coordinate directly with Kevin but Mike and Chuck say No and I think Kevin is equally spacey.  Not much we can do but be aware I guess. I emailed Kevin to confirm the date and time last week and got no response.  I should probably have sent an email from you - he responds to you.  

Last flight out is 8:30 from LGA.  Would be really tight.  Again, your call but I don't think you can get dinner done by 7 which I think you would need to leave by right?  

The only other options and I don't know if they are possible are that I looked at the IAFF agenda and there is no dinner on Monday night.  But Arlene says she can't make Monday.  Or we buy a table at their gala dinner on Tuesday and you guys network at that cocktail reception and dinner.  

Anyway, your call.  Sorry - it sucks either way.

I don't know who f'd this up but it's pretty typical. - sounds like K told Chuck and he spaced.  Anyway, why can't I take latest flight put of NYC on 17th?

I'd think you wouldn't be back to the Lake by Noon at the earliest on the 18th.   We'd also have to figure out the rest of the week.  All doable just a pain in the butt.  We'll talk before we do anything on Monday.
