too far
Heading back to the West Coast after three Shows back East and in the MidWest, the Home Entertainment Show will fire up again in San Francisco on June 6. Will you be there?
Besides being too far away and costly, the US ain't too friendly with foreign visitors nowadays. I can't stand the hassle of being searched, questioned, and scrutinised by airport security (all this while I was just in transit to Lima, Peru!)
Yes, really looking forward to it. It will easier to get to from Colorado than New York. I am going as a trade person, as we build home theaters as part of our remodeling business. We will be searching for home theater ideas and tips and will enjoy meeting industry people and the people who write the articles that I read every month. Also will be great to be in SF again. Good food, beautiful town, and the San Francisco Giants at PacBell Park on Friday night. WOW!
Ever since the 9/11 incident, the airlines won't let me wear my tie aboard the plane due to "safety concerns." As a result of this foolishness, I have chosen not to use comertial airlines. Getting there by boat is not an option as I would have to go through the Panama Canal, and the drive is too long.
I'm attenting with my lovely girlfriend who enjoyed last year's show in NYC! We'll drive down the coast to Carmel and Big Sur afterward for a well-deserved vacation week. Looking forward to a fun time at HE2003 and determining which speakers I should purchase to complete my system.
