** GET TOGETHER REMINDER ** This Tuesday August18th:
A bunch of us are going to meet at the Tiffany's restaurant in Union NJ around 5:30 p.m.. I have reserved an area for 25, but they can accommodate more. Everyone is invited to come (yes, pre and post op). Feel free to bring the kiddies and your significant other (or anyone else you'd like to come).
Just want to go over some things, and I don't mean to offend -
(1) If you want a separate check, please let the server know prior to taking the orders. It’s a hassle to ask the server to do this later on. And some places won’t do this if the crowd is too numerous.
(2) Usually when we do a group meeting, I like to divide check by the total number of folks at the table, instead of trying to figure out who had what. (If someone brings more than one person, they multiple the total owed by the number of people they have). Now I understand if you only order a coffee and someone else has a Filet Mignon with a 5 lbs Lobster – then we can address that more diplomatically.
(3) Please bring CASH (unless you want a separate check). And please make sure you have an assortment of bills. It’s really difficult to make change when everyone brings only 20’s.
For more information, please see the following post:

To be honest, it's not the numbers that is important. It's that we all get together and share and support one another.
Plus things like this take time to "catch on". Hopefully a year from now we'll be meeting in banquet halls ... or at least have 11 people attend ;D !!
Hope to see youse all there !!
