Also, for anyone who's interested, here's a little cost estimate for the meetup if this is helpful to anyone. It's not precise, but I hope it gives everyone an idea of what to expect:
Transportation: $8.25 for a 1-day unlimited pass...for 2 days, the cost would be $16.50. However, unless we're going to take at least 4 subway rides per day, then a fun pass would be a bit overkill.
Museum of Sex: $14.50 + tax
Food (assuming we stick to fast food places only): should be no more than $10 or so. If anyone here really insists on going to at least one expensive restaurant, contact me and I'll try to see if I can work something out.
Bowling: $14-$15ish (including the shoes). Prices may vary depending on the time of day.
Booze: I'm not even going to bother estimating the cost; figure it out yourself.
Hookers: See above. And Valz, if you read this, that smile I gave for you on Stickam tonight counts, so I'm expecting a high-class hooker worth at least $200.
Some other places of interest that we might stop by at, depending on everyone's time, budget and level of interest:
Transit Museum: $3 for people ages 3-17, $5 for people 18 and older.
NY Aquarium: $13 per person. Even if we don't go in there, hanging out by the beach in Coney Island is a worthwhile experience in itself.
I haven't set any of this in stone yet, so bring on the suggestions if you have any.
And of course, if you're staying in a hostel or a hotel, those costs should be factored in as well, although prices around here vary widely.
