Well, I have decided not to make the trip there because I don't want to have to make one of you guys pick me up from the train station and I also don't want to get lost hoping the train lines. lol

Does anyone have a Mini to RCA's cable that they wouldn't mind bringing?
I ordered cables on Sunday Night and it looks like the *4 Day Delivery* isn't going to happen and I will not get them til Monday.... lame....UPS has been making a lot of false promisses in terms of timing on shipping. I think they wait to send to the university mail system last and deliver only once every two days or something.
Well, anyway .. I would really appreciate it!
I would be very appreciative!

Thanks guys!
I really appreciate it. Stupid Me... I took a bunch of RCA and other cables I wasn't using and gave them to my brothers who needed them...They were just Monster cables anyway...
Now, I am off to buy this super kit that my university is now offering that comes in a zip case and has almost any electrical circuit making tools yoou will need.... for $40...gotta love wholesale!

My excitement is is uncontrollable now.

What's wrong with Monster cables? Aside from the fact they have hit mainstream retail and are very overpriced... the M 1000 series and sigma series cables are of good quality.

Monster cables... but the low end. I even use a monster cable for my subwoofer... but to get good quality cables... you spend a rather large amount. These were the low end... so no better than cables from walmart *no-name*....

Really looking forward to seeing everyone!
FYI, there is plenty of parking on the street in front of my house - please do not attempt to park in my driveway - it's a shared driveway with the house next door.
Also, please bring iPods or similar if you have them - one thing that we tend to be short on at meets is sources.
Lastly, if you are taking the El and want to be picked up, I am willing to do one pick up at the Harlem El in Oak Park at 11:30, but please PM me if you want that - so far no one has confirmed they need it.
See you all tomorrow!
