I did get what I wanted but hope no one else was waiting and their email suffered the same fate.  | |

| POFers and Guests All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Bash @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/16/2006 6:28:41 AM | | Hey everyone just wanted to say that we just had our staff Xmas party at the BUrlington Convention Center and it was fabulous. The food was great the atmoshpere was great it was an all round great time. I havent made definite plans for New Years but if it involves going out I am pretty sure it will be to this event. You can't go wrong with the price especially with the full meal and drinks included you wont find that at any upscale or low scale venue anywhere in the GTA(I dont think so)Most bars are half or close to that price and don't really include anything. | |

| POFers and Guests All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Bash @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/18/2006 11:37:03 AM | BabyJ Great Post. This place is so awesome and the host is definately one of the best. Bring the New year in right... This is the best venue in the GTA and the Oakville to Niagara area for new years for the investment.
WHAT A BARGAIN! ALL YOU CAN DRINK AND EAT
BOOK QUICKLY AS THE RATE WILL GO UP TO 100 DOLLARS SOON.
You would certainly know that this price is a bargain for anyone thinking of attending an upscale function.
The fishing should be great
Hit the button peeps ....You know you want to.
Most places want 40 to 50 dollars FOR new years eve PLUS YOUR DRINKS and the food is no where near to as good as here.
ONE PRICE ALL TIPS INCLUDED AND
YOU CAN GET ALL YOUR FRIENDS WITH YOU DRINKS ALL NITE WITHOUT BEING OUT OF POCKET. What a great place to get wasted!!! or numb!!! if you have a designated driver or limo...
Come alone or bring friends , there is Plenty of ROOM for PLentyoffish. I don't think there is another upscale Gala nearby.
Drop by if you can and check out the place. It is behind the GE (General Electric tower at Burloak and the QEW).
The decore is breath taking...
The DJ is already taking requests so if you have any post or email our host with your special requests.
Don't be a hit the button, get your ticket from Cindy 905- 319 - 0319
fyi.. there are more people going than posted | |

| POF All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Party @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/19/2006 8:15:37 AM | | Hi.I would love to attend this event as I had plans and was left hanging as of last week.Am I too late?I would be going alone so having someone to ride with or walk in the door with would be nice as it would be much easier than goin in alone.Sounds like everyone got an early start on this one so if I am too late I understand.Please get back to me and let me know.If I cant go it sounds like a well planned event and a great time.Thanks, Rose | |

| POF All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Party @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/22/2006 11:51:56 AM | WEll this New YEARS Eve party is almost SOLD OUT! POFERS HAVE UNTIL 10AM WED DEC27TH TO GET A THERE TICKETS AT 90 DOLLARS. THERE IS A WAITING LIST OF 150 NON POF SINGLES THAT WISH TICKETS AT $100 EACH.

Hilton garden: burloak and qew there some rooms available at 129 each and suites at 199. FREE shuttle has been arranged to the New Years party for POFers staying at the Hilton.
For what I have been able to determine the persons that indicated they are holding a Gala event in Hamilton at the convention center as posted ON THE ORIGINAL PICS OF THIS EVENT POSTING will not be HAVING THEIR PARTY AT THE HAMILTON CONVENTION CENTER. But I would suggest you email the organizer(S)/host/hostesses/co-hosts to confirm. { I am lead to believe this because there is a post that indicates the host/co-host/mc will be navigating further east to see our friends at the great party in Oshawa.
REMEMBER ALL YOUR DRINKs ARE INCLUDED AT OUR EVENT AT THE BURLINGTON CONVENTION CENTER... WEAR YOUR WRIST BAND DO NOT TAKE IT OFF

LADIES THERE IS AN ENTIRE TABLE OF SINGLE MEN RIGHT NEXT TO YOU. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ME AT THE EVENT I WILL BE HAVING DINNER AT TABLE 19 AND MOVING AROUND THE ROOM AFTERWARDS. LOOK FORWRD TO SEEING YOU ALL AT THE END OF THE YEAR AND THE BEGINNING OF 2007
AND WITH TODAY BEING THE OFFICIAL FIRST DAY OF WINTER AND
BECAUSE THE 2006 IS QUICKLY COMING TO A CLOSE, CHRISTMAS AND THE HOLIDAY SEASON IS HERE; I wanted to take a moment to share with you some of my favorite pieces and thoughts regarding friends and friendship.
I believe/hope my sharing these thoughts will pehaps give us a better perspective and place added value to the meaning of the word "friend" I also want to say "thank you",to those of you that already are considered a friend,[THANK YOU AS YOU KNOW IS SOMETHING WE SAY TO GOD] for just being there for just being the person you are, for being so much more than many of people around you or on this site will ever see.
Thank you for sharing your friendship, for not making judgments, for accepting both my strengths and my weaknesses. Thank you for your caring and understanding but most of all thank you for the honour of calling you my friend,
BECAUSE THE GOOD WILL OF THOSE WE SERVE OR CALL FRIEND
ARE THE FOUNDATION OF OUR SUCCESS
THE YEAR END AND THIS HOLIDAY SEASON,
BRINGS NO GREATER PLEASURE,
THAN THE OPPORTUNITY TO SAY:-
'THANK YOU'
AS I EXPRESS, IN ALL SINCERITY,
THE FEELINGS OF GOOD WILL,
WITH TRUE APPRECIATION OF OUR
FRIENDSHIP AND OUR ASSOCIATION;
IN THIS SPIRIT MAY THE COMING YEAR
BRING YOU AND THOSE AROUND YOU;
CONTINUING SUCCESS, PROSPERITY,
MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS,TRUE FRIENSHIPS,
HAPPINESS, LOVE, PEACE, HOPE AND JOY.
BECAUSE THE HOLIDAYS ARE ALL ABOUT SHARING AND FRIENDS. I WISH TO SHARE THE FOLLOWING Quotes [interesting that although some go back to before Christ they remain true and constant today] and prose: I have selected for a few special people I have had the honour to meet and come to know.
'The man travels the longest journey that under takes it in search of a true friend.'Ali-ibn Ali Talib Sentences of the 7th century
"A sympathetic friend can be quite as dear as a brother"Homer,Odyssey 9th century
'The only way to have a friend is to be one'Emerson from friendship 1841
From Aristotle's "Nichomachean Ethics" of 4th century BC I have chosen the following" "Between friends there is no need for justice" "My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake" "Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow and ripening fruit" "Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies"
"Real friendship is shown in times of trouble, prosperity is always full of friends" 425 BC Euripides
"A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care to acquire" from Maxims 17th century
"I am a hoarder of two things documents and trusted friends" Muriel Spark 1992
I can't remove your burdens
but I can help make them lighter
I can't change a bad day
but I can help to make it brighter
I can't erase your soorow
Sorry I can't think up more stupid rhymes
but maybe I will tomorrow
I know that lately I have been really busy...
But I also know how easy it is to forget your own needs when there's too much to keep up with........so I hope you'll take it easy and take care of yourself
I need to see your smile and hear your voice and feel your arms around me....
I miss you and wish you were here.
Let's Never Let Go of Our Friendship
I don't ever want us to let go of each other maybe our paths will go in separate directions,but that won't change the bond we share and what's in our hearts...
My friend no matter where I am or what I am doing, when you come to mind a smile comes on my face and a warmth settles in my heart
The days you and I shared will always be cherished,
We've grown together and done a lot together and no matter what, in the past,
We always let each other know that we do love and care about each other in a special way,
I hope we will always feel comfortable caring for each other's well being and happiness
You are more than just a friend to me, I sometimes struggle to say how I feel but I hope we never let go of what we share, because whether it's across the miles or just a short distance
You are and will always be a part of my life and a part of what made me, me today
In closing, Thank you again for everything, especially for helping me to continue to look at the person within. I respect your courage and your honesty. May this new year of 2007 bring all of you so much closer to the good things you have earned and so richly deserve. Take care everyone, keep well, and may God always stand between you and harm.
Sincerely with my best wishes always, Alex-Georg aka "Carpe" HOPE YOU ALL FIND A GR8 CATCH  | |

| POF All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Party @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/22/2006 1:20:58 PM | HI EVeryone ,
Just to confirm -
As most of you are aware I am expecting twins and throwing parties right now is not in the best interest of the babies - therefore - i will be attending the SHWA party - baring any unforseen circumstances ( and/ or unrelenting morning sickness)
So you are right Alex - The Hamilton Party is not going to be occuring this year although at 75 dollars all inclusive it sure woulda been a deal !
Everyone enjoy the party in Burlington ! Looks like a fun shindig ! I woulda attended much closer to home but i dont drink and neither does tiger so there really wasnt a point for us .
Happy New Year !

| POF All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Party @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/22/2006 5:42:33 PM | Hey Carpe can I change my table to 19? ..... That was a great post, a very moving year end greeting. You have certainly got me thinking and I am sure one or two others about just how special not only this time of year is , but, our friends and the great people we have met on this site , at some of your events (and others) are; have become,.... and the role we play in each others lives.
Your warmth, caring and sincerity continue to shine through.........Now can I change my table?
I'll even buy you a drink New Year's Eve; okay a "round " for the table. 
What will it be people wine, liquer, liqour, beer, champange coffe, tea or .....?
I am not surprised the event is sold out though. What a bargain what a great venue for and bringing in the New Year . Hope you consider a replay for next year all drinks, party favours and food for one price.... maybe the same place?
Any way I am all set have my room have my ticket and looking forward to seeing the great people that enjoy a fun night at a place that is away from the norm, a very upscale enviroment.
Remember to bring cameras and take lots of pics peeps. and Having a piano player playing, as we come in is absolutley classy and oh so fabulous dahhhling! We will be strutting our stuff no doubt.
So Hit the Button, Get your Friends and Get YOUR TICKET(s) confirmed with CINDY 905-319-0319, before this WEDNESDAY at 10am.
If you miss the party best wishes every one for a wonderful warm Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Regardless of where you are, like Carpe, I truly hope you will be surrounded by people that think you are wonderful as you are. 
PS if you are still not sure: Please consider this: most places 40 to 50 dollars plus drinks 4 drinks with tip is 80 to 90 dollars and you might still be hungry or thirsty.... and you may want to buy a lady three or four drinks that you see across the room... hmmm that adds to lots of fun here for sure.... Can't wait to buy the first round... for the room... by the way I did not win the 30 million tonight | |

| POF All-Inclusive New Years Eve Gala Party @Burlington Convention Center Posted: 12/23/2006 10:39:57 AM | Merry Christmas

We'll have fun you can be sure, drive safe everyone and have a great holiday season
