I'll be back in town for a few days before Thanksgiving. Anyone interested in meeting up for a drink and a few shoutouts? If we're lucky we could also show some hospitality to an out-of-town guest.
Nov 19th or 20th work best for me (though I could probably do the 17th as well). posted by felix betachat at 11:52 AM on November 8, 2005
hm. i've got out of town guests that weekend, but i really would enjoy hearing your tales. . . . posted by crush-onastick at 12:40 PM on November 8, 2005
Sorry felix. Since you left, Chicago just hasn't been the same....
Just kidding. Of course! I'm not free on 11/18 since I'll be at Martyrs watching King's X but any other day should work for me. It'd be cool to see you and a few other Chicagoans. As soon as this tattoo on my ass heals, I'll have some creative shout-outs to throw down. posted by KevinSkomsvold at 12:42 PM on November 8, 2005
err, i could have specified that sunday the 20th is okay for me, but the 19th is right out. posted by crush-onastick at 12:52 PM on November 8, 2005
Hi. Never been to a meetup before. Would love to come. I think I prefer the 20th as well. I would also prefer near-north to far-north, although I am sure south-siders are in the minority here. posted by mai at 2:11 PM on November 8, 2005
If it's the 20th I'm in. I've got the possible 21st MeCha meetup on my dance card already, but I can always be persuaded to go to bars 2 nights in a row. posted by Slack-a-gogo at 3:12 PM on November 8, 2005
Sadly, I can only make the 21st. posted by goatdog at 3:47 PM on November 8, 2005
Bah, this is just sick. I'm going to be in Chicago this coming weekend. Seriously, how many of these can I possibly miss? posted by FlamingBore at 4:18 PM on November 8, 2005
Hey, let's just pick a day and run with it. Otherwise history will repeat itself and we'll go 40-odd posts debating on what day works best for everyone. I nominate felix as Supreme Picker of the Official Day. posted by eamondaly at 4:25 PM on November 8, 2005

I want to meet you crazy mefites. I'll be there or be square. posted by AllesKlar at 9:02 PM on November 8, 2005
*giddy with power*
MetaChat doesn't seem to have come up with a plan yet and the 21st is a definite no-go for me. So let's do something the night of the 20th. Say around 8pm?
I nominate KevinSkomsvold to pick the location. posted by felix betachat at 5:26 AM on November 9, 2005
I can only make it on the 21st! Bah! posted by mrs.pants at 7:52 AM on November 9, 2005
I'm in on the 20th. posted by eamondaly at 11:32 AM on November 9, 2005
Ok so the 20th? How about Southport Lanes & Billiards, 3325 N. Southport Ave? It's close to the brown line. Any other suggestions? posted by KevinSkomsvold at 7:07 AM on November 10, 2005
i am v. happy with southport lanes! posted by crush-onastick at 10:17 AM on November 10, 2005
If crush-onastick is happy, I'm happy. posted by felix betachat at 1:00 PM on November 10, 2005
I think I'm available on the 20th. : ) What time? posted by SisterHavana at 1:06 PM on November 10, 2005
It would have been fun, felix, but that weeekend doesn't work for me. posted by gd779 at 4:02 PM on November 10, 2005
gd779, what weekend were you thinking of? posted by KevinSkomsvold at 7:59 AM on November 11, 2005
Is this a go? Can I put it in ink? Sunday, 11/20 @ Southport Lanes. 8PM. Who's still in? It's awfully quiet and we're only a few days away. posted by Slack-a-gogo at 2:47 PM on November 17, 2005
