Any interest in a Toronto meetup Sept 8 or 9 (Fri or Sat)?

Yes please. Saturday night would be perfect--I have to do some stuff for work all day, and BEER would be good.

I'm not saying I can make the 9th (though I'll try) but am saying I definitely can't make the 8th.

Oh, and for the doubting Thomases... I only ~~have~~ had one appendix, so it shouldn't get fucked up this time.

I am interested. I vote Saturday.

You should all be at the Sadies shows at the Horseshoe those nights.

I'm in!!! Whooo! Where, what time? Who wants to get drunk and get in a bar fight?!

DNAB - you better not be hiding any more appendixes (appendices?) in there!

I'm pretty certain they'd have told me if I had more than one. On the other hand, St Joe's is a fucking useless hospital, so who knows?

It's like when you go to a mechanic, boy - you make them show you the part so you're sure they actually took it out!

Canadian healthcare, you're lucky they didn't put another one in to keep the first one company!

Saturday? Where?
Um, I'm just in town--I'm not from Toronto!

By: Shane

Shane — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 05:29:01 -0800

But I ♥ Canada.

The Monkeys are suggesting Fergus or maybe Danforth-ish.

By: orange swan

orange swan — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 06:43:52 -0800

I'll probably be there.

I'm not saying I can make the 9th (though I'll try) but am saying I definitely can't make the 8th.

I don't know whether to be impatient with Dobbs because he keeps working the tease and withhold, or impressed because he works it in such a masterful fashion.

By: jamesonandwater

jamesonandwater — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 06:48:37 -0800

If it's Danforth I'll try to make it. Fergus? I don't even know where or what Fergus is. Although I have a cousin called Fergus.

Hey, don't blame me, OS. I was committed to the last meetup and someone change the date at the last minute. Weren't my fault.

Danforth is better for me as well. I'm moving the week before the suggested date.

How about ALLEN'S? The Monkeys like it.

By: philfromhavelock

philfromhavelock — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 07:36:29 -0800

I'd like the Danforth, too. Haven't been to Allen's in years, though.

By: SassHat

SassHat — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 07:55:22 -0800

Location isn't a biggie for me - but I just realized I have a thing for work on the 9th. It's a big deal kind of thing, and I probably won't get out until 10:30 at the earliest. :(

Allen's has good nachos.

(I just asked my girlfriend "what's the plural of nachos? 's' or 'es'? She responded: 'Nachii.')

...and I probably won't get out until 10:30 at the earliest.

I can generally drink past 10:30.

Yes, Allen's would be fantastic. The back patio should still be open and it's beautiful.

By: jacquilynne

jacquilynne — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 09:33:07 -0800

Getting a large table on the patio at Allen's on a weekend evening seems a little unlikely, though, no?

By: Fuzzy Monster

Fuzzy Monster — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 09:59:08 -0800

jacquilynne: stranger things have happened. Somone will end up with a large table on the patio at Allen's. Why not us?

Failing that, there's always the 'two smaller tables close together' option.

By: dirtynumbangelboy

dirtynumbangelboy — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 10:48:30 -0800

They've expanded the back patio--it's enormous. Plus, we oculd make reservations--it's not like they're not going to make oodles of money off us.

As a new Torontonian, I'm going to try and make it.

So, we've decided? Allens on Danforth? I'm hoping to make my very first mefi-meetup, but I'm going to have to negotiate the GO from Hamilton.

To echo Popular Ethics, is it decided?
