Anyone know where can I download some of that cool MetaFilter shoutout letterhead?

I'll be there as well - keeping the Mefi meetup height average up - 198cm, bearded, looking for ParmanParman.

198cm

Careful, now. God hates the metric system.

I'll be there bringing the height average down, but probably late since I'm battling traffic from Baltimore.

Short girl, short brown hair, black glasses.

I'll be there too. 5'9", short black hair, blue eyes. I'll be coming from work, but should be there roundabout 6:30.

Careful, now. God hates the metric system.

I've got it on good advice that it's not actually the metric system he hates, but rather, the conversion between metric and english. So you'd better not be thinking of my height as 6.49606299 feet, or else it's HELLFIRE AND DAMNATION FOR YOU.

I am 1.83 metres tall and weight just under 14 stone. But I won't be at the meetup even if it is at my favourite bar in DC.

Have fun peoples!

Get your MetaGram in PDF format right here, in theory.

Hmmmm. I might be really late, actually. MrMoonPie: I'm sending you an email with my #. Will you give me a call if you kids leave Atomic before I get there?

Thanks, cortex. My printer's colors are a little out of whack, but the file printed OK.

I wish I could make it, but can't.

Ack! How did I miss the first post?? I'd love to be there but I already have plans. Is it too soon to suggest scheduling ANOTHER VA/DC/MD meet up sometime soon?
posted by necessitas at 2:54 PM on February 2, 2007

What! Meetup! Can I still make it? Huh? Huh?
posted by brownpau at 8:09 PM on February 2, 2007

Well, I suppose you could've, brownpau, since I just got home. Pictures (and shoutouts) to be posted tomorrow. Uh, god hates math, parmanparman...sorry we missed you?

:( I would've much rather been at the meetup than in my suckass class.

I'm sad I missed it.

Years ago, my brother and I finished up an all-day drunk with a meal at Yenching Palace; our guts couldn't quite stomach the abuse and we ducked around the corner for some yenching of our own. Ah, memories. Sorry to hear it's shutting down.

You know where youse should have a meetup? Roy's Place in Gaithersburg. I know it's a bitch to get to, but they have an epic sandwich menu and the best decor in the world.

Maybe I can schedule a trip to visit my bro to coincide with one a your meetups. That's the ticket.
