Cool. We can assemble the Mefi contingent for the protests. I'll bring the blue ski masks.

Watch him go all Midtown on our asses.
A place like, oh, the Black Sheep upstairs, just to pick a name at random, would be so like him. ;>

Also, we need more torches than last time. We cannot run out of torches again! That was very embarrassing, and the state remained unsmashed! I personally, however, got very smashed.

Just for that, we're having it at La Fleur's! ; >

(i'm cool with anywhere in Manhattan--the black sheep is close to my office, but i'd rather we went somewhere with an outside area too.) I'll think of places and get back to you.

Oh, amber, I was just making shit up to promote a reaction!

Black Sheep is fine, but we'll save it for the wintertime, when the weather is, as the kids like to say, teh suck.

Everything you've ever said is brilliant.
Anything you wanna do is fine with me.

Oh man, if you have it at la Fleur's I am SO there...

you'd love it, lilboo--they're so hot (and sweet, too). We'll have to go one night. : >

ok, as for places: anyone ever been here? Cabin Club at Pinetree Lodge? (it sounds fun--kicky even). Or we could do DBA again, or maybe Barramundi? or Max Fish?

any suggestions?

Hey crash, where in MA you at? I'm out at the end of the Cape, and up for coffee anytime.

"Hey crash, where in MA you at?"

All over it, man. All over it.

Actually, staying in Nashua, working in Boxboro.

crash, the GFL* draft is this Saturday at my house, so I'll be a little busy - however, there will be plenty of burgers and brewskies available. Gimme an email.

* - "Gnational Football League". Yes, the "G" is silent.

So yeah, Thursday's fine by me. And Amberglow, just name a place and we'll all follow like the sheep we are. :)

Oh and a time, let's say 8pm? Or is that past everyone's bedtime?

By: amberglow

amberglow — Mon, 23 Aug 2004 20:50:51 -0800

8's good, but let's make from 7 on, just in case.

I don't know--maybe that silly summercamp place? : >

By: falconred

falconred — Mon, 23 Aug 2004 22:01:24 -0800

Summercampplace is fine by me, but I promise death to anyone who starts singing kumbaya.

Actually, for the first time, I'm gonna have to pass on an NYC meetup. I'm extremely tired and I haven't been feeling well lately, so have a good time without me, and rest assured I shall be there with you in a spiritual sense or just lingering like a particularly pungent horseradish fart.

Okay, who are you and why are you logging in under jomnc's name? You think we wouldn't catch you?

Whaddya mean you're not coming?

Hm.

Cabin Club could very easily work. I went there once last year and had a blast. It's not too theme-y, but it ain't the same old unkicky same old.

I hear some nights it's crazy, but hey, the good joints always are, baby.

By: amberglow

amberglow — Tue, 24 Aug 2004 10:19:25 -0800

ok, so let's do there, from 7pm on...someone bring some lanyard, and we'll make keychains (and other things).

By: amberglow

amberglow — Thu, 26 Aug 2004 05:03:54 -0800

Should i repost this? Are we all coming? Will falconred be welcomed to our quaint little town? : >

Bummer, I would have been willing to go out tonight. It is a Friday and everything. The night that people traditionally go out. It's a little custom we have. Going out on the weekends.
