Philadelphia Meetup

Philadelphia Meetup - Sunday April 10th. Standard Tap, North 2nd Street
5pm.
I'm a lousy organizer...but my email can be found in my profile here - contact me so I can warn Standard Tap about how many people are showing up.
More details inside (like google map links + Standard Tap link)

This meetup is perfect if you're from NY/Baltimore/DC

You can come up early in the day and go to the Art Museum (Be like Rocky!).
You can go to Atlantic City and Gamble a bit first.

But, you can do what I never did, prior to this past April - go to a Mefi meetup, find out that these are normal people who can hold + understand coherent conversations about the internet. And they're nice too.

Are people under 21 allowed there? I'm 20.

Do we have to talk about the internets? Can't we talk about bicycle racing?

moooshy,
The Standard Tap isn't exactly the kind of place that's going to have a bouncer at the door - especially on a Sunday afternoon - so I'd think you'll be fine.

Crap...you chose the Sunday that falls after my three state drive-a-thon weekend. I seriously doubt that I'll have the energy to make this. Have fun, kids.

amanda! C'mon.

Fixed, sure, just as long as you shave your legs

I'll come, but I'll have to leave after about an hour.

amanda, if you come, I hereby promise not to say "eh."

Soyjoy- the irony here would be that I have a tendency to add "eh" as a suffix to thoughts...and I've never even been to Canada.

I'm already driving from Baltimore to Norfolk to DC to Baltimore that weekend...two hours each way to Philly is a bit much, barring any energy miracle. So, yeah...looking doubtful. Sorry. :(

I updated the upcoming.org listing to point to this thread.

Considering how vocal I was in the other thread, I'll be out of town. Have fun.
