in glorious Madison, WI, we're planning a Mefi meetup

September 7, 2005 8:15 AM

Remember: this Friday night, in glorious Madison, WI, we're planning a Mefi meetup. The general feeling is that the Up North Bar, which is right near the Essen Haus. Apparently, they have a patio, darts, and various dead animals hanging on the wall.

So, I clicked preview, and there's no edit area. So, I click the back button, and the text isn't there any more, so I click forward, and it's still there in my browser cache of the first POST action. Not wanting to retype, I submit myself to general ridicule.

So, is anyone coming to this? If so, do we have a designated time, and method by which we're finding each other?

I can make it, but if it's a bad date for everybody else, should we reschedule?

Time, folks? I might be able to make it if it's early enough.
I'll be the guy wearing a shirt, and trousers or short pants of some sort.

I won't be able to make it tonight, unfortunately - I was looking forward to a Madison meetup since moving back here last month, but I'll have to catch y'all at the next one.

8PM good for people? I'm going to send out some emails to folks that are "near" me, according to MeFi.

Dagnabit! Friday's are usually no good for me (kids at home, end of the work week, etc), but I'm game for another mefi meetup in the future... I remember when the Up North was a place to go dancing... what was it called?

I'll be quite drinky by that time, but I should be in the neighborhood. (starting at the Argus in 3...2...1...)

I'll wear an onion in my belt.

Oh, and I think the Up North used to be the Havana Club.

(Dating myself, but then again, who else would go out with me?)

I'll try to be there 8:00-ish, but might be late.

Thanks for the e-mail, thanatopsis! I'll be there.

I'll be there wearing a green T-shirt and blue cargo pants. Now, if you're going to go checking out everyone's pants, when you come to mine, you have to say "Nice package."

That way, I'll know it's you.

Ack. I didn't know about this until now. I just got home from work and am too tired to leave the house. I hope to catch the next one. Have fun, y'all!
