Reminder. By community consensus a Boston Meetup is happening this Friday, beginning at 7:00 to 7:30 PM at the Publick House on Beacon St. in Brookline, MA. Let's show those NYC show-offs what for.

Need to coordinate further? Post here!

Wow. Why do you guys always have meetups when I'm on semester break? This is your last warning: I will interpret any further incident as a declaration of war.

Dang, didn't see the original post. MC, give my regards to the ball and chain. Tell her pictures are on the way!

Wife got roped into overtime on a Friday, so with one car it's not physically possible for me. I was really looking forward to this, too.

Ryvar, I'm happy to carpool. I'd be coming in from the watertown area - my email's in my profile if you want a ride.

I think I'm going to go. I'm driving down from Portsmouth. Will leave early-ish to go dancing elsewhere in town, though.

So how will the meetup table(s) be denoted? I'm thinking of showing up at 8-ish, but I don't know any Boston mefites. How can I find y'all?

I'm not going to make it. I'm fully aware that I'm going to regret this decision on the morrow, but I'm still stuck at work and by the time I get out of here I'm not going to want to do the drive.

Hope to make the next one. I look forward to meeting the wicked awesome Boston crew.

Damn, wish I'd seen this post earlier. Actually walked right past The Publick House (and its terrific beer list, sigh) last night on the way to another bar...

If there are no pictures, it couldn't have really happened.

It was an evening of great food, great drink, great conversation, and very little "action". Photos would have been anticlimactic.
