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.

secretly hoping someone else wants to 'organize'- contact me please

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.

and still, i'm secretly hoping someone else wants to 'organize'- contact me please>

what film festival?

I would maybe come but I'll be driving my daughter back to college. Whatever you do, don't borrow sciurus' camera!

The 14th Philadelphia Film Festival, of course.

Like I said, I'll be there early on but will have to leave in order to put food on my family.

iconomy - Waaaah! What bad timing. Might I suggest...?

Oh, I'll be in Philly that week, but I'll be at the Film Festival, spreading Sealabery to those who care to listen.

Heh soyjoy - don't think I haven't thought about it. You have to put food on your family? Sounds kinky - take pics!
posted by iconomy at 8:17 AM on April 6, 2005

There's nothing kinky about it. I was emulating our president, who is a veritable paragon of nonkinkiness.
posted by soyjoy at 9:45 AM on April 6, 2005

i'm there.

for those of you considering the film festival, we're talking about a few hours out of what is otherwise a 14 day event. I think you can spare it, even if you will miss School of Seduction.

I'll be there with pants on!
