San Francisco Meetup

February 2, 2006 9:19 AM

San Francisco Meetup, Sunday February 5, 7 p.m.. The boss and I will be in town to attend the Evans Data Developer Relations Conference, so we thought it might be fun to see some MeFites while in town. The gathering is at 21st Amendment (563 2nd Street), and we'll probably be the only table with an accordion. Hope to see you there!

In other news, PolkaFest '06 rolls into the Golden State this Sunday..

Finally, an SF Meetup, not on a weeknight. Will this be the Valentine's thing DaShiv mentioned?

Adam Savage was asking recently if there'd be one of these in SF. You might want to email him... then it'll be the only table with an accordion and a Mythbuster!


Hey do you think he'd be allowed to bring Buster?

Regret to inform that this is immediately after the Super Bowl and I will likely be too intoxicated to attend.

Wait. Sobriety is a prequisite for meetups?

No, just for getting there. Drinking and driving is always a bad idea, but when it comes down to it, being drunk on BART is no fun, either.

Well, if anyone's got any contact info for Adam Savage, send it my way...

I believe I can network to him in a couple of steps. I'll send a link to this URL out.

Plus, its Strong Beer month and the 21a has a fine selection!

21st Amendment: check
After Super Bowl (go Stillers!): anti-check

Sounds like it may be time to re-plan for watching the game in the city and heading over there afterwards..

Uh, asavage is right here.

I'm going to be out of town. Someone pop off a flash at the table for me, please.

I'm not sure if I can make this one, but I've been looking for a chance to play DaShiv's understudy. Naturally my hope is to free him up a little at meetups, because, believe it or not, he's actually a better conversationalist than photographer (which is saying a lot).

If DaShiv and his camera skillz won't be there (I think he's the one who shot the Liz Taylor perfume commercials), attendance will probably be low.

Or, us ugly folk might show up.

Wow...I might actually make it to this one. Kewl.

Aw poop...it looks like the steam powered arts group I just joined is having our very first meetup tonight. So I might not finally make a MeFi meetup :(

I'm lurking at the meet-up right now. Tee-hee!
