That meetup was the roxor. Songdog, thanks for taking and posting the pictures. There were plenty of shenanigans and cowbells for everyone. I also had a great time meeting y'all (immlass, that's for you)! If i get/got anyone sick, I apologize in advance. <3 to the monkeys, and thanks traicicle for bringing us all together.
This thread is to serve as a reminder for the NJ MeFi/MoFi Meetup this Saturday evening, November 6, 2004 in New Jersey. Sorry for the delay posting the reminder on MoFi, but I've been sick and cannot post from my laptop (browser issues).
Fyi, this is the original MeTa thread. This is the original MoFi thread, and this is the MeTa reminder thread.
What: NJ MeFi/MoFi Meet-up
Date: Saturday, November 6, 2004
Time: 6:00 pm
Location: Tinga Taqueria, 215 Bellevue Avenue, Montclair, NJ. Phone: 973-509-8226.
Specs: BYO
Since the restaurant is apparently very very tiny, I'm sure there will be no question about finding each other. Just look for the crew of miscreants and reprobates...
Afterwards, we can either grab coffee at Eclectic Cafe (Bloomfield Ave) or a drink at South Park Bar (Park Street). Or both. Or none. Significant others, lurkers, and friends are all welcome.
Swweeeeet! I'm so excited that this is coming together.
immlass & goddam, thanks for the rsvp. feel free to bring anyone along that might also have a good time hanging out. Hi jb! Hope you are well...*waves* Hi forky!! Hope all is well with you, too.
MoFi, bring out your sexay wimmen! bratcat, dng, the bone, and MsVadar, we will think of you in the garden state.
Immlass, good luck with your car. (btw, not to throw waffles into the mix, but if Friday works better for everyone, we can definitely push it to that day...i'm flexible.) Any thoughts?
goddam: is your family the bon jovis'? heh. *cough* sayreville.
Of course you are welcome to join...I wrote in the MeFi post that all are welcome: MeFi, MoFi, lurkers, introverts, significant-others, friends, etc... The more, the merrier.
Anyway, check back in this thread and the mefi thread as the date gets closer, and I'm sure by then we'll have drafted the plans for the after-dinner location.
immlass: The JC? I'm coming from the other direction (by South Orange), so I wish I could offer you a ride, but JC is too far out of my way. (I've been a NJ-NYC commuter for almost 5 years, so although I have a car, driving unfamiliar routes in NJ is extremely daunting for me.) gah. I'm sweating just thinking about navigating around the Turnpike/78 extension. Regardless, I hope you can make it!
Seriously, I'm not being snarky at all, but how do you people take time off your jobs to protest? Did you put in time for a vacation? Or am I correct that many protesters are retired or students? What gives?
I saw Guiseppi Verdi's death mask at the La Scala Museum in Milan, but I'm really not fascinated by this sort of morbid artifact. All these death masks look like they are quite smelly.
I didn't read the book, but I've seen the musical on bway. It was well worth the $100 ticket. I wanted to hate it because i'm not "into" the whole Wizard of Oz thing, and find the Fleming/Garland movie from my childhood disturbing, annoying and odd. But, I didn't hate it, and i think it's definitely one of the better shows on bway right now. But I saw it when Kristin Chenoweth played Glinda (she was sublime), and Joel Gray played the Wizard (he was charming). And Joey McIntyre wasn't in it yet (bleh). With all these changes, I wouldn't see it again. Regardless, I'd still choose it over half the crap that is playing onstage right now...
hamfisted, me too...i like the pretty colors!
