A New York City Get Together on Sunday, 3/20, DETAILS INSIDE — Page 5

i could come in the afternoon, but i think im planning my own shindig for dinner that night.

id prefer a pay for whatever you eat scheme as opposed to a minimum. oh and wheelchair accessible would be good too...

Very true.

The pay-as-you-go method keeps things looser, and is easier to manage.

Next goal: to find someplace that would welcome a disparate group of folks dropping by.

Emcee, I thought I addressed your particular question earlier (see below), but perhaps I could have been more clear.

As I see it now, once the place is decided, folks can simply drop by within the hours posted. So there is no need to actually RSVP. The fact that you're interested is sufficient to give me an idea of the level of interest. So far, over 30 BWW folks have expressed their desire to participate. Perhaps there might be a Bway star or two to drop by as well.

More to come. Jose'


March 20, NYC, in the afternoon

At this juncture there is no cut-off time.

This might be a very loose event, i.e., just show up.

I am speaking with several restaurant managers about some options that might be open to a party of 25 or so.

I'll have more info later this week.

Alright, just making sure it's not really strict. I may not be able to know where I'll be until the day before or something, but be that the case I still might want to drop by.

Nicely done, munk.

I might be in Chicago that weekend, but if I am in NY, I'll stop by.

Well if photos are taken and later posted you can always obscure the person's face by placing a black bar across their eyes.

This is NOT "a sit down thing."

It will simply be a gathering at a Times Square area watering hole so that folks can meet and greet, and put a face to a name (if they want to). I'm told that some are coming with brown bags on their heads, but no matter.

While some of you believe I am ogre, please know that this get together is open to all. A hearty welcome to all BWW members (and their parents ) who care to drop by.

That welcome even goes to the BWW member who left a rude nuisance phone message on my business voice mail at 1:37am this morning. We both know who you are.

I'll be posting the location soon, and I'll try to send a PM to everyone who has expressed an interest in dropping by.

Sorry Sueleen,
I already have plans on that date. I don't want anyone to beg. I can't go.

Liam, you are "meating" us. Gee, that sounds interesting. Do we get slapped with meat?

---

And I would just like to say "thank you" to Jose for arranging this. It's not an easy thing to do, and someone always ends up being unhappy with the arrangements. So no matter what they turn out to be, thanks, Jose!

Belly up to the bar boys!

Don't know if this is still being asked, but I too feel it should definitely be a pay as you go thing. And also, bar-wise, I'm sure there would be definitely be some of us like myself between 18-21, so that would be a bar problem.

I'm not certain, Ebonic, but I believe it may have something to do with Megan's Law.
