September 13th, eh? I’ll do my best.
4:00, Sept. 13th at Chuy’s…sweeet.
I say, how are we going to recognize each other?
I can always wear my Richard Nixon mask…
As somebody said in a 'fest organizing thread a long time ago, just look for the group of people who look like they don’t belong together.
Altough wearing masks is one of the things newbies are required to do at their first Dopefest
And buying everyone margaritas. Don’t forget buying the margaritas.
Margaritas will be no problem. Just made reservations for the weekend at a hotel right next to the capitol, just a few minutes stagger from 6th St. Thanks to my job, the rooms are $46 instead of $117 a night. Plus the $10 for parking, of course.
If I can’t figure out what table to go to, I’ll be the guy standing on a chair belting out Skinny Puppy’s “Spasmolytic”… Find me, and shut me up.
I’ll wear my flower hat. 
Hey Gang!
Well, although I cleared my schedule change with my big boss, my mini boss has other plans for the person I’m going to switch with, making her work some other funky deal, meaning I’m screwed and won’t be able to make it.
Unless we all want to meet at a more lunchy time, like, oh…noonish? Anyone? If not, that’s cool, just make sure you eat a burrito for me…
Noonish works for Darth Nader and me.
Noonish works for us, though it’ll be a long wait for the bats after that, and margaritas won’t be quite as much fun that early in the day…
El Elvis Rojo, maybe you should email the folks who already committed to 4? Whattya think?
Put me in for a tentative.
Put me in for a tentative as well. I think I can make it up there on the 13th. Either noonish or 4ish works for me, since I’m just driving up from San Antone. Not sure yet if any of the rest of the Bear clan will be joining me, though. Luminousman is at UT Austin, Bluebear just started at Schreiner U. in Kerrville, and who knows where Mr Bear will be that weekend.
Re-reading that last, I now officially feel downright old…
Woohoo… Finally another Batdopefest with bats. Maybe. It will be great to meet the newbies and to see other fellow dopers again.
hugs everyone enthusiastically
Of course, for me, noon means I’ve already finished an 8 hour work day.
Anyway, it was just a suggestion. It does leave a good, what? 6/7 hours till the bats come out, but it gives us plenty of time to enjoy our meal But if it’s a problem for anybody, then we shouldn’t worry about it. We’ve had a few people speak up about it, is there anyone who would have a real problem with meeting earlier?
If I’m gonna make the drive, I can rollover to a noontime meeting time. We just have to stretch it out a bit to make the bats (or, go over to the bridge and wake 'em up early - don’t poke the bat, Dad).
Lest we forget.
Saves me from bumping the thread.
Sploosh!
OK, so that was a bump.
Ya know, I was just about to do a little bumpage of my own.
Saturday at Chuy’s sounds great, but what time exactly?
And would anyone be up for a visit to the Ivory Cat after the bat action?
I’m wondering about the time myself. Twelve or four?
I’ve never been to the Ivory Cat before, but I’m up for trying someplace new, provided I can find a place to park.
I’ll be there, too…let’s just figure out this time thing. Four sounds better to me, but whatever works best.
