Yesterday, I worked from 7 am to 2 am. Open to close. That was after I sat on the side of 95 for almost hour, under the impression that my closing manager could work as long as he had a ride. Then the tow truck wouldn’t go without him. So, he was supposed to go home, get a car, and come back. I never heard from him again. My DM is ripshit…heads will roll. I was really looking forward to meeting everyone…any way we can plan a makeup day sometime before October? ---

Works for me. Anyone else care to chime in? ---

Sounds fine by me. I rarely check MPSIMS though so if a kind soul could notify me some time I’d love them forever. ---

We should start a mailing list 🙂 ---

Well davebear was wrong… using my go go gadget technology I was able to sneak pictures of our little group 😉 [Davebear](http://www.kaczorzoo.net/BeanDope/DaveBear.jpg) [Tanookie](http://www.kaczorzoo.net/BeanDope/Tanookie.gif) [Achernar](http://www.kaczorzoo.net/BeanDope/Achernar.jpg) [Robot Arm](http://www.kaczorzoo.net/BeanDope/RobotArm.gif) [Parallax](http://www.kaczorzoo.net/BeanDope/Parallax.jpg) Oh and if you wanna see the munchkin she’s got enough flipping pictures off our website. That can be found using that handy www button under my post 🙂 A mailing list would be cool and August sounds good by me… we need that long to figure out what the heck we’re gonna do!!! 😉 ---

LOL! Good likeness of me, too! You know, I’d never noticed the WWW buttons, before. And, your munchkin apparently doesn’t photograph well (like me). Because, (unlike me) she is much cuter in person. Oh, and I really liked your Dead Pets Zone. 😉 As for the next go-round, I’d suggest, as I did last night, one of the many quality establishments dedicated to the fine art of pocket billiards. (A pool hall, to you lowlifes out there.) The food may not be as good, but the atmosphere should be more conducive to cutting loose a bit. Thoughts? ---

Hey not all my pets are dead 🙂 Pool sounds fun… I’m not very good at it but who cares right?! Oh and where are all the lady dopers? While it is flattering to be surrounded by gentlemen at dinner there was no one for me to disappear into the bathroom with for half an hour 😉 ---

I’m a lady doper! Me, me! Pool is fun, even if I suck at it, and by then, all bars will be nonsmoking, so tanookie wouldn’t have to worry (or anyone who doesn’t like smoke. I was refering to the concern stated earlier.) Your munchkin sure is a cutie, too. ---

I’m a lady Doper, and I should be around in August. Email’s public, count me in on this mailing list. ---

I like the idea of going to Gillians or Jillians or whatever to play pool. 🙂 ---

Okay, sorry I had to leave right after dinner last night, but I had to go do a thing with a person in a place. Anyway, I’m just getting back in, and I wanted to say, I had a great time! Everyone was really nice. Great idea! And I don’t check MPSIMS that much either, so that mailing list is sounding like a good idea to me. 🙂 ---

Hmm, since I’ve been _volunteered_, I guess I accept. So if you want in on the offical “Boston Dopers” list, drop me an email at [pinkpammi@aol.com](mailto:pinkpammi@aol.com). And, if anyone knows how to start a mailing list, drop me an email on that as well 🙂 I’ll figure this out though… ---

Okay, I lied. Send emails to [BostonDopers@yahoo.com](mailto:BostonDopers@yahoo.com) . At least that way I can pass along the power along if I get sick of it 🙂 ---

Just checked the logs for our web site and I’m getting a complex now. We have the following hit counts on the pictures: DaveBear = 23 Tanookie = 18 Robot Arm = 15 Achernar = 14 Parallax = 12 I see how I rate around here. ☹ 😃 😛 ---

Well, missed this thread completely somehow. I may be in for the next round. I’m low count, but long-term, can I still be part of a clique??? 😃 And for reference, I’m from Central MA now, but grew up about 20 miles west of Boston, went to school in Boston and used to live and work darn close. And I played lots of gigs in town, once at the Orpheum, even! (Just in case the whole post count thing failed to get me in, that ought to do it. :p) Pammipoo, sending you an email. ---

Well I have to go 'cause Davebear will punish me if I don’t. No wait. Dave will **refuse** to punish me if I don’t. Yeah, that was it. (So theoretically you got my e-mail?)
