ChiDope Lunch Bunch?

The only Stocks and Blondes I’m finding is 36 N. Wells, just north of Madison. I assume this is it.

That’s it, porc. Calhoun is a glorified service alley; the next major street up is Washington, I believe.

I can reservedly allow myself to be called talented, but I think you’re gonna have to do double duty on the lovely part.

Stocks & Blondes sounds good. I’ve heard about it, but never been there. We are still talking about lunch and not after work drinks, right?

Yep, lunch. I’ve never been there - does this place get packed and if so, should we plan on either an early or late lunch, or is noon ok with everyone?

As before, I am very flexible as to time. Just say when.

Lunch on the 29th at Stocks and Blondes sounds good. The sammitches and quesadillas are really good there. I’ll warn, though, that it’s a bar and smoking’s allowed, so if that’s a problem for anyone, we can move locations. S&B tends to get busy and it’s a smallish place, so getting there early (11:15) or later (after 1) is well-advised.

And yup, it’s on Wells, just south of Washington. West side of the street.

Although I’m tempted to say we should have it further south, just so Gundy arrives all sweaty. :smiley:

Is a late lunch a problem for anyone (say getting there at about 1 - by the time we all congregate it’ll probably be a bit later)? I’m a late arriver to the office (I don’t come in til after rush hour) so 11:15 lunch is a bit early for me.

I second **porcupine. **

Late’s good for me. I can’t promise sweat (especially if I share a cab with Abe Babe) but maybe I’ll do some jumping jacks before I walk in just to make you happy, Zanshin baby.

Late, early, late and early, …

Just please give this a bump when 5/29 rolls around so I’ll remember to send my regrets! :wink:

We can always have **Gundy ** run alongside the cab for the last block or so. Sweaty and out of breath. Hubba hubba

. . . and might I add, hubba.

About 1 on the 29th at Stocks & Blondes, yes?

This is coming up next Thursday, so here’s a bump.

I’ll see your bump and add a grind.

You people are dirty.

Yay, lunch with dirty people! I ain’t backing out yet.

Back that thang up!

So is we meeting outside like last time? Seems easier to find each other that way, though I think we all know each other now. I’ve met everyone who’s on the guest list, anyway. :wink: But maybe we’ll have some surprise guests.

How about we meet outside just north of the door? 1pm on the 29th at Stocks and Blondes.

Perfecto. See you all then!

(Oh boy, jumping jacks!)

<bumpity bump>

Hmm, should I get a haircut?

I saw the thread near the top and thought, “Yep, it’s about time for Dinsdale to cancel.” Glad you’re not!

Abe, still planning on going? Wanna cab it or should I depend on my trusty ol’ Schwinn? If we cab, we’ll have to figure out how to meet up at Division and State.

Gonna try to make it.
