Hey kids, now that the weather’s getting warmer, how about a lunch bunch sometime this month? Downtown? Geek…errr…Greektown?
(x-posted to LJ)
I’m pretty free anytime up til the week of the 29th.
Definitely. It should be sometime in the next two weeks – after that, I’m not sure how much longer I may be working downtown, depending on the job-offer situation.
<hope hope hope hope>
How about next Friday, then?
Sounds good to me!
Damn, you’re good, Gundy!
I guess I need to clarify that “pretty free” means “the only damn day I’m not going to be downtown is the one Gundy has to pick!”
Next Friday is no good for me. Next Thursday is fine, or any other day next week or the two weeks after.
I’ll have to pass as I am now working in Oakbrook Terrace and although our lunch policies are wonderfully lax, I don’t think they’re quite that lax 
I’m all for an after work one, those seem to be more fun (to me) as you don’t have to worry about going back to work all sleepy and you can drink!
Sounds good to me, at least at the moment. If anyone wants to try something besides Greektown, I just discovered that Hackney’s, the classic burger place (with huge blocks of French-fried onions to die for – literally; they can clog arteries at 30 paces), now has a Printer’s Row location:

Alternately, could be a good spot for after work, no?
Friday the 12th sounds good to me.
Hackney’s would be good, too. It’s Moonraker’s old location, on Dearborn.
Sorry, Dinsdale. I was hoping to drop “Luddite” into conversation.
Fridays are almost always bad for me; I see patients that day.
ferret_herder, how about Wednesday the 10th or Thursday the 18th?
I missed seeing the last message - Thursday the 18th is better for me, but don’t plan around me.
Well, we have to plan around someone, so why not you? 
So what say everyone else for Thursday the 18th at 1 pm?
Works for me, so far. Anyone want to make an executive decision on the location?
Thurs, 18th, Hackney’s - works for me!
Sounds fine to me, as long as I don’t do it up too nasty on St. Patricks Day Amateur Night.
Framin’ OJ. I’m in.
I’ll be there at least to pick up my copy of Eats, Shoots and Leaves that Eva Luna had smuggled in for me from the UK.
But also probably for the artery clogging food. Thank goodness Thursday is a “gym day!”
(My lovely wife will not be joining us, nor will Thing 2 or Thing 1.)
Hey, I’ve never been to that particular location of Hackney’s, but they might get busy at lunchtime. Should I make us a reservation? How many are we, at this point?
(Oh, and **jeevmon, * you might not get to eat a lunch as healthy as your usual one-handed weirdness, but nobody will be forcing deep-friend onions down your throat, either. I’m sure they have something reasonably healthy on the menu…)
