Checking my calendar, it is time once again for the DC Lunch Bunch to meet. Who’s up for it? Who will be there? We’ll meet at noon outside the 14th Street exit of the McPherson Square Metro station. Olentzero? RTFirefly? Anniz? Montfort? NoLongerPatrick (I forget your new name and can’t look back since the threat is so long)? Sqrlcub? Speak up so we know to expect you.
PS: Geobabe, for you lunch begins at 11 a.m. (so you will make it by noon. 
) Set the alarm for 8.
So do you guys have fun when you meet? No food fights? Does anything change after IDs are revealed? :eek:
Anniz and I will be in Florida tomorrow morning, so we’ll have lunch at noon and think of you all eating without us.
Have fun, and we’ll see you in two weeks.
Can’t remember my new name? Man, it’s like three posts above yours!
I’m in.
That depends on if you’re planning on showing up.
Yeah, this week I got work to do but I don’t care. Will see y’all there!
Heh. Can’t make it this week anyway, so 
So it was the Core Four of us again - yeehaw! We hope some of the irregulars will make it next time, and also Aguecheek (whom the Oxford English Dictionary proves correct…) 'cos dcnewsman and I promise not to make fun of his whimsical Canadish accent. We’ll even throw in a dozen glazed egg-salad donuts as a peace offering. 
I sent you an e/mail with a link for the cite. And next time I’ll bring a tin cup so you can throw coins to the “performing monkey.”
NoLongerPatrick.
No…wait - NoLongerNoLongerPatrick.
Hold on…NoLongerJohnathon.
What the hell is it again?
…and I’m gonna miss it.
Yes, folks, the dentist decided it’s high time my wisdom teeth finally came out of my head, and they’re scheduled to come out at 10 AM tomorrow morning. I mean, theoretically I could probably make it, but I’d be too anaesthetized and sore to be much company.
Dat’s OK, though, 'cos the next Bunch is on me boithday so’s you can all bring me presents.
Oh, wait. No it isn’t. I’ll be at that one anyway.
I’m due out in Sterling, VA all day tomorrow, as I’ll be migrating a web site from one server to another.
Anniz might go without me, but I think she was leaning against it yesterday when we discussed it.
Have fun!
I won’t make it tomorrow - got a presentation to give in the late morning.
Sorry I missed last time - the wife’s health problems have kinda gotten in the way of everything else this month.
Well, it looks like just me since no one else said they were coming. I guess we’ll just have to skip this week’s luncheon.
Whereas Friday, Nov. 2 is Olentzero’s actual birthday, and
Whereas the last Lunch Bunch was cancelled due to presentations, wisdom teeth extractions, web site mitigations and pissy bosses, and
Whereas I got talked into buying a copy of a socialist rag from a street vendor,
I hereby propose that we have a special meeting of the Lunch Bunch this Friday, Nov. 2, outside the 14th St. exit of the McPherson Square Metro station.
Anyone up to spanking the birthday boy?
Sounds good to me.
Yeah, but did you actually read it?
Hmm, I don’t know. I was out the first part of the week (Anniz and I both caught something icky at the party last weekend), so I have a lot of catch up to do. Plus, I’m still easily-exhausted and walking five blocks doesn’t sound like fun for me. (Or, I could take the Metro.)
I’ll see how it’s going here at 11.45, but don’t wait for me.
cough wheeze sneeze
Yes, I read through your propaganda. Even saw that there were several meeting listed in DC including yours in Mt. Pleasant.
See you at noon.
I’m sorry I miss your birthday lunch,
but I’m to sick here going into the city.
I’m going to crawl back to bed here now.
Have a great time everyone
and happy birthday Jeff.
we are scheduled to do lunch today, Nov. 9. Who’s up for it? Noon at the 14th street exit of the McPherson Square metro station. And I can even talk with Aguecheek in Canadian after my trip, eh?
