Whee, friends for me to play with on Friday- I’ll shoot for the 10th and 24th.
I’m in for this Friday, the 10th.
Bluesman and I may try to come hang out on the 24th. Where does this party usually happen?
Like I said, I think I can make the 10th. The 24th is a bit iffy right now, but I’ll pencil it in (always wanted to say that 
).
Noon on Friday - I’ll plan on being there.
Lucretia - we usually go to the Au Bon Pain right across the street from the metro station.
See the rest of you Teeming Metropolitans there!
Reminder: this is Fri., Jan. 10.
Last call! Lunch Bunch in 1 hour 35. Anybody else in?
Roger that Olentzero, the USS panache is ready to sail. Launch in 5…4…3…
My maybe has increased to 85%.

Another great lunch hour - welcome to our newest member, Super Gnat - plenty of discussion on how to get into law school, with some sidetracks on cartooning and childhood injuries and deformities.
Keep an eye out - next Bunch is scheduled for the 24th.
Bump.
That, and I might be able to make it to the 24th. My first Lunch Bunch. Exciting. 
I’ll try to be there on the 24th.
Yet another…
Bump.
Hey, I know we aren’t supposed to bump old threads, but the thing is tomorrow. Just to serve as a visual reminder, ya know?
Occasional bumping of Dopefest threads (before the fact, in order to remind people that it’s coming up) seems to be accepted, and the Lunch Bunch is a Dopefest of sorts, so I can’t see a problem, Soup.
Barring any surprises at work tomorrow morning, I expect to be there.
Boy, it is really freaking cold out.
I’m going to try to get there. God only knows. Since tomorrow is a day off, and it’s also the first day I am eligible to donate blood again, I may give blood. In that instance, I’ll likely be woozy somewhere and in no shape to find my way to Au Bon Pain by myself via Metro.
I’m in for sure. Anyone else brave enough to wait in the cold snap for 10 minutes to ensure everyone who’s going to show up has, is welcome to join.
Olentzero,
It is both my honor and my privilege to join you in the *##$% cold to await the others…I will show in coat, gloves, earmuffs, and a tablecloth sized scarf. I will be hard to miss in my abominable snowman state.
One question though, anybody feel like branching out? Not that I don’t love Friday’s Pumpkin Soup at ABP, but everything else there tastes a bit stale. There’s pretty much the equivalent across the street - right next to Sizzler…anybody willing to take that leap?
Mmmmm… what about Potbelly’s… Although there isnt much room to sit and chat in there…
