Uh-Oh. Sounds like it could turn into a trivia contest… Pick a character that was only on it once or twice… Looser buys a round… Hmmm ---

I’m here now, so I guess you can hold this gig. [font size=small]Ducks clatter of flying objects.[/font] Thanks **Ringo** for the heads up. I keep meaning to stick my head in MPSIMS and see what’s going on, but it just doesn’t happen. I’ll plan on attending. ---

_wonders if **LIONsob** is still going to be alive on the 15th…_ **Irishman** glad you’re joining… we would’ve had it without you, but it wouldn’t have been QUITE the same… 😃 ---

Ok so obviously I’m new to SDMB, and to Houston (see location). Well I’m not in fact here (there?) yet, but am in the process of moving to Houston and will be arriving on the 7th, so I can make the dopefest. Hopefully I’ll be able to make some time to post more and lurk less while I’m organizing this move, so I’m not a complete stranger at dinner. Looking forward to meeting all of ya’ll soon. I am a friend of Jin’s though, so I’ll be coming with her. ---

Looking forward to your joining our eclectic ranks, **TheFunkySpaceCowboy**! And I think you’ll know people better than I will - only one of the group have I ever met before through a cow-worker happy hour… And what Addams family member will _you_ be? 😛 ---

Hey everyone, my friend’s band is having a show on the 16th and I might be going on stage to give the birthday boy some spankings… I will be bringing info on the show with me to the Dopefest if anyone wants to come. 🙂 ---

Jin’s computer ist kaput! She’s forcing me to read SDMB posts to her over the phone, and too reply for her too. I think she has some sort of internet addiction 🙂 The aforementioed show is going to be at a place called the “Engine Room” which I’m told is a downtown club. Jin will be bringing maps and directions to the show with us to the dopefest. Cheers. ---
