We ought to go get a beer sometime. I need to meet more people around this place that are not completely impervious to reason. It might give me a better impression of the populace in general.
Beer, eh? Must be part of your nefarious plot to reduce the preemptive quality of my posts. Yeah, that’s right, I’m on to your little scheme. But on the other hand, it is beer, so I’m game.
I like getting a drink at the bar inside Pappas Bros. I say this because, when I say, “get a beer”, I mean that in the generic sense and may get something better. They always have what I want, no matter how far afield my thirst may wander.
Of course “The Flying Saucer” usually doesn’t suck either.
The Flying saucer? Good little bar! Let me know when and I"ll toss back a pint with you. I used to pimp food for the Pappa’s Co. and they are way overpriced even for a beer, as I remember…
Yep, if all I wanted was beer, Pappas wouldn’t be my first choice… But, if you happen to be really serious about wines, brandies, ports, and the like… I’ve never seen a better selection anywhere.
As for when: As it so happens, the SO has a massage and adult tumbling scheduled for tonight. I have lots of time to kill.
You are very clever, scotth. It’s well known that The Clique[sup]TM[/sup] silences its critics. But, you’ve thought far enough ahead to offer them beer. Yes, very clever.
And of course, you’ll never even tell us when they let you join.
Today is out because I’m busy with briefing in a couple of cases. (Not for the Clique–the cheap bastards never pay their bills.) But the Flying Saucer sounds great to me, and I’m sure I can get the future mrs. green to join us. If tomorrow (Friday) sounds good to you, why don’t we call it for 7:00 p.m. at the Flying Saucer? Probably could put a quick announcement over in MPSIMS and see who else wants to join us too.
I suppose we could ask a mod to move this thread to MPSIMS, but I bet somebody will be by here to flame me for real before long.
There’s a Flying Saucer on Greenville? Not according to the Dallas Morning News, the phone book, or the Flying Saucer web site. I was planning on Addison. If anyone can confirm a Flying Saucer on Greenville, though, I’d be very happy to avoid the drive to South Oklahoma.
Robb: You mean the (Texas) Fifth Court of Appeals in Dallas? You can get copies of briefs by going (or sending someone) down to the clerk’s office. You have to pay for the copying, of course. The Texas Supreme Court is starting to post on its website the briefs on cases it has granted review, but the courts of appeals are not doing so yet.
