How cool is all this? Way cool.
I’m in for any restaurant, as long as they have some vegetarian options.
A Renfest dopefest would be very very good.
Hey, I’ll take a shot if I can give someone one of my dog’s allergy shot doses. 
Hold on a sec: just whose definition of “Dopefest” are we working with here, people? :dubious:
So, about cow patties and the things that grow in 'em…
Just a quick bump to make sure more KC area people catch a glimpse of it. But whilst I’m here, can anyone, thus far, not make it on the 27th?
::bumps as it falls off the front page again::
Gary T, do you know if we’ll need to make reservations for Figlio’s? I suppose I could always call and ask, but it’s much more fun waiting for a reply!
It’s been a while since I checked this thread. So far who is coming, SkipMagic ?
I asked for it off, and I have spoken with withaK and he is planning on coming with me. (Sucker, I got him to drive this time, as I drove to the Dopefest in Rock Island)
Just let me know where you decide to meet.
Have a great day, Everyone!
I’m here. I’m not queer. Get used to it.
I’m a comin on the 27th but I’m leaving town June 30-July 21st so I ain’t gonna be able to plan anything. “But Ender,” you say in shocking shock “you never actually volunteered to do anything in the first place.”
“Yes,” I reply. “That’s what makes this so shocking.”
Don’t cry for me Venezuela. Just think of happy thoughts. And Boston Cream Pies. mmm…creamy goodness.
On July 20th we’ll have our planning meeting for those who are able to plan things. The only item on the agenda will be voting on who gets to pick up the tab.
Does this mean anyone who doesn’t want to be the one picking up the tab, must attend?
No, only Iowans will be picking up the tab. I think it’s in the Straight Dope Dopefests’ By-Laws somewhere.
::searches through the papers::
Yep! Sho’ nuff! Looks like you folk from Iowa are stuck with the bill. Sorry it worked out that way, but, you know, these rules are ineffable.
SkipMagic,
I laugh at the rules.
Lets rock, scissors, paper for it the day of the event.
Im game for this, since i live in Kansas City… WHo is bringing the dope?
auntie em is marrying one, so does that count? 
Anyway, welcome to the Boards and welcome to the latest Dopefest! It’d be great to have a “newbie” at this shindig. You, my friend, get to wash dishes!
Ain’t that how it’s supposed to go?
Well, so far it looks like:

The Unnamed One
Did I miss anyone? I think that covers all the people unless I inadvertantly left one poor soul out. Seems like we could have a heck of a big group if everyone will come! Coolness.
. . . and just think, this whole tradition started because SkipMagic wanted to get into my pants . . .
Figlio has confirmed that they have several vegetarian items among the buffet and pasta selections, as well as over a dozen different salads and a number of meatless dishes (with eggs or cheese). I went ahead and made a reservation for 15-20 people for Sunday, July 27th, at noon.
What, he likes cross-dressing? How come I wasn’t told?
What name is the reservation under?
Please say Cecil Adams.
So, are we goinig to call it a day after Figlios or are we going to the park afterwards (anybody up for disc golf at Swope Park?, or a trip to the Nelson? Kemper…)
The park, and/or the Nelson
Or the Red Light District if we’re feeling frisky.
