That’ll teach me to read the last frickin’ post. Grr. If I can’t get a ride, then I probably can’t make it. ☹ Anyone in San Fran driving down? I could take a bus down there and meet up with someone. ---

VV, your email came back as undeliverable. Oldie, I sent yours yesterday! WTF?!! I’ll try sending them again, but just in case, why don’t you guys send me an email so I can double check your addresses. Sue ---

I’m going to try forwarding them to my husband’s computer and sending them to you from there. Please let me know if you receive anything, this is starting to piss me off. ---

VV, Union City is probably too far to get early enough. So I don’t think I’m gonna make it. ☹ I wish I could, Sue! I’ll see you at the street fair dopefest though, yes? ---

VV, I sent yours from hubby’s computer and it came back “exceeded storage allocation” Oldie, yours came back “exceeded max message size” So here: Take 280 south to San Jose. You’ll pass 880 and should start looking for the Bird Ave. exit. (maybe 2 miles past 880?) Exit Bird Ave and turn right onto Bird. Go 0.7 miles, make a right onto Iris Gardens Ct. (It’s right after you come around a 15mph curve in the road.) We’re the 4th house on the right, you won’t be able to miss us. I’ll send you guys another email with just my phone number in case you need it. See you here! ---

Got the mail with your phone, Sue…Don’t know what the deal is with the others, lol. Scratch, let’s try for 3:30 at the BART station. Kyla if you’re still interested let me know. Anyone else wishing a ride from Union City BART post here or drop me an email. ---

Any musicians out there? Bring your instruments, wheeze gonna JAM! (No permission implied, given or recognized by hostess.) Whee Haaaah, Chris AKA Zenster ---

I just spoke to Zenster by phone and he has graciously offered to pick up anyone who comes in by CalTrans at the San Jose station and deposit them at my house. He also has full authority to be the music director for the evening. **tradesilicon, danielinthewolvesden** where are you guys? So far we have: VogueVixen Doob Old Scratch Jack Batty and wife Zenster Kyla? Snoooopy ---

CalTrain? Are you kidding me? That’s for nerds! BART is way cooler and is an ACRONYM to boot! If you ride with me you get to ride in a car named CECIL! ---

Doh! Yet another dopefest I have to miss out on. And I only work about 1 mile from ground zero! I’ve other plans, so I’ll have to pass on the party. Thanks for including us South Bay dopers in your plans! ---

Well, I would love to come, however, a few months ago some freinds of mine have announced they were coming into town, and wanted to roleplay, so i already committed there. BUT, I will be only a short distance away, and if you get your phone # to me (thru Gawd, maybe, who has my email) I would love to call, assuming the session ends at maybe 10\>11, find out if you are all not passed out, and drop by to say hello. I could also do some “taxi” service, for those who needed a ride home. 😃 However, ther is a slight chance they will cancel out, and then I am at your disposal. Note, Sue, you live just a few miles away, I live at 4th & Santa Clara! This is scary, you might have even seen my name or picture in the Murky. (No, I am not famous\*, but I volunteer a lot, and write letters, so I appear in that rag a half-dozen times a year). \*or infamous. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/last-chance-to-party-in-san-jose/32393.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/last-chance-to-party-in-san-jose/32393.md?page=3)
