Count me in as well (I’m going to assume that work will cooperate) ---

I haven’t been in touch with him. I wonder if he’s still interested. Maybe we’re too wild a bunch for him! 😃 Should I email him? ---

I haven’t heard back from **JohnM** and the email didn’t bounce so maybe he’s no longer interested. Or maybe he’s too involved with his [cat problems](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=255695). ---

Hey - is there a secret password for this shindig? Just so I know which random strangers I’m looking for. Seems some of you know each other, but me - not so much. ---

**Rockle** – **davidm** and **Scuba\_Ben** are 30ish guys, both reasonably attractive but not intimidatingly so 😉 – **Pandora** is also in that general age range and has long blonde hair – I’m staring 50 down the throat, tallish, plump (plus), dark brown hair with plenty of gray, and I’m wearing a blue, flowered dress today. **Cleophus** I’ve met, don’t recall anything distinctive about his appearance, though (sorry, hon). I think that’s the rollcall – am I missing anyone? And if anyone’s just now thinking of joining us – California Pizza Kitchen at the Mall of King of Prussia, tonight, 7 pm. We’re going to get all our hazing ya-yas out on **Rockle** , so it should be safe… ---

Ah. Thanks for that info. So you all know me - I am 30-years-and-15-days old with a big pink flowery thing in my hair (because I asbolsutely _refuse_ to act my age). I am short, and I will be with my husband the lurker, who is 6’3" or something like that (for all I know he is twelve feet tall - everyone over 5’8" is “tall” to me).
