miniPorkDope - Saturday April 5, Minneapolis

It’s quick, it’s impromptu, it’s pork.

We’re meeting at Famous Dave’s BBQ in Uptown at 4 pm. Late lunch, early dinner, keeps most people happy, annoys the fewest, if you hate me, then send me mail and I’ll remember it forever and whisper your name to myself each night before I fall asleep and someday I’ll get you and your little dog, too.

Plans for after lunner (I swear that if we get ‘brunch’ from breakfast and lunch, we should get ‘lunner’ for lunch and dinner, damnit.) are as of yet undecided. Quiet romantic walks around Lake Calhoun, a showing of Raiders of the Lost Ark at midnight at the Lagoon, a second bout of pork-eating, you name it.

I’ll be there with bells on, but I won’t have any bells.

I’m gonna have to bow out of this one.
:frowning:
Probably.

I should be able to make this.

I’m in!!! Is there a specific place inside of Dave’s where we will be congregating?

I ate at that one once. I think they basted my pork with kerosene. Now, kerosene is a valuable commodity, and it certainly has its uses, but it leaves much to be desired as a marinade.

I hope y’all’s chow is much better. I don’t think I can make it 'cause I’ll have my kiddo this weekend, but who knows? If I’m there, I’ll look for the guy wearing no bells.

Mmmmm - pork marinated in kerosene…

I’ll be there - come heck or high water (and probably the latter if the weather forecast is correct).

Sorry lno, I won’t be there. Just because I hate you.
Leave my dog alone, you perv.

I’m at 90% probability.

Dang it, I really wanna go! Me need pork!

El Hubbo is waffling.

Rysdad- bring the kid! I’ll be bringing LilMiss as her dad kinda forgot to tell me he was moving this weekend. Oops.
:wally

GfH- you must come, you have the nifty sign.

GfH–I don’t think Dave’s has waffles…

Sorry I can’t make it, guys. I’m going to be in Green Bay this weekend.

I’m in. See you there!

My wife is dragging me by the hair to the North Shore. Just in time for 6-12 inches of snow up there.

Dear god I hate snow.

Why does your wife hate us so much? Has she met us? Does she resent the time you spend on-line? We are friendly, kind, decent people, mostly. And yet, every time we try to get together with you, she makes other plans and uses force to involve you in them. Should we all come to your house and be charming until she agrees to let you go out with us?

I’m planning to be there, lno, if you need a count for the table.

Wish I could go. I loved that place! :slight_smile:

Sorry. I’m out. . .

Just bad timing.

Tripler
Consider me there in spirit, though.

Will there be a sign? Depends on whether Gazelle is bringing the one from a week or two ago. Either that, or look for the confused young man eating lots of pork. That may well be me.

That, or I’ll just look aimless for a while until other people show up. Soundsl ike a plan to me.

I can’t get a plane ticket on two days’ notice! :smiley:

I’ll try, depends on hubby and kids (both who are just getting over being sick). I might bring my little ones.

Just you my dear, just you. :smiley:

GfH , you’ve got to get the el butchero out for one of these events. Anyhoo I’ll be making this one for sure, and hope to see the rest of the gang as well.
