At least I _think_ it’s volume 1. Nobody bettera hada DopeLunch without me. I’ma hafta whoop some ass. After seeing **NurseCarmen** ’s sweet thank you in the [What has a Doper done for you?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=236967) thread, I figured it was time to organize another DopeLunch. How does Friday, February 20, at 11:00 a. m. sound? I haven’t had MarketPlace’s BBQ chicken pizza in sooooo long so I’m going to demand that we eat there. 😃 MinnDopers and WisDopers? Who’s in? ---

You picked the day I can’t make it. I’m taking a half day that day and doing my taxes. I knew you hated me. ---

Ditto on the no-good-ness of the date. It’s an in office day, and they’re less willing to scootch around taking time off. How about the following Friday (27th)? ---

Nice try **MissTake**! You’re just trying to get my fellow Minnesotan dopers to hate _ME!_ You’ve obviously, through neferious means, found out that I will be in Florida, warm sunny, sandy beached, Florida on that date. And you want the other Minnedopers to know that and garner a jealousy that burns with the rage of 1,000 suns (But still doesn’t make the Late february Minnesota climate any more bareable). So I will defeat your attempts by _not even mentioning_ that I will be frolicking on the warm sunny beaches of the Gulf Coast. Hah! I’m on to you missy! ---

Oh goody! **NurseCarmen** has invited us to join him in Florida for our LunchDope! That’s SOOOO sweet of you! Will you book me in 1st Class? ---

How about Thursday the 19th? I can’t afford tickets for all of you. Plus, that many pasy white minnesota torsos on one beach could cause permanant cornea damage. ---

Thursday the 19th is MUCH better. ---

I’m guessing this fell through and we aren’t meeting tomorrow. ☹ Are we going to reschedule?
