Care to take a space in the **Evil Bed®**? (Assuming you’re male, which you could not be…)

Nope, it doesn’t. So what will it be ? Hurley’s or the Saint-Supplice (so as to increase the cnaces to meet **Barbarian** ) 😃

On preview, I noticed that **Daerlyn** has appeared. Care to join us on Friday the 28th for a drink or two ?

OK I remember it now… So do we want a mini-Montreal/QueerDope this weekend? At some point, I’m going to be busy taking in Bunny, since my best friend will be leaving Montreal forever :(, and I have to watch Bunny for a while to make sure she doesn’t lose her litter training and start chewing stuff because she’s in a new environment…

Sorry **Scott** , not male, and currently dating a straight guy. . . he’d probably take it the wrong way. 😃 I appreciate the offer though.

Hey, just 'cause the orgy’s cancelled doesn’t mean I’m not interested anymore! How come I always get left off the list?

Next thing, scott’s going to tell me he “lost” my app for the Evil Bed.

Sorry, I thought tha pun was well known.  
St-Supplice = St-Sulpice

The pun is based on the Sulpician order who used to run some schools in Québec. They tended to be harsh with the students so, naturally, they were nicknamed _Suppliciens_ (in English, torturers).

Just got off the phone with **matt**. He’s leaving Thursday, the 27th. He was hoping we could have a mini-Dope tomorrow (June 24) but I don’t know if it’s possible. ☹ We could still do something in his absence this weekend, and raise a toast to him. 🙂

I’m up for a mini-dopefest, especially if **Daerlyn** ’s coming (gets my mom off my back!)

I’m not busy the next few days.

**Daerlyn** , it is located on the west side of St-Denis, between de Maisonneuve and Ontario. It’s fairly easy to find, just follow the crowds.

As for meeting this week, I wouldn’t be available until Friday myself, unfortunately.

**Laur** , honey, I’ve been asleep most of the long weekend, so I’m really in no shape to go out, considering I have to (pretend to) work tomorrow. ☹

I know **matt** ’s leaving Thursday, so if you guys want to go ahead and do something, that’s cool. Otherwise, we could always do something this weekend.

I also have to spend the week bunny-proofing my place, as Bunny will be coming back to live with me this weekend. Having lived with her before, let me tell you, it’s a more daunting task than you’d think. :eek:

**Barbarian** has indicated he was in Montréal this week with indication he would be in either Hurley’s or the St-Sulpice on Friday.  
**matt\_mcl** is leaving for Spain this Thursday.  
I suggested we gather to introduce ourselves to each other and maybe plan something for this August Dopefest (like, find out who’s turn it is to bring the goat :D).  
Now, I intend to be at Hurley’s this Friday around 8 PM to see if we can meet, everybody is welcomed.  
Alternately, **matt\_mcl** has indicated that he would be at the anti-G8 rally today at Parc Lafontaine tonight around 6 PM, that is another potential meeting, so let me know…

I can probably make it to Hurley’s for a bit on Friday evening, but I’ll still be scrambling to bunny-proof my place if she’ll indeed be coming to live with me on Saturday.

How will I recognize anyone? That place gets pretty crowded…
