Shall we meet outside the restaurant at 12.45pm? If it is really cold, assume that we meet inside I guess, but outside is easier in terms of determining who is who. I will wear something distinctive… ---

This Sunday works perfectly for me! I’ll be looking for the Cecil Adams party at 12:45. Anybody want to take a walk around the old part of the Princeton campus after lunch? I’ve actually never been through it. ---

> [@What\_Exit](#): > > …[directions]… For those who have never been to the Triumph, it is quite difficult to actually spot. It’s a little skinny doorway on Nassau street that opens into a very long brick-lined alley that takes you to the restaurant, which is behind the other businesses. [I think it’s the door with the arched window over it](http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=princeton,+nj&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=58.337319,56.162109&ie=UTF8&ll=40.350072,-74.658199&spn=0.003479,0.003428&t=h&z=18&iwloc=addr&layer=c&cbll=40.350097,-74.658099&panoid=SGZcnh6DgeV3tudjcBh-Ag&cbp=12,338.5754641458172,,0,-3.735126808391562).
