Wish I could attend, but probably can’t. I’ll be in Lake Charles, LA that weekend with the family, but I think I have to leave for Ohio Friday morning (if all goes well…)
Is there a cut-off for RSVP? Shall we just wander in if we can make it?
We will be in NO for T’giving and might be able to make it. However we prob won’t know until the last minute.
My wife and I will be in NO for New Year’s; if things go well for your Thanksgiving get-together, throw out what y’all will be doing 12/31 (asides from, well, the obvious). Have fun!
NinetyWt, I have no idea if there is a cut-off for an RSVP, as I still have no idea what we’re doing. I suspect we’ll need a pretty accurate head-count for dinner, but not for drinking/schmoozing afterwards.

Did I miss anyone?
The ghost of Huey Long?
I will call li’l sis tonight. NinetyWt, no cut-off, make it if you can, should we successfully post a plan.
You just wanna see if I’m bringing a bazillion tiny cubes of red jello with me.
Actually this is just a <bump>
<Monday morning bump>
<another Monday morning bump>
Any further thoughts on where this thing is gonna be?
New Orleans perhaps?
I vote for Bella Luna’s
Unfortunately, our plans have changed and we will not be going to NO.
Hope ya’ll have a good time ! Since I won’t be there, at least you will have someone to talk about.
Bummer.
One more week, kids.
I just sent the following email to anyone who thought might join us Friday that has their email public:
This is coming up quickly - who is still planning on joining us? Also, we still don’t have a designated place. Bella Luna was suggested by bordelond (not included on email since no email addy). Someone else should really make the decision on where to meet, not me or UncleBeer.
Looking forward to seeing whoever can come.
A denizen of Nuwhalins has forwarded the following suggestions:
I’ll probably finalize my plans Friday at which time, should there be no other input, I’ll make a call on one of the above. OK with y’all?
Thanks, Ringo. CMC also told me in email the Bella Luna was also good. Doesn’t matter much to me, as long as it’s someplace quiet enough to talk.

And since I rarely speak, I don’t really care how quiet it may be. Right, porcupine?
Well, it’s time to start the two-a-days.
I’ve looked at Dickie Brennan’s Menu, Bella Luna’s Menu and the Redfish Grill Menu, and none are cheap, but they’re not too bad, and it is New Orleans dining. So, unless somebody really doesn’t like the idea, I’m going to make the call:
New Orleans Thanksgiving Dopefest will be:
6:00 PM, Friday, November 29th at:
Dickie Brennan’s Steakhouse <click for map
716 Iberville Street
New Orleans, LA 70130
(504) 522-2467
I’ll be driving in on the 29th, staying at the Astor-New Orleans and leaving the 1st.
What’s our current headcount? 6-8?
Well, bumpage will be heavy for the next few days. Sign on!
