Well, if I end up not going to a friend’s wedding, I’d like to be there. Just say where and when.
You’re just looking in the wrong places, check the alleys, Times Square, and possibly with some of the classier prostitutes. Don’t settle for crack, they’ll try to sell it to ya, but let’s face it, Crack aint Dope. I’m sure you’ll find what you’re craving for. Good luck! I hope you don’t OD or anything! 
Sorry, but you all know I had to do it.
Where’s my side of FUN!?
Kisses!

TIMES SQUARE???
Oh, jeez, Ophy, you haven’t been to New York since the Disneyfication, have you?
The only dope you will find in Times Square these days is Goofy.
Um, not this weekend or the next and I might make it (ie. not the 17th or the 25th). Oh, and I’d need a ridedown from cornell. Zette and Daniel live nearby…
I sold my soul to Satan for a dollar. I got it in the mail.

How about this? Saturday, April 15 at Acme Eats on Great Jones. Acme eats is a big-ol cajun place. Good food, big tables, lots of alcohol, reasonable prices, vegetarian (but not vegan, IIRC) selections. I’m thinking fairly early, say 7:00 or so. That will let us beat the crowds and allow lots of time for bar-hopping later for those so inclined.
From there, we’ll make our way to any of several bars in the area. Given enough notice as to crowd size, etc., I can probably get us tables or booths at any of several dive bars in the area <g>. That will allow our younger doper friends to join us for the first couple of hours without dooming us to a TGIFridays or something like that. Also, since Acme is not kosher, our observant Jewish friends can join us at the bar late enough not to require any prohibited activity prior to sundown.

That sounds great, Manhattan. Where is Acme, exactly? I mean, what neighborhood?
Great Jones St. (which is really 3rd St.) between Bowery and Lafayette (maybe Lafayette and Broadway. I forget right now). I guess it’s technically the East Village, but it’s on the western edge of it.
Biggirl: You betcha, you can see how normal and balanced I turned out. Oh, wait a minute, I’m a kook. Nevermind.
Hey, my friend Amber is driving with me, is it OK to bring non-dopers who are not spouses?
DON PEDRO: Your silence most offends me, and to be merry best becomes you; for, out of question, you were born in a merry hour.
BEATRICE: No, sure, my lord, my mother cried; but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born. -Much Ado About Nothing, Act II, Sc: i
Fine call, manhattan! I’ve always liked that place. The waitstaff are idiots, but they’re cute as the dickens.
It’s between BROADWAY and Lafayette.
Actually, JUST off Lafayette, on Great Jones.
A mighty good neighborhood for bar-hopping, too.
I knew manny would come throught with a location. All looks great to me. So glad so many can make it.
I like it here-can I stay?
And do you have a vacancy for a Back-scrubber?
So, after I drop off my taxes at the post office I should head to Great Jones between Broadway and Layfayette. There I should be on the lookout for a cat, a two man band, a vegetable, the island of Manhattan, the first gene, the hobbit’s brother and some wet questions.
What train and stop is this?

The closest would be the Bleecker Street stop on the IRT East Side local…the number 6. (“We want information…information…INFORMATION…” {slap} sorry.)
If you’re coming in from north Park Slope, take the D or the Q…from south Park Slope, take the F, to the Broadway-Lafayette stop, and it’s just a short jig up from Houston to Great Jones.
If you’re really from the Slope, we’ll be able to recognize you by the Birkenstocks and the Food Co-op tee shirt.

I’ll be the girl. The big girl.
I’m on 5th Ave. in the north. 5th, the DMZ. Enough cash to make it out of the industrial wasteland below 4th but not enough class to live passed 7th. Oh well, if I eat enough organic food perhaps I’ll get an invitation to a lovely corner brownstone. All I’ll need is 1.2 million dollars.

SwimmingRiddles- Of course you can bring whoever you like, we’ll be needing a non-doper sacrifice anyway.

Yeah, that’s why manhattan suggested the Acme. They’ll cook your catch for you.
Well, my trip planner claims this would be about 560 miles and nearly 10 hours of driving time. While that ain’t out of the question at some time in the future, I’m afraid I’ll have to take a pass this time around. I already have plans for this weekend. If you guys do this again later this year, I’ll see what I arrange. I’d really love to make the NYC trip.
Enjoy yourselves.
I’m just a short jaunt up the Metro North New Haven line from the city, and I’d love to actually meet some Dopers(don’t let the post count fool you, this is a new name; though I didn’t post much in either of my other incarnations, so so I guess it’s kind of irrelevant anyway), so I’d be all about coming down, if you’ll have me.

The more the merrier, I say. Of course, what I say doesn’t count for much. Just look at how many threads I killed.

Well, didn’t want biggirl’s self fulfilled prophecy become…well…fulfilled! I’ll ditto the more the merrier comment. Come on down Lux. Besides, this may be the only chance I have to meet you NY Dopers and I want to kill as many…errr, I mean meet as many of you as I can.
