Civilians more than welcome.
Only a week and a day away!
Just heard from my friend M, who’s come to several of these dinners; he’s got us pencilled in. That would make the list:
cainxinth
Cleophus
Doc Cathode
Koldanar + 1
MsRobyn
NinjaChick
ryobserver
twickster + 1
ultrafilter
Possibly jayjay and supervenusfreak.
Day: Saturday March 22nd
Time: 6 PM
Place: Pietro’s, 1714 Walnut Street, Phila.
We have to bow out, unfortunately. We have a scheduling conflict that I forgot about until supervenusfreak reminded me today when I asked him about going to the dinner.
I guess we’ll see some of you at Gettydope then!
Bummer! Better luck next time …
And another “bummer” – just got a PM from Koldanar, who’s thinking of wussing. I told him a last-minute change of heart would be okay, so maybe he’ll still show.
cainxinth
Cleophus
Doc Cathode
Koldanar + 1 – iffy.
MsRobyn
NinjaChick
ryobserver
twickster + 1

Day: Saturday March 22nd
Time: 6 PM
Place: Pietro’s, 1714 Walnut Street, Phila.
Dunno if they take reservations or not, will call them probably Saturday to give that a try.
If anyone would like my cell number, PM me – if you think you already have it, you probably don’t, since I switched numbers a month or two ago.
Note – it’s not too late to say “yes!” Hope there are a few fence sitters out there who decide to join us.
Still in the calendar, but now I have the address! I’ll also make a note to leave at 2 p.m. or so to account for the hellacious Surekill traffic.
And as long as nothing comes up, the lovely and talented (well, I think so) Airman Doors and possibly the sprog will be joining me. 
Robin
Final bump.
My friend M will not be joining us … making the list look like this:
cainxinth
Cleophus
Doc Cathode
Koldanar + 1 – iffy.
MsRobyn, Airman Doors, and Aaron
NinjaChick

twickster

Day: Saturday March 22nd
Time: 6 PM
Place: Pietro’s, 1714 Walnut Street, Phila.
We’re kid-free for the evening. Let the debauchery and stuff begin!
Robin
Shoot, I’m going to have to bow out of this one. A friend of mine is in town for one night only, and since I haven’t seen him in a few months and probably won’t see him again for another few months, he’s going to take priority. Sorry - I feel terrible, but he didn’t know his plans until this morning even.
Have fun without me, though!
Never mind. Aaron wanted to come.
Robin
That’s okay – I’m past my prime, debaucherywise, anyway.
Just called – they do NOT take reservations – so whoever gets there first, go in and get a table for ten and leave the name Cecil Adams at the podium. I’m coming in by train (and will have to swing by the ATM) so will probably not be terribly early.
Ok, I’m back to confirming; I got a good amount of work done during the week
We got home safe and sound. Our car was not towed, and we didn’t get so much as a parking ticket. We did, however, get a tour of Port Richmond and the suburbs along 476.
Robin
Glad you made it home safe and sound – and also glad y’all came in the first place.
Fun evening, all – we should do this more often! (But order enough pizza next time…)
Between the pizzas and salad, I thought we had enough food, but you’re right. We could have had a third and it wouldn’t hurt. I enjoyed the spinach and mushroom a lot. I wonder if my local pizza parlor has that.
