I’m going to stay home and nurse my poor scratchy throat. Sorry to miss meeting **Shalmanese**.

I also had a poor night’s sleep, though I doubt anyone unfortunate enough to have seen it would describe it as spectacular.

Regardless, I will be there.

**Shalmanese** , I expect to be there early to get a good table, maybe around 6 or 6:30. Just ask the bar staff for the host’s group.

Probably schooly. Possibly there.

Definitely there. Of no help to you whatsover. (Also, if you want a shot at free beer, the question’s up on Seattlest.)

If anyone’s still checking the thread, I’ll be there…  
Even if they’re not still checking the thread, I’ll be there. But you won’t know that in advance.

And **Shalmanese** , if you’re still reading, I’ll be the one with the _Watchmen_ comic.

I am at the OP, and have staked out the table at the window by the stage. So if any new brains show (eww), they can find us without asking. If they’re lucky enough to check here at this late hour.

I’d like to bring my used brain out for an evening of challenging questions. Tonight’s a good night for me and my brain, so we’re planning on going to the Old Peculiar tonight.

It’s probably worth mentioning now that the Old Peculiar will not have trivia next week, since it’s an Irish bar and next Tuesday is St. Patrick’s Day. Should we plan to go somewhere else? Maybe do a Monday or Wednesday venue? Skip it for a week? What say the team?

I’m planning on being there this week.

Next week, I can do Monday but not Wednesday (unless we go to a kid-friendly place on Weds).

I’ll be there this week. Next week is still up in the air, though I suspect I might take Tuesday night to go to a movie or something.

Oh, and lest we forget: US Presidents and Candy are the two official requested rounds, and Aaron often does a USA Today-based current events round

This is the last week of classes. Next week is finals. I will try to come out during Spring Break, Baby! (Woot!)

Tonight it is me, my Coptic assignment, and 100+ Hebrew vocab words. Well, and the BF and the dog.

(Future ones) dropmom wants to give me her '92 Mustang, on the condition that I drive it back to Chi. Past experience: spent too much time drinking with my bro and talking with some Doper’s parents. Projected experience: Drinking too much, starting late, and driving too far.

I’m guessing the above post wasn’t intended for this thread. If it is supposed to be here, I’m afraid I don’t understand it.

I don’t think I’m going to be able to do any evening activities tonight or tomorrow. Working late. May also have to do it Wednesday, so I suppose I’m out for the week.
