Oh, and my e-dress is public right now, so click on my name if you want to exchange cell numbers so you can call if you get lost. You probably won’t, though, with those excellent directions. ---

> [@Saltire](#): > > The quiz starts at 8 pm, but you’ll want to arrive a bit early if you can, so we have time to go over your resume ;). > > I don’t know where exactly you’re coming from, but you can probably find Interstate 5. Go north to Seattle. After you’ve passed through the skyscraper section of town, you’ll cross a big bridge. Get in the right lane while you’re crossing it. Take the next exit, which is for 46th Street NE, and turn left, so you’re heading west. The street will do a few weird things, but just follow the traffic when 45th decides to become 46th, and down the big hill, which will bear you northwest a bit. When you hit the bottom, you’ll find yourself on Market Street NW. Stay on it, going west. Eventually, you’ll see a 7-11 on your right. The Old Peculiar is in the middle of the very next block, also on the right. > > If that’s too detailed, you’ll do fine with just “Take the first exit after the bridge, turn left, and follow the road until you see the 7-11 on your right. The OP is a few doors further on.” I used to live on the North Face of Queen Anne; been to Ballard many times. Some friends told me that Lombardi’s closed, which sucks. Where will I get my garlic fix while I’m in town? ---

Late notice but I’ll be there. ---

Thanks for letting me crash the party last night (Sorry 'bout breaking up the team like that). I have now met Dopers in four states and one foreign country. What’s this stuff I read about the 'net tending to isolate people? Had a good time, continued my unbeaten streak, and the blond on the other team was kinda cute; can’t ask for a much better evening than that. ---

It was a pleasure to meet you, **Robot Arm** – thanks for coming, and I’m sorry we didn’t get to flat-out chat more. And we could’ve just split into two teams when our seventh came in, but it’s friendly. Plus we got to win. Ha! ---

The pleasure was mine. There’s a good chance I’ll make it back one of these Tuesdays for more chattage. And I forgot one, I’ve met Dopers in five states. ---

Any Dopers not included on the “Smurf/Holt pizza social” pre-trivia Facebook event invitation are welcome to PM me (or post here) and I’ll send details – except **stargazer** , who is being deliberately excluded. 🙂 For our team I count one definite (me) and three maybes so far – or is that just for the pizza part? Triviawise, who’s in? ---

I’m in for trivia, still on the fence for pizza. I love a good pie, and that place gets great reviews, but I don’t like having to scare up seating space when arriving late. I may decide to eat OP food and reserve our table. In other words, I’m wishy-washy. No surprise there. ---

I’m in, and Cervaise says he’s in for both pizza and trivia, too. Guess I’ll just have to crash that there pizza party! 😉 ---
