Make that Ghanima + 1.
So now it’s Bucco de Beppo? Sounds good to me.
You’ve never eaten dinner with me then. I’m thin, but I have a stomach like a Tardis. 
In this game of I Can Eat The Most, does Two Hollow Legs trump a Tardis Stomach or vice versa?
How about if I catch a bus down? Can anyone come get me from the station? Please!!!
When are you coming down? psy and I are driving down, so we may be able to, depending on the time and day.
I can work it around your schedules. You let me know what time to be there and I will.
This is going to be so cool, there will be so many Dopers to meet, right here in the Bay Area! 
I really look forward to it!!!
Hey, moderators! Look over there!

Just posting to:
- Remind everybody to keep their calendars free
- Catch any new people who might not’ve seen the thread earlier, and
c) Make sure I’m still invited.
Looking forward to everyone feeling uncomfortable on Saturday night after we get too drunk and act like jackasses on Friday night, Sol.
waaaaahh! I wanna go, but I’m going to Long Beach that weekend to see my 2-year-old godson and go to Disneyland.
Do keep me posted if we hold another one…I haven’t been here long, but I’d love to meet up with you kids!
Excellent. I’ve been practicing getting drunk, and I’ve been practicing acting like a jackass. I can’t wait to do them both at the same time!
I don’t get drunk, but I am quite a strange man. I could manage some jackassery.
All jackassery will be duly appreciated.
I may be able to as well, if Demo can’t. And assuming you mean Greyhound, you’re not more than a couple bucks’ cab ride from either place.
According to wifey, I have pleny of jackassedness to go around. Btw, did I mention she wants to attend as well?
DOPEFEST???.. Pencil in Drachillix and Cyn. Will have to see if we can find a room.
Put me down as “possible” I might be able to swing it, depending upon money and if my friends in SF want to put me up for a weekend :).
I’ll be there, yumm.
We’re getting closer…
Reminder:
Saturday September 4th
Dinner - Buca di Beppo (855 Howard St.) at 6 PM.
The reservation was made for 40 people. I just did a quick count through this thread and we’re at about 30 as of today.
Reservation is under- Shannon G. - CecilFest
Drinks and Bar Activities at Buzz 9 (139 8th St.) immediately following dinner (9 or 10-ish PM?)
Still no solid plans for Friday night or Sunday night, but there are a few of us willing to do something or other, dinner, drinks, maybe some dancing, whatever.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.
Ok, so after talking to the people at Bucca and thinking about the chaos of so many people trying to order group dishes at the same time, we thought it might be better to go ahead and preorder after all. The following list has all the people who are definites or most likely to come.

I left the maybes off the list for now, since we don’t want to over order. So that’s 21 right now. Remember, if we show up with more people, we can always add more to our order at the site. After running a few sample menus, we figure it’ll be ~$30 per person, including drinks and tip.
I’ve created a poll on my LiveJournal: Vote for your preferred dishes here! I’ll order an appropriate number of dishes depending on the results of the poll. I left an extra spot for comments, so if you’ve decided you are most likely going to be going, just let me know there.
I figure we can just go ahead and order garlic bread, bruschetta, antipasti, side dishes and salads without voting on it. If you don’t see your name on the list above but are pretty sure you’ll be coming, go ahead and vote. If you’re unsure, just let us know when you arrive and we’ll bump our order up accordingly.
Let me know what you think about this. If everyone’s cool with this, we’ll adjust our reservation and order this Friday.
Sound good to everyone?
