> [@Rick](#): > > NO problem, we told them you would be back to pay the check later tonight. You should have seen the look on that poor waitress’s face as we filed out! Her eyes filled with tears, but we had some intimidating guys with us so she just kind of swallowed and heaved a heartbreaking sigh. So, I guess we’d better find a different place for the next gathering. Thanks to the organizers for organizing! Eagerly awaiting pictures now. ---

I don’t remember exactly but BevMo’s Older Brother was closed and I got home around 7:00. I’d say we got out of there around 4:00. ---

I finally understand what your name means, tr0psn4j ! I was the second to leave after EJsGirl and I left right before 5:00 PM. I’ll be posting the pictures tonight or tomorrow night. ---

Everyone, a pleasure as always. Next time on a Saturday so the field trip to Bevmo’s cool older brother can happen? ---

I was the last one to leave, I think. I hung out at Borders for another hour till my ride got there. I had a good time, though. Hopefully next time we can finally go to the cool liquor store. ---

> [@ctywkr](#): > > Everyone, a pleasure as always. > > Next time on a Saturday so the field trip to Bevmo’s cool older brother can happen? Bevmo’s Cool Older Brother seems to be open on Sundays too. They were just closed that day for some sort of “memorial.” ---
