I live on the island…but I’m too much of a newbie to come to one of these things. But…where’s it going to take place? 
MR
it needs to be called “Redux 2: The Electric Boogaloo”
I am not suggesting places to meet. I wouldn’t want to make Joe_Cool feel uncool.
Joe, can I be “Turbo”?
Darn, and I thought Swiddles was going to force herself on Manny…
I’ve got an idea, but I’m too much of a rookie to go first. (But I did come up with a list of places for Slythe that you might find helpful. You might want to look that over.)
Do you think lack of internet access will stop me from a NY Dopefest? Funny, hubby was just asking when’s the next one as if these are a regularly scheduled thing.
Do you have a plan? Places to visit, things to see? Looking for advice? I’m sure everyone will have an idea. Whatever you do, stay away from large crowds of drunken Puerto Ricans.
Somehow I don’t think Manny would fall victim to my charms. Just a suspicion.
We could do the Chinese thing this time. I’ll bet we can fill up one of those family style dining tables. Dim Sum, anyone?
I’m okay with dim sum
For dim sum I’d even try to get there. Yummy!!
SS, I’m not knocking your choice of eateries. I liked that place, but I wanted to beat up our waiter. haha
Well, damn. This thread is a lot less exciting than I hoped. Ah, it’s just as well. It’s been so long for me that I don’t even remember who ties whom up.
Dim sum is fine and all, but if we’ve got people willing to come into the City early enough for dim sum, why don’t we try to do something that Cecil would be proud of. Say, the new dinosaur exhibit at the Natural History Museum or something?
Did someone mention dim sum? Where’s Wonko?
I can try to be there, but I may be away. Keep me updated.
And like every other man on this board with a pulse I am sure he will worship you forever. 
Joe, I know you were just trying to be funny, but I find that really offensive. You should take into account when you’re making your little “jokes” that some of us may have been mauled by a breakdancer as a child. I’ve still got track-suit burns, to say nothing of the four-fingered-ring scars.
As always, I’m down for whatever. Although I do have a special place in my heart for dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum. Hell, I’d go just to see the whale again. That thing never fails to strike me dumb, for an instant, with awe.
I’m here. I’m in. I say we go to that place upstairs near the end of mott. Who’s with me?
Is this where the Hoople is?
Here are my plans for My Week Of Fun: Not much. And I plan to keep it that way. As this is my first solo vacation ever, I want to wake up in the morning and say “Gee, what do I feel like doing today,” and probably think “Go back to sleep, you ding-dong.” Then, when I roll out of bed a few hours later, I’ll probably walk the pooch and eat a pretzel.
Nah, just kidding. I want to hit all the ethnic neighborhoods, see as many exhibits as possible, park (yuck yuck) myself in the park and watch people for a long while, go clubbing with friends (not too easy a thing to do in Burlington), and reeeeelax. I simply can’t wait. My parents are New Yorkers, so we did all the touristy things as kids, so those don’t really interest me.
And Lux, I think we’re all a little afraid of breakdancers.
What in the zarking fardwarks is a Hoople?
Wonko,
Mott The Hoople was a band. Not top be confused with Mott in C-town/LI.
