I have requested the 15th off. Either place is fine with me. I let you guys know if I run into any conflicts. ---

Say, would anyone be interested in going [here](http://maximcabaret.com/) after the festivities Saturday night? **Opal** mentioned it in her LiveJournal the other day, and Bill and I are rather intrigued. We’re most likely going, so anyone who wants to join us is more than welcome. ---

Dan suggested that we may want to go to Club Europe… it may have a more broad appeal. We have gone there before and had a good time… ---

(it’s $5/car to park and $10/person to get into Maxim Caberet, btw. Not sure the cover at Club Europe.) ---

We have gone there before and had a good time… [This](http://www.clubeurope.net/Index/interface.htm)? To be honest, that gets a solid “Meh” from me, though of course I wouldn’t try to stop anyone who prefers that over the more “adult” entertainment of Maxim Cabaret. I know not everybody is comfortable with strip clubs. We love 'em, though. 😃 ---

I think I’ve talked **Dear Robert** into coming after work. But we probably won’t go anywhere later because the Falcons are playing. :smack: ---

Club Europe has cages you can dance in. 🙂 That’s what I like about it. Plus it’s open til like 5am. Me? I like strip clubs, too. ---

**jugglerdan, OpalCat, herownself, spoke-, Geobabe,** and I had a great time and good food at Vortex, then after **spoke-** had to skeedaddle to catch the Falcons’ massacre of the Rams, the remaining five headed over to a spot called _Apres Diem_ and had some amazing desserts and more great conversation. **herownself** had to get up at some ungodly hour this morning to commune with some remote native tribe known, in English, as “Morning People”, so she left, and the four of us left standing went to see some rather mild dancers at a club. The moneymaker at that place must have been the male dancer side, they had three, maybe four or more Bachelorette Parties going on, and that side was PACKED. **Opal** and **herownself** , Welcome to Atlanta. **Fiver, Archergal** with or without **Dear Robert, Labdad, Time Like Tears, Enright3, torie, _Deva_, scr4,** and **zette** , sorry you all didn’t make it, but we’ll be doing things as the year goes on, no worries!
