The moment all you MADs have been waiting for... Gettysdope II!

I was just swapping emails with DavidM about something else, and gave him the heads-up on this.

And my “plus 2” is more likely to be “plus 1,” I think. It’s early days yet, though.

Cleophus, Doc Cathode – either Scuba Ben or I should be able to give you a ride, if you’d like to come.

I have a Toyota. It will be leaving Fairfax about nineish on the great day. It can stop in the local area and pick up up to three passengers. Moderately civilized passengers can expect a ride home, when things get close to over, there at the thing. :slight_smile:

But I’m cute when I growl.

Okay, not necessarily cute, but definitely not anywhere near threatening.

It’s going to be MsRobyn, possibly Airman Doors, but we’re going to be minus the small child. The thought of mud scares me. :smiley: (Seriously, as much as he’d have a good day at the park, I’d like to hang out and visit with y’all. This may still change, though.)

Robin

Aw, come on, there’s only one teeny tiny little mud puddle in the entire park. How much of a mess could one little child make with it?

:smiley:

about This Much!

If anyone would be interested in splitting a hotel room, let me know, contact info should be in my profile. It’s only about a 2 and a half hour drive for me, but I’m laaazy sometimes. :stuck_out_tongue: If I can find someone to split a room with, I’ll stay the night, otherwise I’ll probably suck it up and make it a one-day thing. But I will definitely be there, bearing paper plates and plasticware.

Somehow, I knew that link was going to be to a photo of my little one! :cool:

LOL. She is so adorable and sweet too!

It’s your duty to produce that picture on her wedding day, and remind everyone present of how cute the little mud princess looked. :smiley:

I’ve got a copy of this photo in a box, along with a pic of her naked in the tub when she was 3! :wink:

Nah. You don’t need to wait that long. I was visiting my parents with the gentleman yesterday and my father showed him a photo taken when I was about 18 months old. Sheesh, Dad! We’re not even engaged, yet! If you’re trying to scare him off, you’ll need to try a different tactic. He thinks I’m #@#! cute!

I have five versions in the original 6 megapixel size, if you want them. Email me and I will send them to you. (You can print them up 16 x 20 for that wedding day!)

Tris

A message from one of the non-renewing brethren-Frank #2 will be coming along, and bringing sody-pop. :slight_smile:

Check your hotmail account. :slight_smile:

Iris and I should be there. What should we bring along?

I’m gonna back out on carrot cake again. (No, really, I make it and it’s really, really good. Really.) I’m seeing Liz Phair (acoustic, small venue – swoon) the night before, and I’m not gonna wanna do Suzy Homemaker with her music playing in my head.

I’ll bring Rice Crispies Treats and a barrel o’ snacks (the cheap but plentiful chex mix ripoff).

For people looking for ideas – dawgs and buns, so the lovely Geek doesn’t have to shoulder the meat burden alone (so to speak) – or any side dishes, snacks, or dessert type stuff that strikes your fancy.

Looks like we’ll be there. I’ve got no idea what we’ll bring. I’m sure if Doc gets his way, it’ll be pareve Apple Cake.

Anything you want. Look over the most recent listing of who and what, and make your judgement based on that. So long as we have some semblance of balance between main entrees, salads, dessertitude, and drinkage all will be copascetic.

Shout out to all who have coolers-If you have one or two to tote along, that would be great so we can keep cold beverages cold and also have a source of “clean ice” for those who like a few cubes in their drinks. Ice vendors are close to the Borough Park. Danke. :wink:

Kewl! Mr. Grunty’s first Gettysdope!

I have a cooler, as does HJay. The gentleman has a small, electric refrigerator designed for travelling (it can plu into a car’s cigarette lighter). Shall I ask him nicely if we can bring it along? If so, how persuasive should I be?

If we do bring it and I’m safely off crutches, I may throw in a batch or two of sausage rolls, if anyone will eat them.
