This is turning into a pretty big orgy… er, dopefest. That’s what I meant.
[/sub]Heh, cool, I’m gonna score…
actually, probably not…[/sub]
Pay no attention to the mutterings in the middle of this post…
Alright, so somewhere in Quincy Market at 1…anyone got anything more specific?
It’s looking pretty unlikely that I’ll be able to attend; I am absolutely up to my eyeballs in school work and graduate applications and what all. Yeesh.
'kay, back to those 19C photographs of Japan…

Plans

-the Nields concert for those interested at 8pm Sat in Haverhill
Did I get it all? This is going to be fun. I’m a bit confused about the goat, though…is there usually just one, or do coffeecat, Totoro, and I each bring our own?
Um, so Quincy market is kind of a big place, and considering I’ll recognise like 2 of you all, maybe we want to be more specific?
Hey, all. I’ve just recently moved to Boston (which is the reason I haven’t been on the boards in, like, forever- thread forthcoming just as soon as I can get internet access in my apartment), so as far as BoDope, I’m 'bout it 'bout it. Do we have a more specific location than “Quincy Market?” I’ll recognize some of you, but that will do me no good if the people I’ve met aren’t there yet. Or something.
I’ve missed you all terribly.
Pfft. I move cross-country just to be close to you East Coast Dopers, and you reward me by leaving my name off the “Coming” list. Pfft, I say!
I’ll be there. WickedBlue and I will be arriving together I believe; I get to navigate. (ROFL, me navigate! I can get lost in a paper bag, but don’t tell her that.)
So let’s firm up a place at Quincy Market to meet… I don’t know Quincy Market well enough to come up with one off the top of my head, but someone will I’m sure.
Unfortunately, it looks like I’m not going to be able to make it. I have a huge paper due Monday and a definite lack of funds. Gosh darn it, I was really looking forward to meeting y’all, too.
Just checking in, does anyone need a ride from the south of Boston area? Or does anyone want to meet me at the train station and ride in together in case we can’t find the giant mob of dopers?
Um, giant mob of dopers, anyone who knows where we’re meeting care to pick a place? I mean, people will be able to pick out Jennifer and I from our vibes of homo love, but I don’t know about the rest of ya.
"…Spock!..I…don’t know what’s happening! Vibes…of homo love…burning out the sensors! Too strong! Too…strong!
“KHAN! KHAAAAAAAAAAAANNN!!!”
Ahem.
I know precisely jack diddly-squat about Quincy Market, so I defer to someone who knows what he or she is talking about. Who will take the mantle? Who will lead us?
hahahahahahahaha!!
Too funny. I plan to wear my tin foil helmet to protect me from unwanted vibes.
But seriously folks, anyone in Boston wanna give a more specific location. Anyone? Anyone?
Of course, you will be able to spot me 'cause I’ll be the only one with a blindingly reflective head. Plus, I’ll be with the guy with the goat.
That’s it: tin foil helmets. As long as we all have them on, we don’t need to find a specific place to meet. Just show up at Quincy Market at 1pm and look for others wearing tin foil helmets (most likely we won’t even have to look; the foil in the helmet will direct us to other helmets). Eonwe and I are going to Boston on Friday afternoon and staying through the concert on Saturday. Anyone looking for time to kill Fri night/Sat morning? Maybe hit a cafe in Little Italy for Sat breakfast? Looking forward to a fun weekend, see y’all there.
[sub]tin foil helmets —> my new favorite band name possibility[/sub]
As much as I like the idea of tin-foil helmets, I don’t want to wear it all the way on my train ride. Maybe just one person should wear the tinfoil helmet, or meet in the middle of that big market place, right next to the stairs that lead to the comedy connection. That’s pretty good.
If anyone actually does show up in a tinfoil hat I’ll buy you a drink.
Oh, the middle of the damn place sounds just fine to me.
Tinfoil hat is ON!
I’ll be the chick with the pink leopard bag. It’s hard to miss…
Whee! I can’t wait!
Oh, quietgirl and I are dragging along one or two friends. One of our best buds lives in Boston, and we simply must take the time to see her.
By the time you read this, Eonwe and I will be on the road to NEDopefest 2001!!! woooo-hooooo, oh yeeeeah, den ne ne dun den ne ne doobie, shoobop shoop, uhg uhg ugh, ohhhhhhh… hah!
Gah! Why did I think this was on Sunday? I must do some fast and furious consulting to figure out how I am going to get there, as my car is ill. But I think Wicked Blue will meet me here in Providence, and all will be well… so hope to see you all tomorrow.
Any final meeting place decisions? I’ll try to wear my rainbow scarf, if it’s not warm. I’ll be the tall skinny blonde with the stud in her nose.
