DC Meetup

 

Monday, October 27th — Washington, D.C.

I’ll be there for an AEI event the next night — which I’m pretty sure is open to the public; details to come. I’m hoping to get James Lileks to come in a day early, too.

Let’s meet somewhere fun and festive, to raise a glass and do whatever voodoo rites we need to for the midterms the following week.

Safety in numbers!

Who’s in?

    PsychLynne:I’ll be there. I’m a federal employee, we usually start drinking around 2 on Mondays…

    That’s my time of day.  I’ll be there.

    Rob Long:

    Albert Arthur:Rob…Aren’t you in New York City right now? And you’re arranging a meetup in D.C.? What gives? Where’s the love?:-)

    Working on it!

    You’d better hurry, I’m moving to New Hampshire on Oct. 31! :-)

    If anyone wants to get a drink tonight in Brooklyn with me and Von Snrub:

    After two years in southern Taiwan wondering why there was a never a Ricochet meetup there, we’re back in the USA and very excited to attend our first community event.  Count us in!

    Are we expected to bring baked goods?

    I’m game…. and if necessary I can scrounge up a hazmat suit for it–works for politicians as well as ebola.

    Having not been to a meetup before, I don’t know how this decision is made, but I would nominate The Hamilton on 14th and F as a location.  Big place, big bar, big tables, for big kids like us.  Food’s good and not too expensive.

    I can probably come, especially in DC or near suburbs rather than way out in VA

    Kinda bummed … I was seriously thinking about driving up from NC for this, because I didn’t want to miss a chance to meet Rob Long and James Lileks. (Oh, and any other Ricochetti who will be present.) Unfortunately, I’ve ended up with a class scheduled for that week so I can’t get away. I hope this won’t be the last such opportunity!

    I don’t eat anyway (the whole “Jew” thing). I am in favor of anyplace with little or no background noise: we are coming to talk to each other, not try to make ourselves heard in a loud place.

    Okay, ya’ll, if you said you were coming in either thread I have made you a name tag (two pms sent) and there will be blanks.

    VERY IMPORTANT:  the Redskins are playing the Cowboys in Dallas on Monday Night Football.  It might get a little raucous.

    Hate to miss yet another opportunity to attend a Meet-Up. Between a Scout meeting and soccer practice, I won’t have time to get down there. Have fun guys!

    Thank you, PJS.  I wish I could claim mine, but I now have to be out of town at that time.
