OK, Portland, we have unfinished business. →[More:]

First order of business: When
I can't do the 18th, unless you like seeing bald men shaking and crying and complaining about their job, so I propose Friday the 19th.

Second order of business: Where
Ringlers on West Burnside might have booths large enough. I can't think of anywhere else. Ideas? I know I'm not the only drunkard in town.

As an enticement for braving the cold, I will photocopy pages at random from the October 1993 revision of AT&T PARTNER Plus Communications System Release 3.1 Programming Guide, carefully attach stickers of ponies on the upper right hand corners, and give them to you with my blessing.

NOTE: I may not actually do that.

What we need is a chill. A hang, y'know, or maybe a squat. Someone with a covered patio, some kind of balance between smokers and not or something where we can share a bunch of beer at sub-bar prices and play some board or strategy games or listen to our own music or otherwise just be stupid.

Just a general FYI, but god willing & the creek don't rise, I plan to be in Portland either the first or the last week in May. To see y'all. So start planning.

My house only has two chairs, so it's out :-(

I also like the eastside idea. 'specially with the bus mall getting all weird and confusing now.

Yeah, seriously. I like trains. Trains are good. Anything suitable on the red or yellow? We could do also pub crawling via said trains as a posse. Drunken goecaching? Photo-scavenger hunt?

Also: Does anyone have a patch of floor I could crash on after meetup night so that I don't have to leave at like 8 or 8:30 to make my transfer home into vnc? I can depart quite early once the peoplemovers start running again. I'm usually pretty self contained and don't shed much.

Also-also: has this been on MeTa?

No post to the grey yet, no.

Do we really need to turn it into a MetaFilter meetup? Those are always such big productions.

posted by cmonkey 16 January | 01:28

Aye, we make tools because we have to.

Friday is good! Another vote here for eastside, but I veto The Lucky Lab...

And MGL, really??? That's awesome!

If we could get one of the larger booths at the Goodfoot, I bet that would work.
