I'm gonna try!

Ok, I'm gonna really try to make this one. Depends on my workload for the day, but it's looking doable so far. Would someone kindly confirm the place & time for those of us who haven't been keeping as much track of this as we should have . . . ?

Er, never mind. I hit "comments" instead of "more", so I missed the actual body of the post. Sorry.

If this group does not drop by City Lights Bookstore afterwards, then gross negligence will have taken place.

I'll be there but late-ish. If you head somewhere else before I get there, someone call me, ok?

posted by tangerine 19 June | 15:09

Yay, I'm here! Looking forward to tomorrow. Good flight, although someone got arrested for smoking in the toilets. Duh. Anyone wanna come to an Athletics game tonight?

Tangerine, I can't find your phone number. Email it to me or call me tomorrow if you can't find us.

Sweet Zombie Jesus, the really-bad-ideaness of smoking in the airplane lav has been drilled into us for going on two decades now. How badly off was this poor person? I can only hope they were an oblivious non english speaker, or can play one real well in front of the TSA goons.

"My name is Balki Bartokomous. I not know smoking is not allowed? Well, of course not. Don't be ridikalous!"

My sincerest condolences to Gaspode. I thought we were meeting in North Beach. I would have been there with bells on.

Are there TWO (2) Specs in SF? I am lost. I see one that might be NB, the other is way below the mission and the address above doesn't match either. Have I broken the internet?

posted by getoffmylawn 19 June | 18:50

They're talking about the one in North Beach, looks like. I didn't know there was another one!

posted by mudpuppie 19 June | 19:25

I think that other one south of the Mission must be the result of a Google glitch . . . I've never heard of it. The NB address is, I believe, 12 Saroyan Pl.

posted by treepour 19 June | 19:27

This is what I got from google

Watch it change once I hit post!

posted by getoffmylawn 19 June | 20:22

anyone feel like grabbing oysters or something at sotto mare or someplace nearby? Specs doesn't have food. Maybe they have cheese or something. I forget. It will be dinner time, and some of us will be coming directly from work.

posted by small_ruminant 19 June | 20:42

Man, I have arabic class from 6-7:30 in the Financial District. How long are you going to be at Specs? 'Cuz I couldn't possibly get to NB until close to 8pm. I may have to miss this one.

Specs is a little bit hidden if you've never been there. It's in a tiny alley off of 250 Columbus. Near Pearl's & stuff.

posted by miss lynnster 19 June | 21:28

Just show up late. I probably won't get there much before 7:30 or 8 myself.

Miss L., let me guess...you're taking Maher's class?

posted by tangerine 19 June | 22:19

Yup. Wow. Good guess, tangerine!

posted by miss lynnster 19 June | 23:51

I think I will be there! If not, I will be somewhere else that I mistakenly think is there!

posted by wimpdork 20 June | 01:48

Sweet. This is totally like three blocks from work. Walking distance. See ya tonight probably!

posted by loquacious 20 June | 13:59

I will be in class until 7:30 so I'll see if I can pop by afterwards. I'll be wearing jeans, a brown suede coat & a red shirt probably. Brown hair. Probably wearing glasses and looking around the room in a confused manner as though I'm looking for a group of people. People that are probably you.

posted by miss lynnster 20 June | 14:44

Mudpuppie and Lynnster, I emailed you my phone number in case there's any migration or confusion.
