Philly Meetup

Philadelphia MeFi Meet-up Reminder:

This Saturday (June 24) meet at The Society Hill Inn in Old City at 3 pm. I'll be waiting in a visible spot with a "MeFi Gathering" sign. Also, dmd says he will be wearing a distinctive bright green STEGOSAURUS shirt which should be easy to spot.

From there, we can walk over to the Northern Liberties Music Festival sometime after 4 pm.

If anyone has any questions, needs directions, or can think of anything else that I forgot, please add to the post or send me an e-mail.

See you all there!

I'm a very fair-skinned redhead with very, very short hair who will likely know some of the staff members of this establishment. Which is, by the way, on the corner of 3rd and Market, in case anyone is too lazy to Google it or too shy to e-mail galimatias.

I would be there except I will be in NY on my way to NH at that point. But I'll be back in Philly by Sunday night, in case you're still going strong then.

Have a cheesesteak, or some cream cheese or a hoagie on my behalf.

I'll be there! I'm not very distinctive but I'll probably be threatening dmd at fork-point eventually, if that's helpful...

I'll be there as will my girlfriend (monochromaticgirl). Ummmm, we'll be the fat dykey looking ones...

Weather Update: If it rains tomorrow, like it is supposed to, we are still having the meetup. Meet as planned at 3 pm, and we'll figure things out from there.

galimatias, if all else fails you and I can sit around musing over lovely-sounding obscure words while I dare you to eat organ meats.

desuetude, that almost sounds like it could be an odd MeFi drinking game . . . you're on!

Thanks to galimatias, dmd and miagaille, misanthropicsarah and monochromaticgirl, and filmgeek for a lovely late afternoon/early evening. Looking forward to the next gathering.

To the 'burb-ites: If you lived in the city, you'd be posting on Metafilter right now.
