Houstonians in Mefi-ville... fancy a pint at The Flying Saucer or another drinking establishment that meets your lengthy criteria?

I am in Houston for about two more weeks before I head back to Korea, land of the crappy brew. I am open to venues. Wanna get your drink on at Onion Creek? Cool with me, they have good sandwiches. Partial to The Saucer? Whatever, you beer kneard. Just as long as yo duon't want to meet at The Volcano. I worked there for two years and can't stand the owner. Time and date may vary.

P.S. — I'm drunk as I write this!!

Obviously.

I may be available, depending on the date. I work about four blocks from the Saucer, so that would be convenient.

Aw dang it! I work all day Saturday. Have a good time all. The weather is suppose to be beautiful that day.

Aw poo, I've got the kids to amuse during the day. I'm probably not available until after 5 or so.

After 5 for me, too... :(

Would y'all prefer weekends or weekday? I'm here with nuthin' much to do until the 19th, so I'm open. We could meet Monday night at the Saucer? Say 6 p.m. for happy hour?

St. Arnold's is also great but they tend to get very busy for the tour.

Monday at 6 would work for me.

We're planning to be at St. Arnold's anyway. ;-)

I probably won't be able to make it to the Saucer on Monday, but have fun!

Okay, Flying Saucer, Monday at 6 p.m. it is. I'll see you there.

Hey I can maybe make that!
posted by dog food sugar at 7:31 AM on March 11, 2007

Sorry guys, but I've got to cancel. If anyone would like to try again another night I'd love to make it.
Sorry for the late notice.

Okay, well, since it looks like no one can make it, I'm gonna go ahead and cancel too. It's an awkward time for me. If anyone still wants to meet, email me (in profile) otherwise I'll assume it's a bust.
