Great and Christmas cards...oh boy that means I have to make a quickie run to the local store...haven't made them out.Rob Wilson wrote:Well don't forget some of us will be having a little dinner on Saturday night as well. Right, my train leaves in 5 hours. I have to sleep, so I'll see you all on Friday. Don't forget Chistmas cards.
One other thing, Dalton, IIRC you said you're taking the LIRR, so erm...how shall it work?
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

OK, I finally have things settled. I will be coming up Friday afternoon. Greg, unless you're planning on coming home Saturday night or very early Sunday morning, I'm going to drive myself up since I will have to work on Sunday.
Looking forward to seeing you guys!
If anyone needs to reach me phone 302-737-8127

The Hard Rock Cafe is on 57th, which is where dinner is tomorrow night.Soontir C'boath wrote:Oh never mind, was thinking of something else. And I thought the theater was on 42nd?

If the A doesn't stop there, you can just hop on the F then from where you are if you're anywhere west of 179th street.
To get to the theater, the easiest thing to do would be to take the E to the Port Authority. If you're on the F you can transfer at Union Turnpike.

It's not the 10 bucks that I miss, its the fact that I've been keeping it in my wallet, thinking "Soon now. Vrey soon. Preciousssss" every time I looked at it.Dalton wrote:Well, it's only ten bucks in the long run, and your health is more important - considering that we don't want you getting us sick

Alright! The movie and Friday's went pretty well. Highlights of the day...
Me. I missed the 11:39 train, had to take the 12:39. Got to the theater at 1:31 PM, a minute after the scheduled movie start. Everyone was waiting for me
Got in, got the tickets, wound up in the neckcramp seats. Jason turned up like some sort of "theater ninja" according to Rob.
Soon after the movie starts I am handed a box of donuts. I hate you guys.
After the movie: we split into two groups. Greg, myself, Rob and Lee head up to Greg's rental car and haul it to the Friday's, getting stuck in 11th Ave. traffic for a good half hour. Still get there an hour before Phil (who knows the area) and the rest of the entourage. I proceed to have a rum and coke on an empty stomach, draining it in under five minutes. My head buzzes worse than after the three I had the previous night.
Later on at Friday's we get to meet Phil's cute friend Kathy. Rob hits on her.
Shortly after that walks in a tiny woman with humongous, obviously fake knockers. Phil seems to know the man she's with. Hmm. Me, Rob and Ghost Rider decide to spend our time hanging out IRL to talk about...Stardestroyer.net. Whee!
That's my night. And fun was had by all, I assume.

Because like an idiot I go left out of Jersey City instead of right, turning a 20 minute trip into an hour and a half!! I'm still pissed at myself.
Yeah, Kathy's sweet when she's not hitting you in the head with a calculator and drawing blood.I proceed to have a rum and coke on an empty stomach, draining it in under five minutes. My head buzzes worse than after the three I had the previous night.

I've known Terry and Rhiannon for years. And she wasn't as "pumped-up" as she could have been. I mean that literally. Look for her on the cover of the forth-coming Cleavage Magazine.
Plotting their imminent coup....Me, Rob and Ghost Rider decide to spend our time hanging out IRL to talk about...Stardestroyer.net. Whee!
I did. I just wish I didn't have to drive those extra 2 hours home tonight.That's my night. And fun was had by all, I assume.
It was great seeing the crew from the last time as well as meeting Hotfoot, Soonir, Ghost Rider, and Macao. All whom I've never really spoken to on the board. Definately a plus getting to know them.

I went in at 1:29 thinking I somehow lost you inside and so I just went up by myself lol.Dalton wrote:Me. I missed the 11:39 train, had to take the 12:39. Got to the theater at 1:31 PM, a minute after the scheduled movie start. Everyone was waiting for me.
This was when I went inside, and there were a ton of people sitting down already and I'm like shit. It didn't help that I left the phone on with it ringing and me stumbling on the stairs so I have people looking at me all the while I went up to the top on one side to check if you guys were there and then went to the other. I stood up there until, I see a dark familiar shadow figure down below and hey IT'S ROB!Got in, got the tickets, wound up in the neckcramp seats. Jason turned up like some sort of "theater ninja" according to Rob.
The most stupidest part at the theatre was, we were all standing outside waiting for Rob and the thing is I didn't know any of the others because I never saw their faces. So I'm standing there like 5 feet away from the rest of the guys in the cold looking around waiting for Rob without knowing it was them lol.
Cyaround,
Jason
