Dude, that's like three hours of none of us really talking to one another, and something we would likely be doing on our own anyway, sooo.

I'm cool with whatever. The only caveat being that I am unsure of what my exact vehicular situation will be, and so something closer to the Ferry Terminals would probably be a safe bet.

In that case, I vote for meeting for the book store crawl at the Soundview Caf� in the Pike Place Market. Then after exhausting the possiblities of the Market, we can wend up Stewart or Virginia to Zanadu Comics, and eventually down to Elliot Bay Book Co.
Unless you don't mind taking the bus, which we may have to do anyway to get to Hooters -- unless someone at dinner will have car space for everyone. *chuckle*

P.S. I saw the first two installments of the LotR trilogy in groups. I've seen all the Star Wars movies in groups. You get to nudge each other when something cool happens, you get to see other people's reactions, and you get to talk about it after. I think it would be fun, but we'll see...

And I'm sure no one wants to see Return of the King with me, since lately I've been all about the Marxist deconstruction. But, come on, who says Gondor even wants a king? Especially one who harbors notions of a Numenorian master race.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

And everyone wear fake facial hair. When the pictures show up, we'll no doubt hear Liam's head exploding, all the way across the Atlantic.

Does this apply to my girlfriend, as well? And do I have to get rid of my real facial hair?

We appreciate your concern. It is noted and stupid.

I'm in. Someone should have told me about this topic earlier.
If we haven't already settled upon a meeting place (a couple of candidates have been mentioned alreaddy)... Zeek's Pizza, near the Seattle Center (at the Chief Seattle statue)?
It would give you guys the chance to drop by the Infopop offices practically next door, thus get the chance to thank the man employing me and thus basically keeping this place afloat.
I shall provide a camera and another dose of facial hair. However, Liz will probably castrate me if the resulting photos show up online.

I was under the impression the boards were directly plugged into your brain, and you were aware of every post, even as it was typed.

Charles, I'm with TSN - I just assumed that you know everything that is said in this forum - ever.
And I'm still quasi-in, maybe, we'll see.... it's all about the road conditions and all.... got in a car accident on weds, and I WASN'T going over an icky pass, so I don't know that it's safe to try to drive to Seattle right now. We'll have to see what the pass keeps doing as the time gets closer.
Unless I fly. Which may happen anyway, since I'm wanting to see my Gay Boys for Christmas. But I'm not sure if that's happening yet..... I keep having REALLY bad, depressing days, and when that happens, I shop, so now that I have a new wardrobe, 3 new pairs of shoes, a TON of new CD's, and Satellite radio, I'm feeling a little bit better, but my money supply is massively dwindled. Figure that out
Anyway, we'll see.... make your plans and I'll see what I can come up with.
And no pictures. Charles will die. *smite*

WOW, a real life bearded-one encounter. What will I say? Whatever will I wear!? What to say!?!
Meeting up at Zeek's Pizza with a potential InfoPop tour after we're good and soused sounds entirely appropriate to me. Would we be able to see the servers on which this board is being hosted? God, that would be kinda weird. And cool. I may need a ride from the Ferries. Not sure.
LOA, we'd love for you to make it, but I'm sure we'd understand if you couldn't.
I will bring what facial hair I can muster, but it's probably going to be somewhat disappointing among the parade of proper beards.
