Another DFW meetup???

[cryokinetic]

Anyone interested in having another meetup in the DFW area? I'd be glad to offer up my apt for the meeting place.

[shum]

sure!

what is dfw?

[outmywindow]

DFW = Dallas/Fort Worth (Texas), if I'm not mistaken. Shum, you'll be buying a plane ticket for that one! ;)

Nah... I hear the new trans-midwest high speed train tunnel was just completed... wait... nevermind...

[cryokinetic]

ENTP group? URL?

[outmywindow]

Hahaha! As someone who absolutely loves to drive (especially long distances -- such freedom!), I completely understand.

[eyebyte_atWork]

So... what is the verdict??

EDIT: I could bring cocktail weenies

Perhaps. :ph34r:

[earwax]

Maybe - which end of the Trinity do you live at?

I could bring colored toothpicks for the cocktail weenies.

UTD campus. Right on the border between Richardson, Dallas, and Plano.

I guess this means I'll be supplying the mind altering substances?

[raincrow007]

When would this hypothetical gathering take place? Someone should probably confirm various planetary alignments first, so that we may properly procrastinate reaching any result whatsoever.

*wonders if Nighthawk is going*

I'm thinking early August.

Nighthawk better damn well go... I'm his fucking son :P

And he lives 10 min from here

Oh dear lord.
*feels sheepish*


Early August is out for me; I'm booked doing a photoshoot in Iceland.

[earwax]

I'll be in Mesa Verde visiting the Anastazi the first full week in August... But almost any other time is open.

Yeah, a bunch of introverts, cocktail weenies and mind altering substances. This could be fun.

[cryokinetic]

Well... we can work it to be whatever time is best for all those interested.

[raincrow007]

Just so long as you boys don't decide to market your cocktail weenies as a mind altering substance to me, we'll be fine. <_<

I'm in :D

I'm envious. I'd love to visit that area. Hope your trip is a nice one.

[earwax]

I'm looking forward to it. I went when I was a kid, maybe 11 years old, and it struck me as totally amazing.

Hey, maybe raincrow and I can both bore y'all with vacation pictures!

[akirafist]

You really need an ESTP to crash this party.

[kuranes]

I'll be in Mesa Verde visiting the Anastazi the first full week in August...

It's not that far North from there to see Monument Valley and Canyonlands etc. "The f**king Moab experience" dooooood. Natural mind expansion.

Just did a quick google. That is some beautiful territory. May see if I can squeeze it in.

A Tuesday? Hmm, we could meet at the bar (http://www.machenrys.com/) I work at sporadically, and everyone could catch me playing the cello and earwax rocking on his guitar...

...or not...

[earwax]

I will be back by then.

Hmm... that'd be a cool start for the evening... we could also make it on the weekend... that may provide some of the more responsible posters with a more reasonable time frame :p

We do a mean cello/acoustic guitar version of "Welcome To The Machine". :D

I cannot lie, it's true. We rock. :ph34r:

Although I might have to brush up on 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun' ;)


Edit: Oooh, shite. I'll be getting in from my Iceland-Boston-DFW series of flights on the 15th.
REYKJAVIK KEF FI 0631 W 15AUG 1700 W IT 31DEC PC OK
BOSTON LOGAN IN ARRIVAL TIME: 1835
TERMINAL:E

Party at the airport anyone?? It's halfway in between anyway... :D

[abathur]

I might even roadtrip out. One of my best buds from HS just moved out there and I could make a case for seeing him. My parents are, I think, wanting me to go somewhere with them about that time. So the question is: is that my excuse to save money and not go to the meet, or is the meet my excuse to save sanity and not go on the trip? ;)

Mmmmm. I'll try to watch for more details. ;)

[Ponderous]

If I'm in town, I'll be there. If it's sometime after the 15th, but still in August - right now that bodes well for me being in town. :-)

By the way, even if we don't go to MacHenry's, I'm happy to learn about it. Looks like a good place to have fun.

[kuranes]

We do a mean cello/acoustic guitar version of "Welcome To The Machine". :D

"It's all right - we told you what to dream!"

Kuranes wishes that he could be there for the meet.

*Send his astral body to check it out, and remind Meshou *

[raincrow007]

So are we shooting for the 18th [a Friday] now? C'mon cryo -- whip us into some sort of order ;)


*wishes K could show up*

[Nighthawk]

I would do better on a Fri or Sat evening ... Ft. Worth is somewhat of a long drive and I have this problem of having to work on weekdays.

18th works for me. Cryo is leaving for a week or so in Alaska tomorrow ... so don't expect too much guidance from him during this period.

Anytime the weekend of the 18th works for me.

[raincrow007]

Well, we don't hafta have it in FW; that idea only came about because Cryo threw out a date that fell on a Tuesday, and I'm almost always doing the same thing on Tuesdays.

*exasperated* God! You old guys are a pain in the ass! :rolleyes:

If you guys want I can make the command decision.

I'll keep my eye's open to see what the consensus is.

By all means ... you are a J after all. As long as it is on a Fri or Sat.

Despite Nighthawk's glowing recommendations, I vote we let Eyebyte in to the intp illuminati [DFW cell] meeting, but only so we can fatten him up, kill him, and nibble on him with the other party foods.

He's a closet P anyway. You should see his work areas.

[raincrow007]

Okay, okay. We let him organize it, then we kill him. Fair enough.

[eyebyte_atWork]

How about Aug 18th.

That's a friday - either payday or right after payday for most of us.


Anybody have a better day?

Works for me. Location? Cryo wanted to use his apartment ... but there is always Hooters in Addison or Plano ... or the new Wing Stop in Addison looks pretty good ;) Seriously ... any suggestions?

How about Grapevine? That's just the FW side of the airport? (Of course, with my recent move, I would prefer the Dallas side, but I suspect convenience might include a few more from the FW side of the street.)

[earwax]

I think I can find the Macaroni Grill in Grapevine without too much difficulty.

[raincrow007]

Oh good. You can drive then. ;P

I'm such a Bermuda Triangle that I'll wind up in Denmark or something if you don't. :D

Sure, I'll drive... as long as I don't have to wear that damn monocle.

It's alive!

[raincrow007]

*ahem*

[Nighthawk]

OK ... I think I still have a little J left from military days.

Here is what is on the table so far:

18 August at Grapevine Macaroni Grill (http://www.macaronigrill.com/menu/default.asp?Unit_ID=001%2E009%2E0024&ShowMap=yes).
Suggested times: 6:00pm until whenever.

Does this sound good to everybody involved? ... or do we start another round of suggestions? ;)


(I should be available all that week (14-18), because I'll be between jobs.)

Perhaps just make it a little later on Friday? 7 or 8ish?

[Nighthawk]

That works for me. I'm pretty sure it will work for Eybyte and Cryo as well.

Just returned from vacation. And I believe raincrow007 is due back tomorrow, provided she can get through airport security.

This Friday is still good for me.

I'm unemployed this week, so I have time on my hands ... Friday works well for me.

Hey, I'll be chainsmoking in the corner. But it doesn't have to be the same corner as yours if you'd rather make out with Nighthawk's wife.

S'ok, I can take the rejection. Really.

[earwax]

Hey, am I meeting you at your house, or are you meeting me here? Or at macH's or the BnB to get lit before meeting strangers?
Well, it'd be easier on me if you just come to my house. That'd give me a little time to unwind between work and meeting virtual strangers.

I have orange hair too. Except it's long and curly. Actually, it's more red than orange.

[Nighthawk]

I'll be the old guy with glasses and a beard ... about 6' tall. My wife, assuming she goes, is about 5' tall, so we are pretty mis-matched. I'll try to call ahead for a table for 10 ... reservation under Nighthawk.

You can hitch a ride with me, but somebody will have to ride in the "bitch seat" in the back. Only as far as my wife's place of work though. We can take her car from there.

I'm meeting her in Valley Ranch, at her place of work around 6:30. We can prolly fit 5 people max in her car .... 6 if somebody wants to ride in back.

Fuck, don't tell me everyone's going to be all cuddly and paired off all night -- I don't think I could stand that. :rolleyes2

I don't think so ... my wife is SJ and doesn't cuddle in public. Atilla and Eybyte are both NTs. Cryo's SO is an NF though (if she goes) ... so the cuddle factor is high there. So ... only one cuddly pair out of 9 people. Not too bad.

Well thank god for small favors.

Oh and Nighthawk, tell me pleeeease that you booked a table in the smoking section?

[Nighthawk]

I just called ... there is no smoking section >:P

A lot of people will be jonezing :(

There's always Hooters across the street if it gets too bad.

We should just go to Hooters. Pitchers of beer and a smoking section. And we can be as raunchy as we want. You know me. ;)

Just let me know quick if the majority wants to change the loc. We could also just meet up at Macaroni Grill and let our P's take it from there.

How about we meet at Mac Grill and take it from there?

Sounds good to me.

Final roll call... Me, raincrow007, Ponderous, cryokinetic, Nighthawk and his wife, Meshou and her bf, Eyebyte and Atilla.

Ooo - I have those on my other PC! Let me sort through them for some of the good ones and get back to you a little later today.

I think there should be more discussion about our collective beer drinking prowess.

But I'm getting ahead of myself here. Soon, soon, the others will come crawling back into this thread...

The beer consumption was impressive. I'm still moving fairly slow today.

[Ponderous]

Pleasure to meet you all. And thanks for the education. I learned a lot last night…

1. When you tell the hostess that you’re with the Nighthawk party, you either get a knowing wink or a blank stare depending on the hostess.
2. The Macaroni Grill has some really cool colored glass on a high shelf for decoration. According to the waiter, these are yours for the taking provided you can pull off a stealthy ninja move, scaling the bookcase and slipping out unnoticed.
3. The manager of the Macaroni Grill gets irritable when asked to pour beverages.
4. It takes more than what we imbibed at the Grill (See # 3) to create a successful distraction. Without a distraction, Raincrow did not get a chance to accomplish # 2.
5. Someone on the board could be Meshou’s twin, but I’m not saying who. And they are from the same part of the country. Coincidence? I think not.
6. Hooters has a passport. But they will let you in without one.
7. Shiner Bock is pronounced Shiner Beck if you’re from Boston. Criminal. Truly.
8. Fosters does not taste like Shiner no matter what the waitress says.
9. Everything stops in the bar for a fight; this I already knew. What I learned last night was this phenomenon happens even if the fight is in the parking lot.
10. I’m old enough to be somebody’s mother. This is a fact I will promptly forget.

Thanks to Cryo for suggesting the meet and to Nighthawk for getting us organized!

Dammit! If only someone had started playing frisbee with the crockery like I suggested those spiffy bottles could have been all yours Ponderous!



And you were most gracious -- even moreso for not mentioning the party's extensive forays into the nuances of sexual slang in your post...




whoops.

[earwax]

I've obviously lived a sheltered life.

I'll never hear Spoonfed Tribe's song "Dirty Sanchez" the same way again.

[attila_the_hunny]

10. I?m old enough to be somebody?s mother. This is a fact I will promptly forget.


Yeah, but my mother isn't really old enough to be my mother. If that makes you feel any better. :)

[Nighthawk]

It was definitely a good time. I slept in until noon today. Started out at Macaroni Grill and ended up at Hooters across the highway. Started out a bit quiet, as introverts will be, but quickly ramped up with the alcohol consumption. Everybody was most charming and interesting ... and kind enough not to make fun of my Tourettes ;) I think we wrapped things up around 1am or so?

The bar fight in the Hooters parking lot was pretty cool. My SJ wife disappeared for about 20 mintues after the fight, only to find out she was tending to the wounds of the guy who came out on the losing end. She's a nurse practitioner.

I cannot believe everybody forgot to bring their cameras ;)

We should do it again sometime soon.

[raincrow007]

Now what sort of photographer would I be if I couldn't catch elusive prey without being noticed, hmmm?

I take plastic, too.

My truck is still in Valley Ranch. Have to drive out there to pick it up later today.

Good to know that we didn't really lose Meshou.

[attila_the_hunny]

I enjoyed it, but mostly when we made our journey to Hooters.
I was actually so tired. I've never been around so many NTs, and it just drained me. I would have passed out in the car if I didn't think the inebriated eyebyte could drive all the way home between the lines.

[eyebyte_atWork]

Geez

It was very good to meet with everybody - a real blast. It was a very pleasant way to spend a Friday night and almost made up for being sick for the rest of the weekend (still recovering).

It was a good surprise to see Meshou stop by as I did not even know she was aware of the meet. Very un-expected.

I only regret that Akira was not able to meetup with the rest of us as I know he would have had fun and they would appreciate his humor.

Raincrow - I hope you are only kidding about pictures... I really do.

Of course I took pictures.

Damn, I didn't know about this meetup till a few hours ago. I was even in Dallas.

Maybe next time.

[Johnny]

Shiner Bock is pronounced Shiner Beck if you?re from Boston. Criminal. Truly.

It doesn't matter as long as it sells up there (now, which is weird if you're old enough to still think of Shiner as a local brew).

Hmmm, when I'm up Boston way I don't tend to find it. But I do get offered 50 different kinds of Sam Adams.

The last time I ordered beer in Boston, I asked for a red draw. Of course I didn't ask for it by name (not expecting it to be recognized), but I ordered the beer and a tomato juice. The bartender told me, "I don't have any tomato juice and I wouldn't give it to if I had any."

But upon reviewing the images, it seems that you and eyebyte are safe -- only parts of you two made it into the frame, since you were sitting right beside me.

It's been a few years since I've been there and can't exactly remember if I saw Shiner there either...but I have seen it stocked around the east coast.

I do miss the Sam Adams stout that was good beer.

O.K. how about Schlotzky's then LOL
