Yeh, it was nice meeting you too. I had a good time.

But no more drinking on Monday nights.

Ouch.

SpencerH · December 2, 2003, 10:15

I always thought that bourbon was made from corn mash.

Jon Miller · December 2, 2003, 12:30

Adam Smith - yes - I'd like to have lunch, but can't access my PM's right now - Thursday is no good but Friday might be okay if you can get to the area of 1800 G street? You know the federal building there? Saturday is best for me though.

Is Krazyhorse or TCO around? Maybe we could do a Polymeet this Saturday? I promise to ignore you GP

Evening are good for me too.

Having a ball here in DC

Jon Miller · December 3, 2003, 18:23

hey, any evening is good for me

Jon Miller

Adam Smith · December 3, 2003, 21:24

AH:

Saturday is a maybe for me right now, but friday I can manage.
18th and G st should be the White House Conference Center or Old Exucutive Office Building?
Only possible hitch is if it snows, school closes, and I have to watch the kids. (snow chaos - a DC institution

)

If you cant get to PM's how do we do contact? Does DanS have contact info?

Hey, I can almost understand that, using the first/last letter method.

So what's up for Saturday?

Alexander's Horse · December 4, 2003, 15:18

Thanks for replying guys - I'll have to get back to you - a bit busy right now (Thursday afternoon) and my movements are fluid (no pun intended).

I've been told to order child or entree size meals because of the enormous helpings you get over there.

Interestingly enough, if you want to see some large portions you should check out The Outback. Great steakhouse with an Aussie theme. See if there is anything actually Australlian in the place besides the boomerangs and kangaroo wall decorations.

So, not that anyone cares about ol' Ozzy, but is there a meet going on?

Straybow · December 4, 2003, 19:20

Yeah, AH wants to go to the cheapo quasi-Aussie restaurant on his trip to America…

AH needs to go to Olive Garden.

He can eat until he busts his gut.

Alexander's Horse · December 4, 2003, 19:21

I went to the tabbard inn night before last, Chief something the night before.

Straybow · December 4, 2003, 19:26

Never heard of Tabbard Inn. "Chief" something, or "Chef" something?

Timexwatch · December 4, 2003, 22:20

Bombay Palace, a semi-s_****y Indian place on K Street has a good buffet for $12 on weekends. My roomates and I usually hit it up for brunch on Sundays, thus removing the need to eat for the next day and a half....

Jon Miller · December 4, 2003, 22:36

there is a good indian buffet lunch out here in college park

only 10 dollars

did it wednesday

Jon Miller

Timexwatch · December 4, 2003, 22:42

To all the D.C. Polytoners:

Prepare for Armegeddon on the roads tomorrow. 8 inches tomorrow

Jon Miller · December 4, 2003, 22:50

wow, that is really cool

lucky I don't drive

maybe I won't wear sandals for the first time since last winter

Jon Miller
(I wore shoes a few times, but those were always times I planned n playing basketball)

OzzyKP · December 4, 2003, 23:17

8 inches. Joy.

They are really gonna need me at work, as a Michigander I bet I'm the only one who is qualified to drive in it all. DC is gonna shut down, bunch a whimps here.

I'm ready though. My car is all decked out for the holidays, my tree is up, and Christmas lights are up (on the house, car and tree). Bring on the snow!

Alexander's Horse · December 5, 2003, 09:27

why are they closing the schools? Bunch of wimps.

Timexwatch · December 5, 2003, 10:19

Wow, what a washout. Maybe we'll get the good stuff tonight

Welcome to Washington AH.

I had to work from home today, so I will not be able to make it to lunch.

DanS · December 5, 2003, 11:35

Tabard Inn's supposed to be good, although every time I've gone, they've been super busy and the wait was too long for us.

Don't know what Chief... is. Doesn't ring a bell.

If you're looking to bust up your expense account with dinner, I have suggestions of where you can do a lot of damage.

DanS · December 5, 2003, 11:39

This is really a Southern town, with Southern attitudes about snow and ice. Normally, we don't get much snow. Maybe one big snowfall every three or four years.

Jon Miller · December 5, 2003, 12:05

any meeting planned for tonight?

It's right across the road from Tabbard's, in a courtyard.

The Tabbard's meal was superb. Very memorable.
