whelp, looks like I'll have a bike. So no go...we don't have plans for the late evening though (going to Sonotheque on Saturday for Karsh Kale), so if anybody knows of any good house parties or small club parties going on, let me know.

As of right now, I won't be able to meet up with you guys. Sorries. Just schedule a meet during the Chicago Auto Show, I'll be here for 10 days, surely one will work out 😉

I don't understand, what does having a bike have to do with it? If you're in Logan Square just take the Blue Line (like I am from Wicker Park after work). I'm leaving my car here at work and I'll pick it up for the ride home.

back a few pages re: his post about critical mass.

EDIT: btw, I suggest you not trying to walk from the blue line on chicago ave. it's depressingly far from water tower area. you can take the bus in from there, most likely.....the 66, I believe.

Go back a few pages to K1052's advice about switching to the Red Line 😉

Can anyone bring a camera? I've forgotten mine at home and I can't go home at lunch as I have to meet someone in Wicker Park to buy a motherboard. If you can't bring one, please say so hear and I'll go home after work and get it. I'll be late, but that's not bad as I can leave the car at home.

the little lady has hers on her person. problem solved.

Platypus is always talking about bears but I don't think he means the ones that live in the woods...

Moose Drool is much better 😉

sure, it's not Canadian...but it is the superior of the varietal moose-themed beers

The Drake Hotel in Chicago? Make sure you don't take a Bible out of the room. Ethan Hunt will figure out that you are the mastermind behind the plot to steal the NOC list.

 

[Kyteland]

I'd show up to one of these, but this time my excuse is [shakes magic eight ball] I just missed two days of work with the flu and I'm still sick.

 

[Jules]

Id love to go but i have jujitsu today 🙁

 

[keeleysam]

Wish I'd seen this thread yesterday, I can't make it now.

 

[EvilYoda]

about an hour left for you guys, hope you have fun...absolutely great weather today. We walked around Lincoln Park after not being able to catch a movie...went to a record store and I picked up some vinyl...now we're just relaxing in Logan Square before we head to pick up a bike for moi.

Maybe next time, fellas.

 

[Random Variable]

I guess I missed it.

 

[Steve]

It was fun! Pics eventually (I wasn't the one with the camera) 🙂

 

[chuckywang]

I made it back alright!

Excellent. Thank goodness CTA put up signs in that train car. It's like they did something right for once.

I'll let Platypus make that judgment call.

 

[skyking]

Man, I got this close to attending! We flew north of there Wednesday night and stayed in Sheboygan🙂 I'm glad we did not stick around though, the weather out west turned to crap and I'm glad to be home.

 

[zinfamous]

oh crap...i just remembered. I'll try and get pics up later tonight. I think I have access to one of those taken

 

[Chiboy]

I was in downtown that day, if I knew than I would have stopped by. Hope you guys had fun.

 

[zinfamous]

Allrighty, here they are. Sorry for the delay, but better late then never, eh?

In no particular order (well, how about CW from upper left?) chuckywang, K1052, Steve, Platypus (yeah, he's toasted), Mrs vi_edit, vi_edit (objects in mirror are toastier than they appear), zinfamous, lady zinfamous

K1052 holds forth while Steve (affable Canadian that he is) politely feigns interest. Platypus makes no attempt to mask the true object of his affections.

The gloves are off now. Flames removed to protect the innocent

Zin: "I wish I was as drunk as Plat" Lady Zin: "What am I doing here with these fools?"

Edit: Yes, that is the Yankees losing to Cleveland in the background.

would have more pics, but our batteries went kaput 🙁

 

[djheater]

Oh dear, oh dear...

I saw the thread but us both being in school, we could not come this time....
That's two I've missed I wanted to attend.

🙁

Mrs. djheater and I (well really me, I'll have to fool her somehow) will make an effort to come next get-together...

 

[chuckywang]

Man, I wish I shaved....
