I'm smack dab in the middle of Cali... 60 miles north of Fresno. Where are you? I'd wouldn't mind swilling a few pints and waxing philosophic on progs finer moments.

On the other hand, anyone coming to Vegas is welcome to drop me a line.

Maybe next year James

That is pretty wierd, Danbo, about the tickets.  Part of the reason why is we asked for the same seats we had for The Musical Box show in December and I actually think we would have been in the first or second row if we hadn't. This is going to be a great show.

Hey, but people like K-9 and Wallace who log on with multiple idenities if your ever out in public you must wear a name tag telling us who they are at that moment.  

I defintely plan on checkin' out Vegas... My wife wants to take me to a titty show there, for some reason.  I get plenty at home. Maybe James and I'll pound a few pints and rate the ta-ta shows.

 

K-9 and Wallace never flamed me, but I'd take a donations to have a come-to-jesus meeting with 'em. Grrrrr, hahahahahhaha Boo

No, she's as Polish as I am, but she learns your language avidly (and I knew her nick would cause a Fin to react - what does 'pikkumyy' mean, BTW?)


I can't transtlate it correctly.

'pikku' = little or tiny

Pikkumyy is a character in Finnish TV cartoon Muumi or Moomin (english). Eh, are you aware of Muumi? I believe that is where 'pikkumyy' originates.

Oh, so that's it? Yes, I watched the series, but it was a long time ago and I don't remember the character. Thanks

I have yet to hear anybody else mention that they are from the cultural wasteland (apart from the big cities) that is the upper midwestern U.S., so my chances are slim.

Wow, how did you know?

Oh yeah, I did post a pic in that picture thread a while back. Plus I'm a midwestern American, so chances are, I'm not at my ideal weight.

Well, then you must be pretty close to Sacramento, which is where I live. How about yourself? As for meeting to swill pints, sounds good, I love to wax philosophical, one of my favorite pastimes.

Never met another progarchive member but might have smelt a few at times...

...maybe Velvetclown on a recent visit to North Wales.

I get up to Sac a couple of times a year. Usually on business. I'll let you know when I'm heading that way and we'll have a couple of pints.

Ever been to Makuni's in Folsom. Best sushi around...

The brewery outside Old Town has a good stout.  

 

Cyggy can join in, but he'll have to stick with soda.

Sounds like a good plan.

I think the place you're talking about is the River City Brewing Company.

There's another new excellent brew pub in town--Pyramid Brew Pub has opened in downtown Sac which is a good place to hang out and taste different beers.

So, yeah, let me know when you're in town and we'll make a plan.

Pyramid's not bad. I like their wheat and pale, but the India Pale is .

I'll let you know when I'm heading north.

 

You shoulda bought tix to Cal-Prog. It would have been worth the trip.
