Two weeks notice for a MOB party during the height of summer (allegedly)? I would expect a light turnout.

Unless you’re bringing in those Brooks Brothers wearing outside agitators.

Gonna be in Kansas City that weekend – will see if I can find a vendor at Kaufmann Stadium that sells Smithwick’s, though.

Taking an idea from Barbie Boxer: Guys to wear lime, gals wear pink.

Did Terry get his patio problems resolved?
August 7th, 2009 at 9:30 am
More on the patio problems later today.

Chad,
I learned a long time ago; you can never make everyone happy.

MOB does facebook?
August 7th, 2009 at 10:43 am
The Mayor will be there and will be signing autographs.
August 7th, 2009 at 10:45 am
Of course not. But there’s a broad spectrum between making everyone happy and making no one happy and you can make decisions to influence where you end up on it.
In this, case, you can increase your chances of making more people happy by providing more notice. The specific date isn’t the issue, rather its proximity to today. Usually the closer in you are to a date, the less flexibility you have. Just sayin’.

OK – I’m wondering if September 12 might work better. After the fair, a month away.
Speak now or…
August 7th, 2009 at 11:21 am
I like September 12 much better.
August 7th, 2009 at 11:43 am
Sept is fine. But if a guy can’t have a cigar while mocking moonbats with his fellows, I’ll have to decline.
What about Mayslacks?
August 7th, 2009 at 11:50 am
As to the cigar issue – I have a post slated to run in about ten minutes that shouild give you a pretty clear call to action on that front. With a little luck, and a little particpation from everyone, maybe we can have the patio back by then…
I’m thinking about moving the date, at any rate.

I try to limit the weekends I stay home inside the 694 loop to under 10 per year.
Hay Days is on the 12th… but Grouse hunting opens on the 12th…

It was announced on July 27. http://www.shotinthedark.info/wp/?p=5137
And I think it was on TN as well. Only the place was TBD. We had a thread on it at Anti-Strib.
There are some tables out front at Keegans for cigar smokers. If there is some kind of gathering at Keegans on the 22nd, we will be there.
August 7th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
The 22nd or the 12th, we’d likely be there in force.
August 7th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
Either way The Mayor will be there and will be signing autographs.
August 8th, 2009 at 8:49 am
I will try to be there, not sure if my folks are in town or not. I’m still sad that I missed the last one!
I want to see if y’all have “faces made for blogging”, to paraphrase Tom and Ray Magliozzi. 🙂
August 8th, 2009 at 2:45 pm
I’ve already taken the weekend of the 22nd off of work. But, if it ends up being the 12th, I’ll figure out a way to get there.
And Johnny Roosh: I’ll take an autograph
August 8th, 2009 at 5:42 pm
If it’s the 22nd, I’ll be there. Not Sept. 12th, I’m camping with the girls.
August 9th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
you guys have a facebook?!? Run for the hills!
