My flight's booked for 9:30
Wednesday night?
It now looks like I'll be working until 8.30pm so probably won't make it. Have fun!

Call Olbermann, we got us THE WORST PERSON ON METAFILTER
Oh dear. so, what were you hoping to achieve here, Wendell? Brian B & Dee X are both articulate and capable of showing us their true colours all by themselves and those of us who wish to make judgments can do so based on their contributions without needing to be called to arms like this.
Eideteker is looking really sexy to me right now, though. PHWOAR.

You don't go around accusing people who like Marmite of being low.
Hell, yes. And those repugnant Promite likers.
Vegemite elitist, and proud of it!

Sans quoi?
On the other hand, if we're going to go forth with your idea, we could be "mathowie's angels". Which could be fun, depending on the outfits.
I see lots of leather.
And the GADGETS! Must have high-tech shiny, sexy gadgets.

If MeFi is a city, what building have I just wandered into?
Why, the lunatic asylum of course. The trick is being able to pick the patients from the staff.

I find the thought of attending a meet-up to verify one's existence to be too creepy and intimidating for words. Even if someone did turn up for such a purpose, would you simply take their word that whatever they say is true or would you require further verification? Birth certificate, driver's license, school reports, references, medical certificate?
I'll take ThePinkSuperhero's word for it when she says everyone is crazy.... [more]

Yeah, but I've been missing milestones all day (mefi post 70000 and usernumber 70000!), so I want to be really really ready for this one.
I just can't help but wonder if there's not a brand new account being born out of the ashes of U.N. Owen and Innocent Bystander, growing and festering and waiting...waiting for it's chance to insinuate itself amongst us once more.

Impromptu meetup in Melbourne?
I'll be around on the weekend and would love to catch up sometime. Thursday I don't finish work til 8.30pm, and I'll be working most of Saturday, but I think I'll be free after 3.30 - 4pmish. I'd love to meet Jacalata if everyone else wants to wait til she can make it?

Also, anyone up to date with what's available on Good Friday? While most shops will be closed, I assume places like Carlton, Fitzroy, St Kilda, Southgate, Prahran, etc will be pretty much business as usual.

We could have 2! One with liquorice on Thursday evening & one with Jacalata on Saturday afternoon!
I'm inner south eastern suburbs.

Kattullus, how long are you in town for?

at 3:03 PM on March 18, 2008
You're very naughty Kattullus.
Oh well, shall the rest of us try to keep the ball rolling and try to meet up next Thursday evening? I think I may even be finished work at 7.30pm if anyone is interested?
Jacalata? Liquorice? Sleep-walker? Anyone else?
My office is in the Toorak/Armadale area, so anywhere around there, Chapel St or Camberwell junction would be great for me. We can sit around discussing what a cad Kattullus is.... [more]

Is anyone willing to aim for early next week then?
When are you free jacalata?

I think the deal is that places with less than 20 employees working AT A TIME can open if they wish, also certain establishments are exempt, including restaurants and cafes (hence my assumption that areas like lygon st, chapel st, fitzroy st, and the like would have places to go). Of course, many of them choose NOT to open, due to fewer customers around, staff wanting the day off, etc
oh, here we go: what Business Victoria has to say.
I'm going... [more]

pompomtom, Friday is pretty much scuppered at this point anyways. Looks like Kattullus can only do tonight, and we have a small window of Tues afternoon - Thursday morning if we want to get liquorice & jacalata in the same place. I think. I dunno. This is hard.

We seem to be a hard bunch to get together, however Kattullus & I managed to find each other last Wednesday and we went for a wander along Southbank & had a drink at the Blue Train.
HAH! I've just post-added it to the calendar to link to the pics to prove that it happened. I hope that's OK, even though it's totally backwards.
I'd still like to meet Jacalata while she is in town, so are any of us free this coming Tuesday or Wednesday?

damn, not to toot my own horn, but i can't do thursday night - my show opens at 5pm
Oh?

Show sounds interesting (support your fellow mefites!) However Jacalata will be gone by then.
Come on Melbourne let's make something happen!
Oh, just for the record, after work on Good Friday I took a minor detour and I'd say 2/3rds of the restaurants/bistros/cafes/take-ways around Glenferrie Road in Malvern & Armadale were open, as were 3 of the 4 bottle shops & both of the pubs I drove past. This was at about 1pm, so Good... [more]

yes!
I've just looked in my diary and I finish work in Armadale at 6.30pm, but I might be able to reshedule that appt to earlier in the day.

so where are we going? anyone have a fave place to go for food & beverages? I'm a bit of a home body these days and no longer up to date with the cool places to go. CBD, chapel st, richmond, camberwell...pretty much anywhere else inner suburban is good with me.

Super, Crofts look intriguing!
I've just accepted another appt, so will be finished work at 7.30, so I ought to arrive around 8ish. Will we be able to locate each other easily? I'm wearing red framed glasses & a sparkly purple cardigan.

MeTa post:
Learning to resist the dismiss
Jokes are jokes, but some comments are too tedious and unfunny, such as using an attempt at a one liner to categorise an entire nation, whether it be about criminal Australians, whale harpooning Japanese, drunken Irish, frog marching Germans, homosexual Greeks, lazy Mexicans, surrendering French, obnoxious loud mouthed Americans or whinging Poms. There is no value in such comments, other than indicating that the poster has nothing of value to add.

MeFi Mall...who's with me?
I sell gift vouchers for massage at my clinic in Melbourne, Australia. Recipients will have to travel to me, however I'm open to negotiation if anyone wants to pay for me to travel to exotic locations.

I read the thread in question when MadamM's post was still there, and I had no idea what she meant. I'm feeling rather vague now.
Telf, I can't see your email in your profile, but I'd be happy to chat about my take on the movie with you.
