Pre-End-of-the-World Gathering?

[El Dingo]

Who would be up for a Thursday, 12/20/12 gathering at my place in Oakland?

Just a Pizza, Movie (everyone bring one, we draw out of a DVD size hat) and reminiscing about when we used to be relevant.

EDIT: OK - Let's all pencil this in. I will assume anyone who doesn't flat-out say "No way in hell" is planning on coming.

If you don't make it, fine. It's not the end of the world...or is it?

DOOM: Pre-End-of-the-World Gathering 2012
Date: Thursday, December 20
Time: 6PM - I will order pizza, submit your topping requests.
Where: Maggimoto Castle
745 Aileen St.
Oakland, CA 94609
PH: 510-601-1795

I'll give a tentative nod to this. Need to go back to Indiana to visit my mom and relatives sometime in the next couple months, but I suspect I'll be avoiding the Xmas time-frame. This will also hinge on Lady Cranefly's okay.

[Drunk Monk]

That's a sure horseman of the apocalypse, a clear omen of the End-of-the-World. Forget those pointy-headed Mayans. Time to stockpile the nacho cheese.

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

I'll do my usual "Yes, absolutely!" and back out later.

However, I am in Berkeley every Thursday evening now, so I may actually make it....

Feel free to drop by the new West Berkeley Fencing Club at 1111 Addison (the old Freight & Salvage).

[Drunk Monk]

G-man says he's coming in w/tQ Friday and leaving Monday that weekend.

CF, did your schedule settle?

[cranefly]

Yes, I believe things have settled -- though Lady Cranefly has a dad and I have a mom who are both having very serious medical issues right now. So things could change pretty quickly.
I'm hoping to set my Indiana trip in January (the airline prices are getting ridiculous, but what can you do?).

Count me in unless I say otherwise.

[The Queen]

And hey, the end of the world is scheduled for the same day as our 15th anniversary. Hmmmmmm.....

[Drunk Monk]

And if PPFY does show up, why that's two of the four horsemen, right there!

So who else is in at this point? ED (obviously), CF, DM and the usual PPFY non-commitment. tg? Maybe Greg & tQ can come up early? BTW, tQ, you can totally come to this. If Scapino can bring a date to my ED-hosted bachelor party, having you at a DOOM gathering is totally acceptable.

Is there anyone else still alive in DOOM?

BTW, I don't have any exceptional DVDs locked and loaded that have subs. :oops:

[The Queen]

I'll leave it to the Greg, but just FYI, we will be bringing Mayhem and Chaos with us on this trip.

[El Dingo]

Well - If nothing else we can stick with the End of the World theme. I have Zardoz and The Omega Man.

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

Not going to make it. I can only spend so much time at the Klimpton.

[Drunk Monk]

So it's ED, CF, DM and the usual PPFY accept&bail?

[Drunk Monk]

It it going to be just me and ED, pizza, booze and cheeseballs?

CF, are you still in and if so, do you want to swing by my place? We could go up together. It'll save you a little commuting...

[cranefly]

Oh, hell. I was thinking it was Friday night. So it's Thursday night.
Let me check my busy calendar yes I can squeeze it in.
Meeting up with you for a carpool sounds good to me.
Is this your workplace or your house? If it's your house, I might need a reminder of the address.

[Drunk Monk]

You'd think it would be a Monday, right?

It would be my place. I'll message you with the coordinates. I plan to be home by 5:30, which will probably make us a little late as ED is calling this meeting at 6PM, but has he seen the traffic in the East Bay?
