VFTP Blog Dinner Update, Fin

"A Dinner With Tam" is roaring up on us at the end of the week. Cinco de Mayo - drunk college kids slamming back tequila and $7 Coronas. Yay. The movers and shakers of the gun blogosphere (and some weirdo shaved head biker gun nut) will be gathering for dinner, though, to meet the proprietor of View from the Porch while she's in the Granite State.

Original post here, first update here, second update here.

Where: Jillian's, Manchester NH. It seemed like the majority of folks agreed that being able to play pool and have free wi-fi was the way to go.

When
: Saturday, May 5th, 2012, 7:00 PM* 6:30PM

*Management tells me that we stand a better chance of actually eating sometime that evening if we get there before 7, as they have a large group coming in at 7... I will be there by 6:15PM to secure our table.

What: Dinner with the Mistress of Snark for Northeast area bloggers, commenters, lurkers, and readers.

Why: Connect with friends, meet the author of View from the Porch, plan the summer blogshoot, and basically have a good meal with some great company.

Attendees:
JD
libertyman
Andrew
Zeeke42
Doubletrouble and Mrs. Doubletrouble
NH State Representative Bruce
MedicMatthew
Christina
KC
Ross
Bandit
TJIC & Jenny
Joe R.

We've also had a request from Bandit for a pre-dinner blogshoot. There's The Firing Line (oh, the irony!) in Manchester a relatively short distance from Jillian's for those who are interested in a little shooty goodness before dinner; I won't be able to make it but if folks want to get together there first that'd be fun.

Looking forward to meeting everyone for dinner!

That is all.

Wish I was going to be home! Everyone stop using oil NOW so I can tie up for a few days and say hi.

Don't forget that SCI-FI and Mrs. SCI-FI will be there, too!

Jay G said...

Well, seeing as how neither of them responded to any of my posts... *sniff* *sniff*...

KC said...

I'm thinking about bring the Mrs. I think she needs to know just how weird…wonderful my internet friends are.

Is Jillian's open-carry friendly? I don't want to make myself unwelcome.

I am hoping to go to The Firing Line before dinner. Anybody else planning on going?
