LDS.net get-together

[Wingnut]

Yep, it's time for another one of those! I'll be in SLC this weekend, though not for conference. My husband and I will be visiting for a funeral in the family for a few days, and I thought I'd throw together a little night out. Because of travel schedules and family commitments, Tuesday night (October 5) will work best for us.

Who's in?

[pam]

Sorry I can't make it.

j/k j/k j/k

I'm in.

[Roseslipper]

sorry about the passing away of your family memeber, some times this can be hard even thou you know their going to a better place.

Who wants to pay for my plane ticket?

[Wingnut]

Thanks Rose. It's been a long battle lasting many years, and frankly, we're just all glad it's over. We're excited to have all the family get together.

Who wants to pay for my plane ticket?

No one.

[Wingnut]

I have seriously overestimated my popularity here.

*sniff*

[Wingnut]

Yes, I laughed at my own post there.

[Dravin]

My car died. I'm debating with myself if I want to try to borrow a car for the occasion or not.

Done and done. Just go to the Delta ticket counter and check in . If your name is not on the passenger list drop my name, tell them it was paid for by John Doe and I have an open credit line with to fly anyone anywhere in the world. Insist on first class seats only and don't settle for less than steak for the meal. Sometimes they act cranky about doing this, but if you make a big scene and ask very loudly and obnoxiously to be treated as a VIP, they will have people disguised as airport security come and escort you to their special lounge where you can wait for a car to take you directly to the plane, bypassing the gate check-in procedures. Or, if the wrong crew shows up they will be real security taking you to jail, but either way you will end up with a memorable adventure you can tell your grandchildren about in 10-20 years.

/me chants: "Do it! Do it! Do it!"

[Wingnut]

Actually, maybe I should throw this in there. I'll probably have my sister watch my daughter for the evening, so that we don't have to worry about her at a restaurant. She lives in Draper, so somewhere in that area would be good for us, just so that we're not driving there, then all the way back out somewhere closer to where we already were, you know?

[Dravin]

Should be plenty of places in the Draper/Sandy/South SLC area to eat, the usual chain suspects are there. I'm not overly familiar with the non-chains in that area though.

[Dr T]

I hope you all enjoy your time in SLC. :)

[PrinceofLight2000]

No one.

NOBODY LOVES ME T_T

What about Goodwood in Draper?

[MarginOfError]

I'll be in the area visiting my best friend and her new boy toy (er, boyfriend). I think I might be able to make it.

[pam]

MOE let me know for sure if you are attending. I might have to reconsider my decision to attend. :)

And miss out on the chance to discuss statistics?!?

[beefche]

All you men should be aware, that pam has a thing for younger men who wear black pants and white button down shirts. If you happen to be wearing an apron and carry a little notebook with pencil, she will go wild for you.

[pam]

And miss out on the chance to discuss statistics?!?

We'll just discuss pie. I know MOE loves to discuss pie as all good statisticians do.

[Wingnut]

What about Goodwood in Draper?

Never heard of it. What kind of food?

[pam]

Steak, bbq etc.

[MarginOfError]

You're so close, Pam, but it's spelled pi! And yes, all good statisticians do love a good discussion about pi.

[pam]

I like my version better. And I was referring to a pie chart that I know you love.
