Wow, those admins are a real exciting bunch. Anyone change their mind about meeting us, yet? Heh.
A, whatever you pick to hide behind on Friday, make sure it's tall enough to hide me as well.-jay

Doesn't look like the place itself has wireless, but there may be a signal in the area that you could pick up. There are several places in Arlington that have free wi-fi, but I don't know how close they are to Clarendon Grill, or how much signal spillover there is.

Meeting between 7 and 7:30. It's possible, but I wouldn't set a clock by it. 
I think Recluce would know better, having been there before...

Thanks for the warning...er, reminder, about bringing a camera. 
I'm going to come home and pick up the car tomorrow night before heading over, so I'll attempt to remember to bring my camera as well.
My kids just offered to leave me a note to remind me. I'll bring the note along -- I'm sure it will be highly amusing (and definitely insulting -- to me). BTW, Oldest Daughter is 3/4 through LFB. Tonight, she said to me: "Can I just kill Covenant?!?"

you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Hey! Just about to jump in rental and bomb on down to DC. Traveled from 6am to 4pm with a very boring 3 hour layover at Denver--read alot of good Sci-Fi short stories though. Took 2 hours to get to Hastings as we got stuck in traffic jam. We had the misfortune of going past Shea Stadium as the Mets game got out.
Watched my niece, Lydia, play in an allstar softball game, then had gobs of Italian food with my sis, bro-in-law, Lydia and two nephews. Wiped out this morning and contusions still hurting a bit but nothing will stop me! See you soon!
