Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Boy, we sound like stuffy old curmudgeons!

The truth probably wouldn't fly so well with those guys, though.

It's not that it's not the truth, it just leaves out the corsets and the frenet and the Too Much Candy.

It's probably for the best.

What Sean said. Heh.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Vortex, it sounds like a good formal description of who we are. But "politics" shouldn't be the first items listed. Of the 4 things you mentioned, "politics" is probably the least important to the board. We have a number of threads specifically devoted to various aspects of popular culture, additional threads devoted specifically to writing and literature, but none specifically for politics.

oh, i thought we did. My bad.

eta: and I realize that the description is rather formal. But, when you're trying to do business, you get a better response if you sound business-like.

Definitely not knocking you, Vortex! You did good.

I also agree that I don't really think of politics as a major topic of discussion, certainly not one to be listed first in a list.

What is even happening?

Vortex, it's excellent Boston-ese.

The status is NOT quo.

Vortex is so sexy with her mad lawyer skillz.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

So - next weekend, Saturday, dinner? We have Helmand's on the table, but I will also humbly suggest my boyfriend's new place. Which doesn't yet have a name, but it's where La Felce used to be on Stockton & Union, and it's Northern Italian food served "tapas-style". It's good (but it doesn't have the yummy pumpkin dish).

Also, we could try for an earlier dinner at 6ish or so, if that makes it easier for people....
