Since the last thread lost steam sometime last week, I figure it is time to finalize this, and provide the concrete details to the masses in one convenient, easy-to-swallow OP.
What: Bowling!! Drinking!! Socializing!!
When: 7:30PM on Friday, 11/21
Where: Hillcrest Bowling Alley (click for directions)
Why: Why the hell not? Bowling is a great way to unwind after a long week, and this gives many of us a chance to meet
Bring anybody you'd like, sine I reserved us a pair of lanes which will comfortably allow for 10 people or so, and we can definitely add more if needed. The beer selection can be hit and miss, but it's a bowling alley so that's to be expected. They do, on occasion at least, have Mac and Jack on tap, as well as the many usual suspects. Anyhow, this is a great spot for everybody to pop in and provide a realistic head count, as well as ask any questions that may arise as we go along. Hope to see a bunch of you there!
List of people attending:
--
Myself
Sec 108 + wife
Royalcurve
Thingray + wife
James F'n X
Red + wife
dpseadv
"Maybes"
--
Kevin_ess

All of you maybes feel free to convert into definites. See you there!

Too young to drink and my bowling skills are atrocious.
If I score a 90 it’s cause for celebration.

I average about 110
This is more about hanging out and having fun. Come join us.

I'll be there.
Having worked in the area late nights before, it’s not the greatest, so you may want to take a little extra care with goodies in your car if you drive. Should still be fun, though. I haven’t bowled up at Hillcrest before.
Warning: I’m terrible.

Where in the area have you worked?
I’ve lived in the area my whole life, and been at the bowling alley many a late night without any real issues.

I worked at the Circle K on Sunset for a bit.
Maybe the creeps just went there instead of Hillcrest.

Can I just say one more time how angry I am that I decided to get more involved here AFTER I moved back home from Seattle.

Fly on down for bowling. It's just for the night
Should be a simple trip, right?

You bet your bippy I'll be there
and I will be bringing my lady as well.

I'm trying to talk my better half into it, we'll have to see.
It’s pretty far south for us, but it sounds like fun!
Man do I love midgets.

Love to have you both there
Expand your borders a bit, if you can

Much of it has to do with how it goes getting over this virus.
I’m still pretty far from 100%, although I’m back at work.
Man do I love midgets.

I'm a month removed from catching that crap
And I’m still coughing stuff up and having to clear my throat. Good luck with it

Ugh.. I'm about two or three weeks in.
Sounds like I have some time to go before I’m done.
Man do I love midgets.

I might be able to make it
This is a busy time of the school year. If I feel on Friday like the evening can be spared in favor of fun over grading, I’ll be there.

Looks like I'll be there, anybody wants a ride from the Shoreline area email me.
by dpseadv on Nov 19, 2008 2:47 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
Dang,
If I go I’ll be heading there from Shoreline, but afterwards I need to head home towards Everett. Doesn’t sound like carpooling would work.
Man do I love midgets.

If you decide to drink enough to kill that cold, Everett isn't so far for me.
I think it’s only 15 minutes or so from where I’m at with lite traffic. Up to you.

Odds are looking better that I will attend,
although I’m up again at 12:30 with a coughing attack. I’ll probably have to leave from Everett though, since Jeanuts is working from home that day.

If I don't attend, royalcurve will kill me. I doubt my adorable family can make it, but we'll see.
Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.

You are no good to us dead.
And RC is no good to us in prison.
by Sec 108 on Nov 20, 2008 8:17 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
So then he should definitely come
We don’t need to deal with the consequences

No kidding long pork gives me gas.
I only say that because RC doesn’t seem the type to let anything go to waste, plus it disposes the evidence.

Quick questions:
How’d you get lanes on a Friday night (you can never get a lane on a Friday up north)?
How long do you have the lanes for?

by Thingray on Nov 20, 2008 12:43 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
I know some people (I've been attached to this place for 20 years)
Besides, I reserved far enough in advance. We can bowl for 2 hours, because at 9:30 they start to clear out for the rock n bowl thing

I see.
Even with my connections I can’t get a Friday night lane where I bowl, unless I want to wait until after 9:30.
Man do I love midgets.
by Thingray on Nov 20, 2008 1:05 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
I take that back.
If I wanted a single lane to get some practice in or try out some new gear, they’d hook me up. But I couldntt get multiple lanes reserved.
Man do I love midgets.

Woohoo!
I got married! Wait, how did I miss this? Jeanuts is going to be PISSED!

Didn't this already happen?
The realization just sinking in, or did you just remember to update your facebook account?
by dpseadv on Nov 20, 2008 1:45 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Our wedding isn't until May 9th as far as I know.
And nobody here has seen or found me on FB.
Man do I love midgets.

Not at the time.

I wish I could go.
But I always work Friday nights. I need to get back into the LL spirit.

I'll have a friend along.
If we’re lucky, Red’ll beat the crap outta him.
by James F'n X on Nov 20, 2008 9:42 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
But he didn't, did he?
Neither did you. I’ll have to deal with Red tonight, though. :)
The tater tots were as delicious as imagined. Long time reader, first time poster – I was the schlub in the Willie Bloomquist jersey, because dammit, somebody had to bring the grit.

HEY! You posted, I was having my doubts.
Now for phase II of my Willie Bloomquist conquers Major League Baseball to commence! Knowing you exist somehow validates my opinion of him. Watch me get cocky and get banned.

Last chance all of you,
who’s bowling tonight? I’m checking out to head home to Everett to get Jeanuts, then heading south.
