Mlle. Zabzie Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 PJ Clarkes is a chain... I've been to the one in Chicago. Would rather have something local... :)True, but the original is, in fact, on 55th and 3rd Avenue, in a building that they famously did not sell when the rest of Midtown was being developed. It's been there for over 100 years (and was featured in Mad Men!). The Chicago branches, I believe, have only been around since the mid 1980s (as opposed to 1880s). Parvenues :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iskaral Pust Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I'm not attending the Con, but I might be able to drop in to say hello. I work close to Time Sq.But I haven't met anyone from the board IRL before, so I'll be carefully weighing your potential as kidney-harvesting whackjobs in the next few weeks.

Mr. X Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 But I haven't met anyone from the board IRL before, so I'll be carefully weighing your potential as kidney-harvesting whackjobs in the next few weeks.The many, many ice cube trays and ice buckets in my freezer were made for the cocktail party we had last weekend, I swear!:leaving: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mlle. Zabzie Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I think my kidneys are ok.....after this weekend, though, my liver might be considering going on strike :)You should stop by! I've only ever met one person from the board in IRL. I emerged, kidneys intact, so I'm willing to repeat the experiment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naz Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Bah, humbug! I, of course, will only be attending in spirit and am only posting in this thread because... well, I don't know actually. Because I want to be there but can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mlle. Zabzie Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 My rough count is 16 so far. Do the New Yorker's think it's worth reserving space anywhere or do we think that it may be that people roll in and out that we're better off just chooosing an Irish pub that we think will be more or less quiet.....

Xray the Enforcer Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I think the latter. Less stress that way. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turinqui-Calima Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Is everyone still on for this? (Too many worldcon threads for me to keep up with. I get confused)LP - maybe you want to update the list of people? Are we pretty much set on the Gingerman without reservations?If it doesn't work out I will be blaming Pod.

Mr. X Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 If it doesn't work out I will be blaming Pod.And if it does work out you can blame him anyway. In person!ETA: Oh, and to actually answer your question, Xray and I are still down for meeting up, though we won't show up until after dinner.

Bellis Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I'm flying back to Philly that morning from visiting my SO, so I probably won't be up to trekking to NYC later that same day, so count me out for now. If I do make it, it'll be a very last minute decision (and I'll need crash space at the hotel). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
