NYC Dinner Thread

[barrysloate]

I haven't revived this thread because I am at a bit of an impasse. A couple of regulars from our group emailed that June 21 won't work. So I am at square one without a date or a venue.

Anybody have any ideas? I'm putting out an SOS.

Maybe you could do a poll for a date? Only people attending can vote and you can make the votes public. IF someone votes and doesn't go we can put them in timeout or something.

I can plan this pretty quickly...like I've done many times prior.

I'll see what Barry wants to do.

I probably have the easiest schedule, with just about any June date available, and I eat all kinds of food. So if anybody else wants to suggest a time and a venue, don't be bashful. I can be there.

Don't start what you can't finish.
You should learn from previous disasters, seriously. Just pick the date and venue well in advance and whoever makes it, makes it. Nobody in the business world would plan a meeting this way.

Thanks Peter. But this is not a business world meeting. Just a couple of guys getting together for a an evening of dinner and drinks.

So I'll pick a new date. It's June 14. I like a Thursday for some reason so that's it. Who's in? Please post on this thread if you can make it June 14.

If I was Octavio’s sister (I’m not), I would gladly change my birthday to the 31st of June for the benefit of the New York City Dinner thread.

Sorry, I'm busy on the 31st.

I am 50-50 for June 14th. Will know closer to the date. I don't think my presence will make or break the event for you guys. Thanks, Barry!

Hope you can make it Carl.
