Jeesh, how's that for a long thread title? :D
At any rate, some people had mentioned getting together for lunch or something Sunday, 2/15, so I took the liberty of suggesting a time and also contacting Shibley's to make sure they would be open and that they take reservations...... as it's buried in the Forum Flyer thread, I've started this new one to see if there's any/how much interest in actually doing a lunch thing.
I wish I knew how to post a link between this thread and that one, but I don't, so I'll do excerpts:

Soooooooo, here's my suggestion:
I would suggest a 1:30 or 2:00 lunch time, and need a "guest list" so I can give them an idea of how many of us to expect.............. So I'll start the list. Please cut and paste to add yourself to the list, just like the summer ForumFests.
Let's all meet at the bandstand, the side "facing" Shibleys -- if I had a pole with a thong I'd put it there but I don't so.......... any volunteers? If not, I'll just blow up a couple of balloons and tape them to my hood, lol.
Hope to hear from ya'll soon!
Guest list:
1. Waterbaby and Son (2)
2. gh@altonbay (1) - probably with the only car with NJ plates in the lot (dark gray 2004 Malibu) (from what he posted)
I did hear from Shibley's, they just need an estimate of time and will worry about the # later.............
