Yeah, me too.

so, Monday quiz look OK?

Hope so.

I should be down for this.

cool. I don't know how many ppl per team, but maybe if we get 5+ we'll just divvy up.

i invited a friend but i don't know if she's in or not.

okay, my friend is in so we have someone in case there are questions about soap operas and stuff.

aargh, don't count on me for this Monday. I am swamped with year-end film stuff, I may be starting a new job Tuesday morning, and worse yet, I may NOT be starting a new job Tuesday morning...

only just now saw this, I'm out of town right now but could probably do it this Monday ....

Gabbneb, I think you would really dig Henry Public, which just opened on Henry St.

(Henry btw Atlantic & Pacific)

And btw has anyone tried Prime Meats? It's hard for me to convince myself to go that far into Carroll Gardens but if people say it's worth it I'll give it a shot.

dave, i'd love to see you!
I'd also like to meet hurting tbh.

Aw shucks man, I'd like to meet you too. Unfortunately I am in the midst of finals, so this Monday is for sure out.

brooklyn ain't goin nowhere.

so, is dmr & mookie down for tonight? ken? if not that's cool but we should plan for some future monday cuz trivia is dope imo.

I could do this! Sounds fun if the triv isn't TOO pop-culturey. JBR and Ken and I went to Mag Fields trivia night once but I felt like the quality of the ?s was kind of a let-down.

I'm still in if we have enough people. Was about to bump this to see if we were still on. What time will you guys get to Sharlene's, around 8?

xpost looks like we're still on

eight sounds good to me!

'm bringing a friend, so that's four of us at least. think sh4nn0n would wanna come, dave?

I asked .... I don't think she wants to but I'll check again when I'm leaving the apt.

Tell her I'm going!

maybe I will blow off the screening of the dubious movie my editor is raving about -- Sherlock Holmes -- and join y'all anyway.

prime meats is not THAT far from the bar you recommended, hurting!

it's seriously only a 20 minute walk, depending on how fast you walk (i can do this much faster than that but i often walk at a near-run if i'm not walking with other people) - i would say go.

have not been to Prime Meats but I did try Buttermilk Channel last week. recommended!

buttermilk channel is great. that duck meatloaf is delicious and they've always got a good selection of BOE wines rotating in there. i want to go for brunch but haven't done it yet.

Dunno if I can do this tonight. Sorry guys.

xpost - yup the duck meatloaf was what I had

yeah ari and i went to bmilk channel last week & loved it. everything was great except the bacon wrapped trout which was only 'good.' its a little pricey for me tho.

fried chicken was ridiculous though, could have fed three people

Or one (1) Ian.

start the new temp job tomorrow so you guys are gonna have to do half of my drinking for me.

Okay RAAAH! job but BOOOOOOO staying in!

he said half, not all! that means he stay sober longer, better for answering questions about baseball.

Oh phew, I was reading that somehow as, like, we should drink half as much again to make up for him. Which is...never mind. See you @ 8! And I've been listening to super bouncy dancey soul for a couple of hours so basically I'm hyper now.

yah i wanna do this but can't make it tonight ;_;

GAH is it just gonna be me and Ian?!

I'M COMING, dammit

RIGHT okay, plus a friend of Ian's so that's 4 I guess.

I said from the start I was coming

Press On, Brave Souls!

did u guys win it ???

no, neither Team A nor B.

Drinking that late really did fuck me up all week (5 hrs sleep every night).

is there pub quiz tonight

I was kinda wondering if anyone's up for round 2

p.s. apparently each week's movie category is 10 questions on one movie and they reveal it the week before. tonights movie category is nu-Star Trek

i would be down.
B**** aske me last night if we were gonna do it again and I did not know.

(i've seen nu star trek but uh, i was maybe a little stoned.)

I wd go. I asked roommate who is Trekkie if she would quiz w us but she hasn't slept at home in like 4 days so I have no idea what she's doing now?

cool. meet there 8:45 and we'll see who shows
