Minneapolis - tell me what to do

Just get this 90-degree stuff over with in the next 2 weeks.

I guess I should go into St Paul for something this time. Izzy's Ice Cream?

Make sure to hit the Trend Bar.

Speaking as someone who used to have band practice in a room above The Trend, hahaha!

amusing Yelp reviews

Did we determine what day will be Morbsday? I am still thinking about coming in for the weekend, at least for a day or so.

Well, I'm abashed that you would, as landmark an event as this is.

I have a Twins game on Friday night (the 29th), otherwise flexible... Sat eve or Sunday late afternoonish? Staying in the heart of downtown but can meet you anywhere walkable or busable.

watch out for Polar bears.

I like sunday afternoon fwiw.

or we could just go see Crumb (semi-j/k)

If you have the time/ability, that's a really cute little (like, really really little) theater!

The Room is also showing somewhere, but you know me and bad movies.

They do that every month, just about. I have to think the crowds have thinned away.

perfect! (in theory)

i can do saturday evening or sunday afternoon i think.

i was planning to be up thatta way w/ some friends for pride stuff that weekend but with my car's timely death probably not. i never get to do stuff.

oh no wrong weekend. lol wedding anyway. see. hope everybody has fun!

Oh yeah Morbs. You're missing pride by a week.

I will be mostly avoiding it here

i can't remember anything about jjj's story about his friend at pride, but it was so funny just started laughing at the memory of him telling it

Will be in town next week, Sunday thru Wednesday morn

might be able to hang but will be in the final stages of shooting AP's corpse into the space that is NYC starship troopers style.

Ah, alright.

it isnt a no go! i just have to figure out what is actually going on. also i feel remiss that you have not met henry.

i mean judging by your facebook feed you hate animals and all, i think he might be able to change your mind.

I dunno; I'm pretty doubtful.

95 on Wednesday? I tol' ya to take care of that, peeps.

Flying in today thru Chicago first, which is editing weird because MSP is a hub, but hey it's more billable travel hours so whatever.

Maybe I'll get a chance to visit Planet Snoopy this time

okay, so nighttime-only tickets to the park are $20, that's doable.

Also, I'm at a Best Western in Shakopee, and they have frickin' pachinko machines in here, operational, only without any balls to play pachinko with.

I did not expect to find pachinko machines here, to put it mildly.

btw I think you mean Camp Snoopy

nope, they got upgraded when they split from the mall of america, apparently:

I didn't know about the split! I stand corrected

No problem. I know this is the kiddie ride-only area of the park, but I love Peanuts to death and wandering around there would probably be fair more fulfulling than Disneyland, barring their two differing levels of park- and production design.

Camp Snoopy has been replaced by Nickelodeon Universe, where you're greeted by a creepy bronze Spongebob at the entrance.

Did you guys decide on a day yet? I'm probably going to be out of town for my mom's birthday or my sister's, trying to figure out which

next few days are going to be terrible for me, it turns out. have fun everybody, enjoy the weather.

People seem to favor Sunday for my stay, mh, and the convention really doesn't wind down til Saturday evening.

okey dokey, I will maybe take Monday off of work

:o

I am not drinking way into the night, I'm flying to Quad Cities Monday morning.

Well, it's a 3.5 hour drive for me, I'd rather have a couple drinks and chill and drive back in the morning!

I have to work really late on Satuday, so Sunday really is the best option unless maybe we're talking Friday night.

Also, lol @ Shakopee hotel accoutrement.

Tomorrow's my last evening in town(or suburb). Lemme know if anybody's up for meeting up

Grrr, I'm totally stacked tomorrow in screenings, or I'd want make a venture back south of the river.

Friday night ees ballgame for me

I'm here. I just spent close to 90 mins getting the hotel Wifi to work, so the sooner we get a Sunday plan (around 3-3:30 pm?) the better. An outdoor beer gardenish place, if it's not 95 on Sunday?

If I don't fall asleep, my first event is a baseball authors panel at the Nicollet Mall B&N at 6:30 tonight, but I wouldn't recommend it for non-fans. Also is there a good non-ripoff burger somewhere downtown?

McCormick and Schmick's, 9th and Nicollet Mall. It's a chain and all, and crowded after work, but their happy hour burger/fries will set you back 3 bucks.

Hey Dan, I got an empty ilx mail from you a few days ago, so if that wasn't a glitch, you should resend whatever it was.

My wife and I are totally in for Sunday btw.

Me too, gonna do some location scouting for future travels too. So, 3pm somewhere?

assuming that morbs is going to be on the mpls side, so we are looking for patio potential on that side of the river, right?

all my favorite patios are STPL because i am just like that

I have a bus schedule for St Paul.

also I expected u ppl to tell me abt stuff like this:
