“How many different classifications are there, Biff?”
Just two:
Official Gatherings: Union Hall, Floyd NY, Rope, Ellis and the upcoming Union Hall Party.
Unofficial Gatherings: Ratifico, Brooklyn Inn, Waterfront Ale House/Floyd NY, Pete’s Candy Store, Mezcal’s, Clover Club
Any other important matters of business I need to tend to today?
Pending Home Sales +6.4% MOM vs. +1.0% expected.
Discuss.
hey, who is going to the Crown Heights tour and are any meeting up to stroll thru together?
I think I’ll go but wont get there till around 12:30 or so
i want to see jester do the worm. it sounds priceless. maybe that can be our “bait” to get cobble snaps back in for oct 15???
“was that brooklyn inn one not an official bash? sounds like you all had a big turnout for that one.”
Nope, another “unofficial” one, CG_ups. The “official” ones are more heavily promoted, i.e., in other threads, as the event draws near and planned weeks in advance and get around 30-35 people. The others, including Brooklyn Inn, are usually just mentioned in the OT close to the drinkup date and draw approximately 10-15 people.
Hmmm, I didn’t realize the position of Prez entailed ruling on such important matters.
DIBS, I don’t consider Pacifico to be one of the big gatherings. It was more an unadvertised mini, impromptu one
And the Candy Store.

i liked rope. that is a good place. we need to branch out. was that brooklyn inn one not an official bash? sounds like you all had a big turnout for that one.
i think i’m going to the botanical garden this weekend. wonder if it will be crowded. tried to go one year during the cherry blossoms and it was like freakin mardi gras.
DIBS, I don’t consider Pacifico to be one of the big gatherings. It was more an unadvertised mini, impromptu one, like our other gatherings at Waterfront Ale House. The five I mentioned were the biggies.
“Can’t wait ’till ENY hears all of this.”
I spent several years as a travel writer, and have been to Europe plenty of times, and even to Oslo. As a result, I’ve pissed in all manner of urinals, from “tall” ones to “troughs” to holes in the ground. So Benson’s experience is not unfamiliar. Luckily, I’m around 5’10” (in height).
