2. You can count my vote double
Dragongentleman will be there too. (Mad Mug is a nice place--we've had some very good times there.)

3. I will be out of the state, but do have fun...
I'm not sure what the threshold is for "I live near the Mad Mug," but in the grand scheme of things, yes, I do.

Say :hi: to everyone for me!

4. By acclamation, let's call it for the Mad Mug.
It *is* a good place, serving both hot and cold beverages and sandwiches as well, and the original post did start out as a 'Welcome Fudge Stripe' & Reprehensor topic. (I forgot.)

Thanks for posting the poll, I wasn't sure how many folks from outside the metro area might be on the fence about doing a little extra driving.

5. Well, therein lies a problem...
The Mug isn't normally open on a Saturday night. The owner said he'd be willing to open for a crowd, but eight people - half of which are maybes - doesn't exactly constitute a crowd.

The Mug is open on Friday nights. What about switching to Friday the 25th, the night before?

6. Works for us.
And we're relatively close. Just depends on how soon after work. How late are they open on Friday?

13. Okay, we're all set for Friday eve, the 25th. If Jimbo gets there about 5:30...
...and grabs a table, the rest of us can arrive between 5:30 and 6:30. The Mad Mug will stay open for us till 8 or 9. How's that work for everyone?

16. Kicking because...
...I'm frickin' sick'n tired of PackersPackersPackers. And being a Progressive patriot (as well as a Progressive Patriot), I am compelled to act upon my convictions.

So, Packers, take THAT:kick:

17. Speaking as a sports fan, first,
I hear you.

I'll be rooting for them, but you're right, it's another form of media control over the most vulnerable element in our society, the 'weak-minded'.
