[dflprincess]

If we can get a count I can call Fong's and let them know we're coming so they have tables set up for us. (I'll give them a call tomorrow and give them a guess of 20, but let them know the number could change later in the week.)

[katinmn]

11. Yay! Haven't seen you in ages

I missed the last meetup where you had live blogging. :hi:

[dpbrown]

12. Fong's probably doesn't have a wireless connection

It was nice being camped out beneath the Holiday Inn, since we could piggyback on their signal.

Yee-haw!

[dflprincess]

13. I believe it does

I'm sure I saw a sign near their door that says they have wireless and the last time I was there I saw a couple people working on their laptops (though I don't know that they were on line).

14. I can't make it! :-(

Divameow77 will be out of town for work until next Sunday. Mr. Divameow77 has to work saturday evening, so I'm taking care of their offspring. I would bring them with, but at 3 and 8 not only is there nothing at Fong's they would want to eat I'm afraid they would quickly degenerate into their best birth-control behavior, ifyouknowwhatImean.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

15. That's okay--I still have your barbecue spatula!
