DC Area Nerd Gathering

Tony Nassar proposes that we do a little get-together for those of us living in the DC area on Wednesday night, March 31st, starting at 6:30 at On The Border in the Tyson's Corner area. I think it's a fine idea! After all, we can't let the Denver and Portland guys have all the fun. Leave comments here if you plan to attend.

    The address is 8053 Leesburg Pike; Vienna, VA 22182. Anyone thinking of bringing a toddler, btw? Mine has seen me drink beer; I don't think he'd be shocked, and he loves tortilla chips.

    As much as my wife would like me to network back in the DC area, and Ah so close, to the in-laws just around the corner but to far to travel during the middle of the week.

    Would it be possible to move to a weekend night?

    If I lived just slightly closer (I'm in Harrisburg, PA), I'd show up and bring my toddler, though you might not want yours getting too friendly with mine: he would be bugging everyone to let him drink their beer!

    We're not getting a good response for Wednesday - looks like we might call it. Are there specific times or places that would mean people *could* make it?

    A weekend is fine; I assumed that everyone would already have things to do, but traffic is so awful that a weekday shindig would exclude all the MD developers. Tony (Bova), propose a day, time, and possibly alternate place. Perhaps somewhere closer to the Potomac?

    Well, contrary to my original proposal, a weekend is beginning to seem preferable. Let me propose 2:00, Saturday, at Jaleo in DC: http://www.digitalcity.com/washington/dining/venue.adp?sbid=102182267&type=details. Much hipper than a Chili's affiliate.

    Ugg, Sorry I've just checked with my wife and I'm helping her with a birthday party that day. I travel on Sunday so that's out too. Maybe I'll miss the inagural event.

    And I might have to meet with a tax attorney. Which would I prefer: eating tapas and drinking wine, or talking to a lawyer?

    OK, so is anyone going to be there besides me? Saturday is my day to write code for myself, after all. :)

    So, given the lack of response, the whole thing is off. We'll try again some time soon. Watch this blog for details.
