Title: a new Grapevine Thing
Post by: Morgan Buchanan on October 23, 2006, 07:02:41 AM
So is there seemed to be some interest in starting up a Grapevine thing.  Any particular day of the week better for anyone?  Let's take an informal poll....

For weekdays, I prefer Tuesday or Thursday, for weekends, Friday or Saturday are both fine by me... on weekends I can't make one, I can't make the other either.

Now that it's getting colder, I'd think we'd want an indoor place.  Does everyone more or less want to eat dinner?  Right now I don't think there's so many that we can't get a table big enough, but that'd be something we'd have to address in the future.

Thoughts?  Input?

Sure, let's get something started! Weekdays or weekends, does not matter to me.  Dinner would be good, as long as it is not sonic!   Let's see what the masses have to add to this.

Week days are a better bet for me if I have a choice. Weekends would be hit or miss depending on what the kids have going on, but still could be done most of the time. We are definatly interested.

We might kick it off with a M&G at Wilhoites Friday night and kick it around and see how everybody feels about places. :) :) :)

Not sure if I could make it weekdays or weekends but if you call Wilhoites and reserve the room upstairs they have always let us have it for free in the past...  Did it many times!

We do need to get something started here on the west side, be it Wilhoites or Up in Smoke on HWY 377...

Up in Smoke is right down the road and I know the owner, they have a nice backyard type of area we could party/meet at...  All I would need is a few days notice to have it planed out..

What do you guys think about Up in Smoke, They also have great BBQ Ribs and Corn fritters.. Mmmmm!

Yep I was there from last Monday till Friday afternoon. The costumed drunks -- That's why you didn't see or reconize me cause I was one of them.  :D :D  Where'd yall stay? We stayed at the Riveria, but spent a lot of time at Circus Circus. Didn't do to bad, after 4 days of gaming I lost less than a hundred and if you get down to it, I actually came out ahead cause I got to stay drunk on them  O0 O0  Can't wait to go back cause didn't get to do some of the things I really wanted to do, like win for one.  ;D ;D ;D
Hope yawl had a good time too!!

We stayed at the Luxor, but gambled all over the strip.  My wife won 200 bucks at the stratosphere, and I lost a lot at the Nugget downtown.  All in all, we were down about 200 in the end.  Saw some good shows, drank some free liquor and saw lots of weird folks.

Amen to the weird folks. Did you ever see the movie Blade Runner with Harrison Ford? Walkin the streets at night there reminded me alot of the street scenes in that movie because of all the different styles and different F-niks of people.

I got screwed out of being able to attend by having to help my wife with a wedding she was in this weekend.  Otherwise, I'd have thought about the Hurst thing.  I could have stopped in the cage on the way by i suppose.  LOL  But then she'd have been late to the bachelorette party, which is bad form for the matron of honor.
