Title: Lincoln Lunch Bunch, 3-1-2014 Northside Cafe
Post by: gsd on February 16, 2014, 11:42:26 PM
Gonna try something a bit different here, maybe the IDPA guys will show up to this one :P
EDITED FOR NEW LOCATION

How about a lunch meeting at a familiar greasy spoon of goodness?

Noon at the Northside Cafe.

Who's game? I know the Gretna Coffee is going on that morning, I turned it over to a couple other members and split the meeting between Omaha and Lincoln because we were just getting too big for one location.

Now, if we can get one going in Grand Island, and Kearney, and York... ;D

See you there,
Dave

Maybe the Northside Grille a more considerable location as many of us already go there after the match.  However, you must come up with a more MANLY name than "Lunch Bunch"

How about "The Great Lincoln Bacon Massacre"?

It was late, I was tired. Be glad I even managed to spell it ;D

How about the Lancaster Belt Blaster meeting? Local Brotherhood of Belly Expansion Engineers? Gastric Expansion Research Division? ( I like that one, we can call it GERD for short)

Is this still going to be at the Hi-Way Diner?  (Wow, I used to go there a lot when I lived and worked out there...boy do I NOT miss my job at the State Pen.)  Or at the Northside Grille? 

As bullit said, IDPA folks are right next to the Northside Grille when they get finished, some of us will be heading back up to Omaha/Plattsmouth/Louisville after lunch---and Highway 2 is a bit in the wrong direction.  :)

(I know, I know, it isn't all about me.  :) )

I am cool with either, Hi-Way was just the fiat tha came to my sleep deprived mind when I made the topic.

All in favor of Northside?

Either one works for me.

Where's the final magical meeting place?  If all you rednecks are cool with a culturally ambiguous chick showing up. ::)

Culturally ambiguous? :)  Variety is the spice of life, kiddo.  I'm sure you'll be welcome, wherever this will take place. :)

Northside Grille, right gsd?   :)

If everyone comes out to the IDPA match beforehand, it'll make it easy for everyone to meet for food at the right time.  (And then we can talk everyone into coming up to ENGC for the USPSA match the next day...)   ;D

Yep yep Northside Grille it is.

See you all there.

I'm planning on embarrassing myself at the IDPA match and then going to lunch.  Hopefully I have my equipment problems worked out so now all I have to blame is myself.

Yeah, Northside is the place to hear Brian complain about his gear:)

I dunno, girls have cooties.  But then again, you like guns, so maybe the cooties are offset by that.

Oh no you didn't.....  :P

I regret that I will not be able to attend said get together this month as I have a prior family commitment.  (Not that I have attended any as of yet, but I plan too.)  I will try to leave my cooties at home.  ;)

Ugh....I was hoping to make the USPSA match until just now when I looked at the forecast for Sunday.

<jedi handwave>  You will come to the match anyway.  It will be fun.  You will now go prepare your equipment. </jedi handwave>


As for girls at the lunch bunch---if you are a shooter, you are welcome to come out!  Even if you are an ucky girl!  :P

Hey, I just checked the weather again for Sunday and it's going to be downright balmy.  The forecast went up a whole 2 degrees to 10.

See?  It'll be great!  (And no classifier to screw up, so that'll help.)

...At lunch, just a warning for folks:  I'm horrible with names and faces (I remember both, but can't match them) so unless you label yourself with your name AND your forum ID, I may be clueless even if we have spoken before.

Seriously, I'm ridiculously bad with names and faces.  So if you see a guy wearing the PRT spiral logo who seems clueless about people---that's me.

When letting the venue know a number add a couple spots, a couple people running for office may stop by to say hello.

Probably more.  I think we had that many last time after the IDPA match, with just IDPA folks there.
