lizard_brain Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I'd go, but I'm going to the dicussion of the fate of the mount rainier national park at the mountaineers building tomorrow. If the pub club is nearby, or between the mountaineers and my home I may stop by. (It'd be a lot easier if I knew where it was. I may just stop at all the bars between downtown and my place just to check.) Quote

Dru Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Lets have it in Chilliwack this week you guys can all sleep on my floor afterwards and the ladies can use my bed Quote
hikerwa Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I thought "THE" pub club was being held downtown, and "ALISON'S" pub club is in greenlake. I'm going Downtown, and then to the Alki later to get a burger!!! Quote
rodeo Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I like Dru's idea. It would give me a chance to try out my new Invernos that I picked up this weekend. (--Climb on,,, Quote
allthumbs Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 9:58AM 2" new snow on ground at trask's house (sea level) Snowing hard!!! WTF??? Quote
allison Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Uh, actaully that was last week, it was on Phinney Ridge, and it was Icegirl who suggested it, not me. You really shouldn't sniff so much glue, not only does it seem to be damaging your memory, but you'll also ruin your skin! Quote
hikerwa Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Oh, I forgot that the pub club was at phinney ridge last week, I was in Issaquah with an informal bunch of climbers... Sorry for the confusion. Quote
allison Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Hey, if that thing over in Issy had been "just an informal bunch of climbers" as you suggest, then there wouldn't have been fur flying from here to Beacon Hill over "the Rotation", and mattp wouldn't have had to pull out the Rulebook. Don't be speaking lightly about the Pub Club, or you'll be the next Spraymate of the Month. Quote
W Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I and I think many others were thinking of going to this NPS forum tomorrow evening at 6:30, Mountaineer's Clubhouse. So if this Pub thingy is going to be somewhere not far from that I might be interested. But how many more dozen posts and pages will it take until a vague indication of where this thing will be held is agreed upon? And how many posts will have to be cross-referenced to confirm? When it's finally decided, can someone be designated to post: LOCATION, TIME, and then have Jon close the thread so it is read-only or something? Quote
jon Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Spraybonbon, I thought it was decided that it was going to be at Owl n Thistle? Guiness Quote
rayborbon Posted March 18, 2002 Author Posted March 18, 2002 Ok if you say so. I will find the diros and see if I can make it. What time is this NPS stuff going to end? Quote
bobinc Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I suggest we rent an RV which holds a keg and hire a driver and have the pub club at various points within a 60 mile radius of the Space Needle. There will also be a single malt tasting; bring your favorite bottle. Quote
hikerwa Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Yes Owl and Thistle. For the return of the Great David Parker! Quote
W Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 where is the Owl and Thistle? Ray- supposedly the meeting ends at 8:30. Quote
rodeo Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 The Owl & Thistle is at 808 Post Alley, which is just around the corner from Fado on 1st Ave. (--Climb on,,, Quote
lizard_brain Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Those of us that go to the NPS forum can take notes and some digital photos, do a little graphic work, then do a powerpoint presentation at the Owl and Thistle. Just make sure they have a powerpoint projector and a PA system available. (Travelling mikes, please.) I'm sure that all of the patrons there will enjoy the presentation. Quote
allthumbs Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Best place to hide out in Seattle and get tanked. The Zig Zag Café (1501 Western, 625-1146) is the spot to slink into after (or during) work to ease your occupational and/or existential pain with a few strong and perfectly mixed cocktails. The Zig Zag is tucked in the zig of the Pike Place Hillclimb, right by El Puerco Lloron (another place you should know about if you don't already), and thus suffers no irritating car traffic noise. It's intimate and dim, with the bar glowing ever so invitingly and dapper, sweet bartenders at your service (other restaurant people hang out here, so you know they make good drinks). The windows have velvet curtains that can be pulled in the event of the reinstatement of Prohibition, the menu includes good tapas to soak up the martinis, and a nice little outdoor seating area steps-side can make a sunny happy hour (with drink specials from 5 to 7) pretty damn happy. This isn't an ideal place for the pub club, but it's an idea for other more high-flown events. [ 03-18-2002: Message edited by: trask ] Quote

chelle Posted March 19, 2002 Posted March 19, 2002 Looking forward to seeing my pub club pals tomorrow night at the Owl and Thistle. Last time we were there I think our numbers topped 25 at the height. It's a cool place. To the cc.comers spraying about alternate locations, having arguments about who started what or can take whom in how many moves, etc. Be there...or not. The rest of us will have fun regardless.
