OK. Once again the schedule is altered to allow for dining with FT friends.
Put me in the "attending" column and see you next week.

Finally coming up for air - work has me on the road 17 days in March, including this coming Tuesday as I'll be in Manchester TN and likely having BBQ for dinner.

Move me upfront - I'll be there.

Finally coming up for air - work has me on the road 17 days in March.....air is good, sorry you can't make this one.
Move me upfront - I'll be there.good deal^ First Class it is.

Changed my plans. Now I can make it. I hate to always wait til the last minute to reserve, but I'll be there-early!

Sorry but a schedule conflict will prevent from making this one. Have a great time everyone.

I'm a yes.

Is the start time 6:30 for sure? It was listed as probablly in the OP.

SW

Enjoyed the last two gettogethers...alas cannot make this one.

I should be able to make it tomorrow.

I don't think I will be making it tomorrow night - have fun!

] but I'll be there-early!

I'll be heading over right after work, so should be there early. I'll be holding down a bar stool and attempting to kill another keg!

Also in PHX watching my beloved baseball team prep for World Series run and considering sticking around in case my beloved basketball team needs to win 2 here en route to New Orleans. (afterall, someone took the Final Four game off Michigan State's regular schedule last year; it was most upsetting).

Please upgrade me also to a YES

Please count me in also.

I'm still going with the Cuban Sandwich :)

Well, my evening opened up (plus I took a shower/shaved today and don't want to waste it!), so I am going to head on down via Metra Electric and walk over.

Unless someone happens to be driving right by Millennium Station around 5:45. Otherwise it looks like a nice day.

Just saw this, looks awesome. But it seems like I'm going to be stuck at the office for a while tonight (especially if I keep ending up on FT instead of working :)), maybe I can stop by for a beer though.

Well, my evening opened up (plus I took a shower/shaved today and don't want to waste it!)aww crap, now you're raising the hygiene bar:D

glad you can make it.
...maybe I can stop by for a beer though.I'm guessing a few folks will be hanging around for a drink or 3 after dinner.

Hang around a bar after dinner? Doesn't sound like us. :-D

Although there was that time we shut down the AC after a flight.

Any way, glad to see you all. Still, where do I feed the meter?

Wonderful to see some old friends again, and to the new friends--fantastic to meet you all! Thanks for coming down to my 'hood, and I hope you enjoyed the food, beer, and company. :)

BIG thanks to Sweet Willie for organizing this! Great Tuesday night diversion.

Such fun tonight! But Willie is in big trouble for sneaking out without saying goodbye. How on earth can we lavish our gratitude if you disappear? Thanks for organizing!

"Your ears hurting is better than my..."

wait we need to ask the mod to move this to the Chicago forum ;)

Had a great time. Thanks for everyone and especially to the ladies.

Another superb choice by Willie.

It was good to meet some new FTers and to see some old friends. Thanks Willie.

One person at my end of the table wanted everyone to know about the Chicago forum:

Sorry to miss this. When's the next one? I'm around for a few weeks.

There's a Chicago forum?

Weep, weep for the keg of Green Line.

Weep, weep for the keg of Green Line. that's right !!! we killed a keg last night :)
There's a Chicago forum?
there is some good info tucked into that forum and it has a most awesome moderator.Such fun tonight! But Willie is in big trouble for sneaking out without saying goodbye.I realized this when I was a few steps out the door, my bad, I waited until the last minute before having to dash to my train which I suppose I couldn't call what I did dashing after all the food & beer:D

Thanks zcat18 for assisting with this Do at "your" watering hole. Also big congrats to you & your +1, it was a pleasure to meet her.

My pleasure! Great to have you guys in my neck of the woods. Soon-to-be Mrs. zcat18 had an absolute blast, as well--I think we're creating a FT monster! ;)

A real fun night! Lasted over three hours with a great turnout. Now if only I could have understood the directions...

Dined with old friends and made new ones - always a neat thing!

Congrats to the "cats" on their upcoming wedding!

Once again, fun times with good folks.

As always, thanks to Willie for putting it together. Nice pub that I would have never known about....although I will admit I have had a better Cuban sandwich. However, the mustard served with the pretzel rolls....nice!

I will also add my congrats to the betrothed Cats couple. I didn't get much of a chance to talk with you guys, but turning someone into a "FT Monster" sounds like fun work.

Hopefully see everyone again at the next one.....

Had a very good time - thank you everyone for contributing - and Sweet Willie, a special thanks for organizing.

In addition, Zcat, enjoyed your neighborhood: I do not get there nearly as ofter as I should.

Many thanks, iluv2fly, goodeats21, and u2fan for the well wishes! Glad you all enjoyed the Tap. It's a nice, tucked-away neighborhood place that I visit far too often for my own good. The quality of the Cuban sandwich...well, I guess that's up for debate. :)

Looking forward to doing it again at the next venue (though, sadly, we will miss the Oak Park do). Have a great weekend all!
