Geo, under my definition... that's a Gathering, hastily thrown together.
Now if you had you, me, wanderlust, ess, newself and six other people gathering at that pub we went to in NYC (whose name escapes me) and Koko crashes the "gathering" that makes a dozen people and THAT mostly like would be considered a DO. (one more distinction of a DO... it's somewhat planned ahead of time.)
Beacuse it's centered around one location and probably for an event/good reason (like to celebrate everything from Your birthday to my NJ Nets beating a certain Long Beach ambassador's team from that other coast in the NBA finals
-- if that matchup comes to pass. )
FYI Larry U: Love that praise! Let's add it to
The Flyertalk Dictionary.
