Count me in for the next Happy Hour or dinner. May I add, that I am just learning of these gatherings, and I think they're a great idea! ^
May I suggest a restaurant in the Georgetown area -- or perhaps the DCA Legal?

. Speaking of the Shamrock Do, it's 2?16-2/20 or so, which would rule out Tazi & myself...not sure who, if anyone else, from DC/BWI is going. 2/12 remains do-able for me, and/or any non-superbowl time this weekend.

Anyone fancy dinner/drinks this evening? I'm with a coworker but he'd probably be up for it also.

I'll be around later. I've got a work function that I should go to...one of those work things that one doesn't "have" to go to but "should" go to--you do your work duty, you make your appearance, you put on the game face and smile like you like it, then be glad you have a reason to leave . It will go 'til about 8 or so...then I'm free.

I'm in for 2/12. Since Chinese New Year has just passed, why not a dim sum brunch in Chinatown DC as a change of pace.

Wow! Where have you been partying without us? I too prefer a change of pace and therefore the Dubliner sounds good to me!
Let's hear from the others folks - and then we can make a decision.
Date Fixed - 2/12
Sorry Chrisw. We can arrange something again after 2/12. ^

Sounds like 2/12 is a go along with the Dubliner. Let's see if Tazi gets to show up this time.
