No, you must be thinking of Zorak.: Ironically, after I typed that I had the same thought as you.

I'm not sure how to gauge that comment, but let me drink a Belgium Style Ale while I air out my thoughts.

You're in the wrong country and at least several months too late: spagel season is centered in Germany in the spring. Asparagus dinner with a prom chop chaser and of course beer/wine. Hmmmmm.....this could go with Belgian framboise on a hot day, especially if the asparagus is white (as it usually is).

Morning to you too! figuring I'll hit the back roads from ITH ~1000 Sun, so is early afternoon still workable for a Harrisburg-area meetup?

Aren't you expecting to be celebrating after the game?

much of the Sat evening post-game social activity involves the head coach and players and hangers-on from the 1972 Final Four team, so I'd venture to guess "celebrating" will be fairly controlled ... I also need to be at work at the Pentagon ~0800 Mon, so even the proposed Harrisburg stop will probably be a bit more low-key than some of our previous ones

Puns aren't nearly as fun when I have to explain them...

who says you have to explain anything? just because one individual doesn't get it has nothing to do with how good everyone else thinks it is

Sounds good to me. Just text me with an ETA on Sunday. Federal Taphouse?

Let me put some thought into it and see if there is anywhere else. Al's will probably be busy with football, and I feel like the food is better at Federal Taphouse, but I'll do a little searching tomorrow.
