I vote for the bowling alley! Watch out now, folks. I'm a member of the Juilliard Bowling Club, too (though not actually a Juilliard student).

Wait a minute... Do I know you?

Gimme a date, and I'll be there...I'm on Long Island so its a very short trip. I'm sure Daydreams will come also.... Any of the 3 late summer dates would be great!

I'm intrigued. There's a good chance I can make it, so I'll try my darndest to make it stick. It would be fascinating to actually meet you people :)

My vote is sometime between july 16 and august 14 :)

August 1st is a Sunday, is it not? I would probably be up for something on that day.

august 1st sounds great

how about....ummmmm.......

hell if i know :)

Okay... so let's pick August 1st as the meeting date...


so far people like the idea of a bowling outing? rent the lane for a few hours possibly?

well, what ever you do , do not pick the chelsea lanes, its way too damn expensive

I think we're going with the Port Authority lanes - cheaper and sleazier, just as a bowling alley should be. Does anybody object to this location?

Nope.. no objection...

So it's Aug 1, Port Authority Lanes inside Port Authority at what time?

Citysearch Editorial Review

By Gabrielle Studenmund and Karen Hudes

The most exciting option for killing time while waiting for the next bus.

Spare!
Port Authority's lively, unexpected bowling alley offers thirty lanes, a full bar and pub menu, and league play for serious bowlers. The Moonlight Bowl, a lights-out disco party, takes place on the last Saturday of every month. In the two game rooms, find turbo-charged machines, artillery-heavy gore-fests, a dancing game that rates your steps and even air hockey (but alas, no pinball).

Lucky Strike
The carpeted Leisure Time bar is like an airport lounge taken down several notches. Classic rock and R&B, and the occasional rumble (of bowling balls and trains) set the soundtrack to low-key after-work drinking, where the burgundy-leatherette booths allow plenty of space to gather with friends. Beers on tap, such as Red Hook and New Amsterdam, average around $4. Tasty baskets of fries may be ordered with pizza, burgers, dogs and fried shrimp.

yeah, i just might be able to make that. 8/1, you say?

Unfortunately I have a wedding that day so I probably won't be able to make it... :(

SO many weddings...

Make it late August and I will be there

You have no fucking idea.

what do you consider late august?

21st or 22nd

that would be ideal for me to visit.. I wanna book my flight soon

Yeah I think late august would be better.

i can do either of those days right now...

ok, well... start PMing people...

I think I'm gonna book soon.

I'm in the air on these dates (pending housing and employment), but I don't want to hold up the big event anymore. If it's getting moved and ubertuber is back by August 1st, we may just PM those of you who said you could make it on that day and have a get together anyway.

I was thinking along those lines too.. since there are some people like Paq that are only in NYC before that time.

i am in nyc quite often, and this would be interesting to attend---so if its not next week any more, but the 21st...i could put in an appearance... but probably only the night of the 21st and/or the 22nd.

put me on the list of folk, please. i'll figure things out at my end.

I've booked my flight to LA... August 19th to the 25th.

See you guys there.

YAY, EMPLOYMENT!!! I'll be here.

Okay, so there's going to be a small gathering to go bowling on the 1st? and then another later in the month?

Yeah, I have another wedding on the 21st (don't you dare fucking laugh), but if anybody's up for lunch on the 22nd (Sunday), I could do that.

Fucking laugh we wouldn't dare do -- tease you unmercifully? That's entirely a different story :D

Okay, here's the definitive for 8/1

When: 1:00pm-4:00pm August 1, 2004

Where:
Leisure Time Bowl
625 8th Avenue, 2. floor, Port Authority
