@Luckyguy will be in the SF Bay Area in mid February. We will at Jupiter Brewing on Shattuck in Berkeley, at 6:30 p.m. on February 16.
Please let us know if you can make it so we grab a big enough table.

I hope to be there, probably with my celebrity wife in tow.
Jupter can get really busy. There are a lot of tables, but it’s often hard to find one if there is an event of one kind or another.
I’ll be there.
You’ll recognize me in an instant. I’ll be the guy with the ear to ear grin – and no prostate. :-)
@chyna What? That’s not a good enough description? :-)
“Umm… Pardon me sir, but do you have a….? ”
It sounds so fun, wish Stanley was still here so he could go.
@filmfann Celebrity wife? Well now we need pictures! Ha!
Stanley’s back with a new account, but attending the meet up might not be a High Priority for him. ;)
@janbb What a cool article!! :)
@Brian1946 Really?! Wonder why he hasn’t said hello. I’ve missed him. Tell him will you?

This is on Wednesday? That makes it more difficult, but I’ll try.
Awesome. Let us now all the details after the meet up. I wish I could be there.
I am so looking froward to this! :-)
Whoa that’s awesome, have fun guys.
Is the name we give for the restaurant table Fluther? I would like to find it without checking prostates…
PROSTATES TABLE FOR 5.
PROSTATES TABLE FOR 5.
I might print a small picture of my avatar, and use it as a button. It’s all about the flair.
@filmfann I sent you a PM and a facebook message with my phone number. I will have a Hawaiian shirt on….
I hope it will be warm enough got Hawaiian shirts.
I’ll be wearing a light blue, long sleeve dress shirt and jeans. And I’ll have a black fleece hoodie with me. Maybe I’ll take a hat with me if it’s cold.
I totally missed this. So how did the meeting go?
Kind of in a funk, guys. :/
Not sure if I’m up for socializing.
Have a great time tonight!
@raum oh, so it’s not time yet? I’m messing up the time zone again :P
It’s 7:56am on Wednesday here. I think they’re meeting up later today.
We are meeting this evening! Shake it off @raum, some pizza will put you right!
@raum: Opportunities for meetups with other Jellies are few and far between…..
Sorry I’m going to miss it. I can’t drive yet and I’m not up for taking BART.
@Caravanfan Hope you’ll be able to make the March 18th one!
Might drop by to say hello if I can unfunkify.
Go @raum! You may never get a chance to see @luckyguy ever again since he lives in NY.
@filmfann Great!
Come on @raum! There will never be a better time to do it!
The more the merrier!
Ah, I have such fond memories of dropping out of UC Berkeley, and my niece being rejected by Boalt. ;)
I spent more time at the Vietnam Day Committee table than I did in class.
My poor niece had to settle for Harvard. ;(
Apparently the Brewery is within walking distance of Sather Gate.
Go @raum, GO! @Mimishu1995 and I will freeze your counting thread before it reaches your birth year. ;p
@raum: I hope you go. Perhaps hanging with some nice Jellies will unfunkify you.
Take pics, have fun!! #jealous
@Brian1946 It’s a pretty long walk. It’s also across the street from BART.
I’m on my way! If I’m too early I’ll sightsee and maybe find a geocache.
I’m here – and found one cache.
Jeans, light blue shirt, black hoodie, carrying a
dark green hat, and wearing Cars 3 Lightning McQueen undies. :-)
Just trying to make it as easy as possible. :-)
I’m pretty sure @filmfann is not checking underwear. But if he is, yours will be noticeable!
NOT TMI if @LuckyGuy is wearimg his “undies” on the outside, which he did during our “raunchy view” 3 months ago! ;-o
We met successfully!, and @raum rallied and joined us! Great time was had by all, we are looking forward to next months gathering with @janbb and also looking forward in a few years to the eclipse gathering in upstate NY at @LuckyGuy‘s place!
We are Barting back to Concord. Had a wonderful visit with @zenvelo, @raum, and @LuckyGuy.
Afterwards, I watched @LuckyGuy dancing a jig on the Bart station platform.
Alright, alright…you guys were totally right. Meeting up tonight totally did help my funk.
Really glad I got to meet @zenvelo (in his hawaiian shirt), @filmfann (with his avatar picture), the lovely Mrs. Filmfann (and pictures of her amazing quilts)…and this other really nice guy who may or may not have been @LuckyGuy (since I did not check his prostate to confirm).~
It was a lot of fun! And despite me being entirely antisocial, I’m looking forward to doing it again in March. :)
Only regret is not seeing (possibly) LuckyGuy dancing a jig. :P
Oh! And I had to chuckle that @filmfann thought I was going to pull an Irish goodbye when I had to use the restroom.
Admittedly in my MO. ;)
Why can’t I teleport? :’(
Sounds like a good time was had by all!
Fabulous. So glad you guys had a great time.
Aw, I’m so happy you guys met up. Wish I could have been there!
I wanna see Lucky’s underpants.
That sure was fun! And now I can put faces and voice to the avatars. I find it so interesting that we can immediately start talking and letting the conversation flow. Special. Thank you all for showing up!
Just to set the record straight, I wasn’t just “dancing a jig.” It was a couple of steps of Shuffle Dance that I finally figured out.
If I recall, a certain penguin wanted me to post a video as proof which I will not do. But @filmfann is a witness and I know you all trust him!
~What @Brian1946 neglected to mention where we wore our outside undies. Since we were seated at a table in a restaurant we wore them on our heads to make it easier to find each other. :-)
@LuckyGuy The undies on the heads were really helpful!
Way less awkward than telling the host “I think there’s four or five of them? I don’t know what they look like. One of them mighty be wearing a Hawaiian shirt?”~
@raum Or “could you check prostates? One of them is traveling without his.”
Ha! Does Jupiter have a bouncer? Probably not. At least it would have been gentle if they had kicked me out for suggesting that.
The underwear on the head thing was amusing for a minute, but next time I’ll remember to bring my facemask.
@Caravanfan Great party hat for the meet-up !
Is that what you’ll wear to the next one ??
