HEAR YE: There will be two parties at my place, and you are invited!
Party #1: Date to be determined, but some time between July 26 and July 29...actually, in all liklehood, there will be a party at my place each night of the convention. You are invited.

Party #2: November 2, 2004 to watch the election returns for good or ill. If electoral victory is achieved, there will be wild screaming and running in the streets. If electoral victory is not achieved, there will be wild screaming and running in the streets. In either case, there will be alcohol flowing like rivers. You are invited.

I live pretty much in downtown Boston, not far from Boylston Street and some very good bars. Be there or be square. I will remind again in a few weeks. If you can come, post in this thread.

Or even a floor? :shrug:

4. Sweet
I'll probably be the whipping boy of some low-level Party operative at the time, though - I'm interning from the 20th through the 29th.

6. I'd love to make the Election night party but....
...I'll probably be in Philadelphia helping to ensure PA is a democratic state. And they have great parties at the Warwick afterwards. That's like the official hotel for the democratic parties!

14. how nice you are willpitt!
I can't say yet, wish I could promise to come to both! I am 3 hours away, very doable- but where in the hell would I park??? I am assuming there would be no hotels avail during the convention and when I was in Boston over Easter a parking spot in your fair city sold for 160,000 dollars!!!! #1 son is looking into college @ Berklee- very exciting indeed! I will know better whether or not I can come when you post again.

24. There are parking garages
and there are bars which, if you drink a beer and get your ticket validated, parking in aforementioned garage is dirt cheap.

I know all the tricks.

never seen you in Donald Duck Underoos, or ANY underoos, for that matter! But if you gentlemen all wear nothing but togas, that will certainly change, won't it? We gals might flood the gates just to see that!:evilgrin:

39. I might take you up on the second one, Will.
Be warned. I'm planning on taking that whole week off to either revel in sweet, sweet victory or to mourn in defeat. Either way, I'd prefer company, so be careful what you wish for, m'man.

and can shoot down any one of those July nights. I don't drink (:smoke:) so I am able to drive back to my sister's (who is back for the summer from Amsterdam) up in Nashua or even back home to CT if need be when the day is done.

i was born in the general hospital at N. Attleboro, and we lived in Foxboro for about four years total. the portuguese families always gave us the strangest looks, we looked so exotic! at other times my siblings were bullied for looking like "portches". oh yes, have you been to N. Attleboro?

60. I'd love to meet the Boston-area DUers
Edited on Wed May-12-04 09:46 AM by WMass astronomer
We're so isolated out here in the sticks! I had to walk four miles in a blizzard yesterday, uphill both ways, to buy granola at the Montague co-op.

/end{barely funny regional humor}

I'd be happy to come to Party #1. Party #2 is a little iffy at this point.

The Mrs. might come too. She's fun.
