Dec 14th! 5th Annual Brooklynian Festivus Party!

^ i believe the pole would prefer to be pulled, but what do I know? ;-)

^^:scratch:


Um...so this starts at 6:30 or @7pm when the pole arriveth?



ETA : Actually it doesn't really matter.I'll be there at 6:30.I'm planning on visiting Carniviento (sp?) beforehand anyway.

Hey GFF, let me know if you want company at Carneviento. I could probably get dinner there with you & we can keep each other company at Sharlene's.

UPDATE: Heard back from Sharlene and we are clear to come on Monday. Also at 9pm they are having a triva contest (Start Trek Movie theme -for you nerds) so this could be lots of fun!

EM! Hook me up on a link to watch the new Trek movie online, so I can prepare!

Sure. If anyone else wants to join, feel free.

I'm gonna walk straight to Carneviento , order , and then walk the food over to Sharlene's. I'll be in Carneviento ordering at approx. 6:30pm.

Carneviento at 6:30pm take out to Sharlene's

I know not of this carneviento. Is it all meat?
Way way hung from holiday party last night. Will do best. To make it.

^^ Carneviento is just a nickname made up by Brooklynians.

The real name of the place is El Gran Castillo De Jagua.

ETA: Menu : http://www.menupages.com/restaurants/el-gran-castillo-de-jagua/menu

I have to work to about 8-8:30, but I will try to make it. Hopefully I will be able to get out sooner. Sorry I will miss the arrival of the pole. I look forward to meeting some of you tomorrow night!

MOD NOTE: For full disclosure Polecat is an NYU journalist. The moderators and Admins all agree it's best to put that out there.

Happy festivus all!

Mrs. Why and I will likely join you around 7. We might join you guys at Carneviento first if the the stars align.

Look for the awesome couple with a pole on wheels.

Are we gonna be studied and written about? What's up?

ETA: I'm not asking like it's a good thing. I'm really not down with it. Peace.

Mon-Sun: 7am-11pm

True ... I am a grad student in journalism at NYU. I'm working on a piece for a class about non-traditional holiday celebrations, such as Festivus. Nothing I write about will be published as it's just a class assignment. I really just plan on hanging out if that's cool with everybody. I don't even need anybody's name if they don't want to tell me it.

Didn't intend for it to look like I was hiding that information. I thought Mamacita (the Mod I messaged a few weeks ago) would tell anybody who showed up anyways. And I planned on disclosing that information as well to whomever I talked with.

Plus, I will need a good break after a long Monday and working on some finals this weekend!

Take care

Oh, and if anybody has any questions/comments/drink requests, feel free to message me.
