HLP Boston, Tuesday January 19th
Location: Jacob Wirth
Time: 6-ish
Hey everyone.
I'm going to be in Hopkinton, MA on business sometime in January (my employers don't know exactly when yet.) Hippo and Inquisitor are up for a meeting in Boston at that time. Is anyone else game?
I'll let you know when it's happening as soon as I find out!
-
I am around, generally. Work downtown near South Station.
-
Too far!
-
OK, update: it will be sometime during the week of January 4-8, so let's plan on either Sunday January 3 or Friday January 8. I don't know exactly when or for how long I'll be there but that's some more info anyway.

Ever get a "Whitey Bulger" from Figaro's?
-
Rian and I are going to just miss the window.
-
Not on this short notice.

I have not, but now I am curious, I may have just made my lunch plans.

I used to go there when I was onsite at a client that operated out of South Street. They had a couple items available every day but most of the sandwiches rotate on a daily schedule. If I recall correctly Whitey Bulgers where available on Thursdays. Basically its a buffalo chicken, lettuce, bacon, cheese and ranch in a wrap. However, it's been about a year so Figaro's scheduling might have changed, though I would assume they still make Whiteys since they where very popular.

Its cold and crappy here today, but I may walk over there if I can remember where it is :)

i'm shipping up to boston

Love that song.
-
Nice, though I've been partial to THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzF0hHb7xMc) as well.
-
I live in NY, so I might be able to come. Not that I'm terribly active on HLP, but I can't seem to get any of my RL friends to like FS2... :doubt:
Batoots it's a shame I won't get to see ya there.
-
'Tis.
-
Blar.
Apparently I will NOT be in Boston the first week of January. However, it will happen in January and now I’m anticipating the week of January 18th, 2010. Please don't hold me to this as my boss is still in negotiations.
-
It's official--I will be arriving in Boston airport at 7:45 PM on Monday, January 18. I will be leaving Wednesday afternoon, at 4:15.
Obviously this isn't great for a meeting in Boston. However, I will have time free on Tuesday afternoon, after 4 PM. I don't know whether our hotel is in Boston, or in Hopkinton (30 miles to the west) but there's sufficient time there that I can figure something out. Though if anyone else has transportation and wants to pick me up or meet where I am, we can do that. :) Anyone know of a good place?

I can get that day off, or at least the evening.
-
I usually fence on Tuesday nights at 7 or 7:30. I can meet for a quick drink though. I work within sight of South Station and usually do not have a car, so am stuck with walking.
-
I'll have a rental, I can pick you up. We still need a locale, though, and a definite time--are you available before 7? If so, when?
-
I won't be available, that said when I worked with a client down on South Street we would occasionally go to Jacob Wirth up near Tufts. Its a pretty cool German bar and its within walking distance of South Station. Course you could always go to the Combat Zone :P

That looks great!
Any objections? And when should we meet there? As I've said, I'm available after 5:00 or so.
-
The 19th won''t work for me. I have classes. I'm open to HLP Boston, Providence (where I am right now), or NYC.
-
Someone unstuck my thread... :(
-
Wow, small world. I haven't been on this site in ages and haven't played the game in years, but just last night my subconscious decided to dream in FS2, complete with green targeting boxes and everything.. I'm posting in this thread because I can't find the "you know you've played FS2 too long when..." thread, plus I live in Cambridge.
-
You should check out some of the sweet user-made campaigns!
-
The last user-made campaign I finished was ST:R, and I never got beyond the first few missions of Procyon Insurgency, so I have a huge backlog to work through. Soon as I get a computer that has more than an integrated Intel graphics chip, I'll take a stab at the new campaigns.
-
Transcend, Blue Planet, Windmills. Best of what you're missing if you've played Derelict and ST:R.
Homesick, Sync, Ancient-Shivan War are very decent as well.
-
K, I'm flying out in the morning.
Are we still on for this?! Someone say yes.
-
i'm 50/50, need to find out exactly what i'm supposed to be doing that night and then see if its something i can reschedule easily
-
I sadly have a late conference call and need to be in Waltham by 7 :(
-
i'll be there.
-
Bring a camera. :)
-
Cancelled due to inclement weather and poor attendance. :(
Unstick this please.
-
I was actually not even downtown at all yesterday, had a thing in Waltham in the morning so just stayed up there :(
That and the whole election thing made my brain hurt.
