Tell ya what...we're doing a Brokie Brunch in NYC

[wtbgirl]

fyi on Cowgirl --- Actually you can get the back room at Cowgirl for private use (unless the name recently changed the full name is Cowgirl Hall of Fame).  Even though it is a "back room" it has windows and light and door to the street.  My friend had her daughter's birthday party in there.   No idea of the cost, but I can find out.  Cowgirl Hall of Fame also has big tables throughout the restaurant for large groups.

Amy,

Great minds. I called and found out that: the adjacent same-owner restaurant, 'BAR-K,' a nominal 40-person space, is available for private parties during the day (we would have to be out by 4pm as they start servin' dinner at 5pm;

The Party Person at Cowgirl/Bar-K is Devra deDeaux, she will next be in on Tuesday at 11am (she is there til 7pm), phone 212-633-1133;

They still have April 29 open.

One can also reserve a lounge, a back room and a bar; take a look, here's the website party page: http://cowgirlnyc.com/parties.html

Time: 16 and 9!

(Sorry Elle--the only TV's at the Bar--although a couple scenes would take on added meaning and poignance when seen in a bar, no?)

Time: 17 and 2!

Anyone have a spare Chicago-to-New York plane ticket lying around?

[Meryl]

Wow, a lot has happened since I last checked in! 

I'll leave instructions to have my ashes sent over: you can pour out a little Old Rose in front of my Tin Can. (Leave at curbside afterwards.)

John, I want to marry your sense of humor 

The date is firm!  If the Army gets one of us, there's still a handful left to carry on.  Go for it, Elle. 

I agree that Cowgirl Hall of Fame seems the best choice.  Surf, what I like about it is that it's one of a kind rather than a chain, and my Time Out New York restaurant guide gives it a red star, which means they think it's ver' good.  I checked out their lounge when I was there, and though it's small, it would be a great place to have drinks.  Couches line the walls, and it has a homey feel.

John or Amy, would you be up for calling them on Tuesday?  It looks like we've got nine for sure, so maybe go for a dozen or so people?  Darn it, hpie and Courtney, I wish you could come! 

As for watching the DVD somewhere, I have faith that we'll work it out.  I have too much going on that week to feel confident offering my place as an option.  But this is New York, after all, and maybe we could even rent a private screening room somewhere.

Hell it wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't still playing at the AMC Empire 25 on 42nd street by then.  After all, they have twenty five screens to fill.

Don't know if I will be making it yet....

[Meryl]

Don't know if I will be making it yet....

Oh, no!  I sure hope you can.....

You might be right about the AMC, come to think of it.

[newyearsday]

You better make it surf!!! Or we'll be callin you Ennis for bailing on us!!

I vote for going to the place where we can mingle the most. Cowgirl and Bar-K seem oK to me. but I haven't researched either of them. I really want to do that shopping excursion to the Western wear store!

Brokie Broncho, here we come!

Hey all,

Glad people want to make it--or something--happen. In re: making arrangements, Spirit is willing, but Flesh is weak--I'm off to the doctor as soon as I arrange things on my desk so things aren't a complete disaster here--I have a feeling I won't be able to check in here later today, hope I will tomorrow--waves feebly--

off ta get sawboned--
 

[Meryl]

Poor John, feel better soon!  *Offers a dose of Ma Twist's Cherry Tonic and a warm blanket*

[Jeff Wrangler]

Hope you're feeling better soon, John!

(Wrings hands with worry. ...)
