| OK, I think I'm ready for Round 2. I need to pick a date in March as February turned out to be booked.
I think we're going to limit the headcount to maximum of 10, 8 would be even better. First reserved spots are for Travel Rep & Capitol Kat (and spouses). Although I had planned a repeat of the January menu, I think we're going to try to do something even better.
I can't do March 11, that leaves open March 4 (maybe too soon), March 18, and March 25. So let's hear it on dates. | | |

| | I want to reserve a slot. Good thing it isn't March 11, as that is the wife's birthday. | | | |

| | I'll get back to you-- Joyce's BD is also on 3/9 so the 11th was probably bad as I have to do something for her BD here in town. | | | |

| Corkage...
Thanks for the invite. Mrs. T and I are available either March 18 or 25 as I'm out of town on the 4th and the 11th. We'll be happy to join you and Nicole...

| | I would love to attend - and have been looking foreward to it since missing january...but believe it or not I have another party already schedules for each date listed...March 4 is for a high school friend who is returning (only for 1 month) from Iraq, March 18 is when we are planning to have my eldests Birthday (though perhaps that one could change or become just a daytime event) and March 24 is a 50th (?) birthday party for a coworker and good friend...so it goes...but I really would love to join you guys sometime...but who knows maybe I could swing it for march 18...depending... | | | |

| | Vince-- the 25th is the best date for us. The 18th is second but for us Irish the day after St. Paddy's is sometimes rocky..Erin gaugh Bragh | | | |

| Of course, you will never know whether you have pulled that feat off, which I doubt is possible, unless you get a few unbiased attendees that attended the prior dinner to judge! This will be an amazing thing even if it just comes close to the January event.
I was going to try for a March dinner at my house. That will now be April! I've got a good idea for a theme I think. | | | |

Serisously if I drink on more Littorai syrah or 85 Caymus and eat one more venison dish I'll probably puke! Oh well, it's a risk I'm willing to take.  | | | "It's better to have your enemies inside the tent pissing out, then outside the tent pissing in." -- Lyndon Johnson | |

| | Apparently I am the only one. If forced to attend I am thinking of Thai carry out. Oh, and Littorai makes Pinot. | | | |

Johnnyis the Chef Boyardee (what did you think the "B" stands for in "JohnnyB"?). Johnny has requested Thai carry-out at the next dinner, we'll just re-plate it in the kitchen. | | | |

| | So is the theme to see how many different Gewurztraminers (sp?) we can come up with to go with the Thai food? That would be a new one.... | | | |
