I'm guessing most will have other plans for new years... Though mel may have you over to the harvard house for new years...... hell, i'm dating one of the harvard girls, i may have enough clout to invite you....sswain, what do you think??
No but I did see Robin Williams, funny actually. (saw him a few times, one humourous time, not from him surprisingly) Alot of the people on SSI are EXTREMELY SNOBISH, very upper class, and I was in the newpaper/magazine store and the owner literally told him to either buy the magazine he was flipping through or leave because if he continued to stand there and flip through it, it would be unsaleable. Robin dropped it on the ground and walked out. I laughed because he could probably sell it BECAUSE Robin Williams had flipped through it.
Lots of names have places on SSI, the name escapes me, but the guy who did Radar from MASH had a place there till he died recently.

Well, since there are two former Winnipeggers who'd like to join in on the revels, let's choose between Tuesday, December 26th to Saturday, December 30th.
Please note with which dates you [b]cannot[/b] make it.
Also, please note with any dietary restrictions and restaurant/pub choices. I'm guessing we only want to go somewhere licensed?
Restaurants we've brought up so far (I'm being indiscriminate!):
Yale Hotel McLaren Hotel Tomi-Tola's The Toad in the Hole King's Head Pub (we'll need members or enough people to make a non-member reservation) A Vietnamese restaurant...I'm sorry I can't remember!
The 28th is my husbands birthday, and I'd rather take him to some nice romantic restaurant - so preferably not the 28th. But if it must be that date we can go for supper early then head out to the pub with you guys.
Evite is a great way to organize a party; all you need are the email addresses of the guests, and then everyone can see who's coming, get email reminders, etc.
Puravida, are you offering to be the party planner? Really if we're just going for food/drinks, all we need is someone to make a reservation. And I'll bring ice packs and crutches for after dinner.
Well, just trying to choose a date. I don't want a label or anything. If this turns into something that requires party planning or organizers, not sure I want to do that!
(laughs) And miss the supper, no way! I guess it's different because I don't have Christmas supper with my family. I spend it with my boyfriend's family. That and New Year's.
