NOT!

i wanna hear you SCREAM!!!!

Normal people go to the Caribbean or Hawaii or even Florida. No, for my Winter Warm Weather excursion, I have to go to Southern California (as posted by Orhan)...

So it's not enough that you have earthquakes and wildfires, apparently you have to worry about spontaneous combustion from manure piles too.....

the kid in 'To' is a badass, vado.

i thought gas lite was it?!

i've been to good hurt...ten dollars cover charge to see some shitty unknown band...pool table whatever...oh yeah bartenders showing massive cleavage as mentioned by heterarchy...

forget the standard in downtown, like what garpike mentioned...you gotta wear leather pants and silk shirts to get in...high class type shit...

liquid kitty...don't know much about it except that my structures teacher recommended it and he use to sport a liquid kitty shirt...

i want to go to sci-arcs friday's at 5 but i work and coming from the westside and wont make it there(with traffic) til 8 or so...dub keezy...if you and myriam are gonna go, have dot, appleseed, something over there, steven fuchs give you a tour...i remember dot saying that he worked in the library...the library has access to the rooftop where you can take cool pictures of l.a....otherwise i wont be there til 8 or so...i'll show you the holes on the ground where lebbeus did his installation...there's drinks there in the meantime and you and myriam can meet people...

other suggestions...

we can go roll at santa monica bowling alley...nihilists...that's were they filmed it right?

i'll go where ever...

oh shit, i thought that sci-arc thing was saturday at 7. or something. I'm not quite sure what is up with that. i want to see the school, though, if possible.

13th a friday... dammm i'm just realizing that's friday the 13th...well theres always drinks there on friday...fridays at 5...and it being friday the 13th, i'm guessing it'll be wild...?????i don't know...

oops...13th is a sat...sorry...

OK, now I'm all confused (re: Thread Central last night, my head still hurts). I thought the Sci-Arc thing was on Saturday, too? Who knows this?

Also, Friday is the 12th. Saturday the 13th.

Santa Monica bowling alley is only open until 2 am, according to the web site. What fun is that?

I looked on the SCIArc calendar, and they don't even show anything happening this friday. Where did you people hear about this?

you can all come over to my place and get drunk

Sweet!

Why don't we do this: meet and greet at Gas Lite at like 8 (move it up from 9, especially if the Sci-Arc thing isn't happening?) and then if we want to move on to someplace else eventually we can. Easier said than done, I know, but then at least we have a collection point and can carpool or share cabs, etc....

All in favor?

Right O DUB-K....Im down!

Aye

Well hot bleep if LA isn't the place to be this weekend!!!

I'm so sad I'm not going to be there.

+ u know LIB Bell....if you are here this weekend, something of yours might burn down too!!

but too bad you can't break free from your bleeping city to join us!

heterarchy, I haven't ben to Saints and SInners yet. I was theer a few tiems when it was the local dive Sarnas. It is down the street from me.

Also on Venice Blvd is Carbon. It's teeny. Like a trailer. But nice.

Good Hurt's cool. My band played there a few times. No welcome to the Jungle, though.

Cool, lb! That place is cool - CFLUI that is. And so is the Museum of Jurassic Technology next door. We should go there!

wondERK I am down. We can start at Gas Lite, and go from there, and if the crowd doesn't budge, at least we'll be at a bar.

I'm there.

Oops, CLUI, not CFLUI.

Woo hoo for Gas Lite. And a bigger Woo hoo for beer!

haha garpike.

so then plans are final eh?
lets make sure everyone is on board!! 8ish right?

Do we need to wear 'architecture sucks' t's, or should we be searching the old 'what to archinecters look like' thread to figure out who we're looking for?

HAHA I think that's a sweet idea (although I may have to switch it up with one of my other archinect Ts - I seem to have misplaced my architecture sucks one.....dammit)

i will be the guy in the yellow elephant thong...

The sci-arc thing on friday is friday's at 5. A great way to start the evening. Alcohol will be provided.

I'm not a big fan of Gas Lite. The east side has more character than the west.

wait, I thought that was the all elusive Garwondler wearing that elephant thong???

and you aint wearing that thong in my car mdler unless you bring some plastic coverings!

Actually I don't relish the idea of wearing my 'architecture sucks' t out on the town.

Well, since I'll be meeting WonderK earlier that day, we'll be able to find each other at least.

We are still talking about Saturday night, right? 8 pm it is then....

yes, rationalist and I will know each other. So that's two in a group. Plus I will have a redhead with me, and potentially one other brunette and a 40-ish guy (my friend's roommates). I'm not sure if they are coming or not though. But I also know mdler, so that's 4 at least.

The rest of you, I honestly don't know who I'm looking for, so you'll have to find us....I think we're going to have big group though. So we shouldn't be too hard to find!

Just in case you need a refresher: moi

WonderK

I will recognize you

You know me, wondERK!

I'm the one with no nose!

Beauty is the eyes of the Beholder

mdler and I will be the ones holding the empty bottle of Jack. Just wake us up.

no jack just beers...wake you up?...no crashing and burning!!!...are we planning on losing our brains completely?....nothing against it because i'm down with losing brain...don't know about losing my brain at a bar though...

i'll see you guys at gas lite...i'll throw horns \m/...once i spot you guys...

I'm so envious - you guys are going to have so much fun! Who will be willing to write it up as a front-page feature?

With TONS of photos, of course! I want all those phone-cams to be full!

There will be no sleeping! Everyone has plenty of time to get rested up by sleeping in on Saturday morning. I, of course, will have some difficulty sleeping past 8:30 so I'll just have to nap Saturday afternoon.

Or now. Gosh I'd like a nap now....

aw, have fun. i really wanted to come.

dammson- I wasn't planning on losing my brain completely, as there's the whole driving home issue. In this town if you take a cab, you might come back in the morning to find your car's been towed or something!

well supposedly not with the new laws in place rationalist (the law that went into effect this new year - about towing without notifying owners of establishments frist) that could save you some time, but inevitably, yes you might find your car at the impound lot.

oooh...so we can bring cameras and catch all the crazyness going on eh? I know I will bring mine Liberty Bell!

let's sketch each other...

do stick figures count?

I'm trying to figure out travel arrangements. I think I will have to take the train home Sunday. Have you seen Union Station yet WonderK?

Only in Washington, DC.....

Did you see that Beckham is coming to the LA Galaxy? That will officially count in the "pro" column on my list of reasons to move to LA....

OK Saturday 8pm-ish? Can someone text my phone the final rendezvous point sometime on Sat? I'll try to sway the boat in that direction.

wait, is this thing friday or saturday?

Saturday. Always been Saturday. The only thing there was ever any debate on was the SCI-Arc thing, which is apparently Friday.

So, in conclusion:


Friday, 5 pm, SCI-Arc

Saturday, 8 pm, Gas Lite

But friday is just you and rationalist right? Wonder??

and then Sat is for the entire bunch???

I gather that if we want we can also show up to the SciArc thing, yes?

the only thing that's just me and WK is some USC stuff before the SCIArc thing. Of course, anybody and everybody is welcome at the SCIArc thing.

What IS the SCIArc thing exactly though? A lecture, an exhibit, a random party that we'll be intruding upon? Not shirking on going, just curious.
