This weekend is New York Comic Con! Jim won't be in attendance this year, unfortunately, but we Butcher fans can still enjoy an evening of wild tomfoolery in his absence! Allow me to introduce McAnally's '09: a casual dinner for Jim-Butcher.com forum members and our friends on Friday night. Who would be interested in joining the madness? RSVP here. Also, I welcome suggestions for where we should eat. Somewhere within easy walking distance of the Javitz Center (34th and 11th), certainly, and where loud, raucous guffaws will not be frowned upon.  Come join the fun! It'll be a great opportunity to meet your fellow forumites face to face. And who knows? Maybe some industrious little gnome will even break out the first sample chapter of Turn Coat four days in advance. EDIT: The event will be held at Brother Jimmy's BBQ, Friday night at 8:30. You must RSVP in this thread or here before noon EST on Friday to be guaranteed a seat. Attending: Priscilla Shecky Sue Craig IIIMarconeIII Matthew Merback Lauren The Dabel Brothers crew (6 or 7) Victoria Reyes and Adam Arnett |

Wish I could make it, but I've got prior plans. There's a nice bar and grill called McHale's on 8th Ave off of W.47th Street that kind of reminds me of MacAnally's, and which can handle casual groups. When I was writing fiction, I wrote a series of shorts set in and around it, modeled on Arthur C. Clarke's Tales From The White Hart, just because I liked the ambience. http://local.yahoo.com/info-32670521-mchale-s-new-york |

I'll be there. No bells on; we don't want to frighten the natives. Sue & I are in the process of researching restaurants and/or watering holes in the vicinity.

Here's something interesting (never been there, but it seems to be pretty appreciated): http://www.daisymaysbbq.com/news.htmlPlus, it's really not far to the Times Square area (5-10 minute walk, easily), and there's lots of nifty stuff around there. |

One of my bestest friends, Scott will be attending. Can you guys kidnap him, hold him hostage for dinner and then tell him that Elle commanded it so?

He's welcome to join us, if you can arrange the brute squad for the kidnapping. |

Well, Lou Faregno is going to be there. Though Scott hates Lou Faregno. He claims that someday, he's going to punch the Hulk in the face.
