UP|Providence Holiday Gathering

there should be plenty of on street parking over there at 530 or so. anyone who pays to park will have to buy drinks for everyone who finds on street parking, or who walk.

[brick]

the best and easiest bet (although it requires a horrific 1/2 mile walk!) is to park in the Grant's Block space, which should be available. There is no show at PPAC tomorrow night so with the stores closed (AHEM!!) on Westminster I don't imagine the place will fill up.

Parking on Weybosset should also be possible at that hour, as well as Pine.

If you guys can't find somewhere to park in this neighborhood...

There is lots of on-street parking around here. Try Friendship, Clifford, Pine, even Dorrance. If all else fails, South Water usually has spots, but ... seriously?

[Recchia]

They don't call it the parking lot district for nothing!

[dgreco]

still need that DD jim

[brick]

the object is to park free... i don't pay for parking downtown. ever. unless i have to put in a couple quarters for the meter.

[runawayjim]

You can catch the 55 bus at PC at 5:08 and be in Kennedy Plaza and 5:25 (roughly). Might be more conducive to the drinking as well...

[jencoleslaw]

every time you guys type DD i always think "dunkin' donuts"

[jencoleslaw]

if dunkin donuts was smart, they'd copyright, or trademark "Dunkin' Driver" and do a whole campaign around how the designated driver has more fun than the drunk guys...

i really should work in advertisement.

[Recchia]

Being a dunkin driver is just as dangerous as drunken driving, I ran off the road one time while trying to scarf down a chocolate frosted coffee roll. Damn it was good though...

[dgreco]

i thought the same thing... generally i don't use a drunken designated driver.

[runawayjim]

Just pm me or something, because I am still about 90% sure I am going.

[jencoleslaw]

tried to pm you, but you've got it disabled or full.

anyways, i've got a ride back if the fiancee ditches me for homework.

[brick]

or if she finds out that you to referred finding loose women on craigslist.

[jencoleslaw]

how would that possible every happen

[runawayjim]

oh yeah, Jim, my drink of choice these days is absolut citron and soda with a touch of cranberry.

[dgreco]

sounds like something a friend of mine drank... he smoked cigarettes every 5 minutes and would drink 3 or 4 great ones from dunkin' a day. but when he drank, it would order "raspberry stoli with sprite and a spash of cranberry juice". we all made fun of him when we ordered our manly drinks.

[runawayjim]

the best mixed drink is a grateful dead

[dgreco]

amazingly enough, i've never had a grateful dead. although i have heard they are really good. i generally just drink beer though.

[runawayjim]

It has that "sugary" taste so if you don't like that you may not like the drink, but you should try it out. It is basically a long island ice tea, but with chambord.

[jencoleslaw]

i have found that the sugar kicks my a** more than the alcohol, so i've been moving away from juices and sodas and into seltzers and straight up.
