I'm out of town on the 17th. Bummer....

I'll donate a few cases of beer to Matt45 for his service to our great country. If he chooses to share it with you guys, that's his choice!

For a small "pick up" fee I assume!

Heck, I've got a case of Bass in the garage and two 19.25 oz bottles as well. Stop by tonight and they are YOURS!

Matt45: official Thank You for serving DINNER and DRINKS thread

Ok, I read that as thanking Matt45 for serving dinner and drinks. Not a dinner and drinks in order to thank Matt45!

BTW, I'm in either way!

Hey You guys, I know you dont see him much in here, but 161Infantry is in the same group. And I think that as long as these guys have been gone and "dry" we can afford to buy a extra 3 beers for him to.

Sure, and if stefbo, lonegunman, and Unknown1Sailor want to show up too, I'd buy them a brewski. Not sure who is where but I believe they are all serving or have.

And we'll need to do it yet again the middle of next month as a welcome-home and welcome-to-the-club for Sgt_Gumby, C Co 2/162-- he's been in Baghdad a loooong time--

Dang.....thanks guys...I appreciate it.....(I'm actually not "supposed" to be on the internet right now, but....)

I'll post when I return, but I think the dates I'll be on the coast will be in the single digits, low doubles? As soon as I have a better idea of what the plan is (locked down days/nights, ect.) and have interenet access again, I will post it here....Phil, 2WP, Bryan, Paul, Tweak, 1GR,et al- Use my Arfcom Mail, and send me some contact numbers?

I've gotta go back to work, and get my toys put into the toybox now......YeeeeeeeeeeeeeHAAAAAAW!

BiScrun- Thanks man, IM recieved.

HABU- IM Recieved, you're not the problem there, I just had some choice comments for the persons involved with that stateside. I'm SURE they'll get thiers.

Bringing this back up.

It looks like the 12th at a yet undetermined time & location is he deal.

Suggestion from the Tacoma/SouthSound peanut gallery as to a suitable location (No NOT Hooters)

I even know where Hooters is!

I've IM'd a few of y'all with my cell number- Call me late Sun afternoon, or sometime early next week. I have to figure out what the Army plans to do with (to) me and then can go from there.

I can most certianly drag 161Infantry along if y'all so desire......

Thats all good for later, but we need to find a place for next Saturday night. Where Are the Tacoma guys?

I know of a couple of good places in downtown Tacoma we could hit. LMK

I'm never gonna live down the hooters thing.....<<SIGH>>

BUT, I'll put my neck out and reccomend somewhere I've actuall been. The waterfront Ram on ruston way is a decent place to meet up....other places, well, there's TGIFridays, Red Robin, Etc....and then I know of just about every shitty bar in the Tacoma area, let me know if thats the road you wanna look at, and just HOW shitty you want it to be.

Edited first post in this thread. Looks like next Saturday is a NO GO. They are shipping back over the mountains this week. We have 4 days. Tweak will try to supply a where and when tomorrow, or Tuesday. If anyone has suggestions and knows how to get in touch with Tweak, do so. He is meeting up with Matt45 tonight.

thanks for the proxy posting JAFO.

OK, Matt's unit was originally looking at 9-14 days at Lewis but now is looking at being gone by this Friday, the 11th at the latest. Thursday is a better bet.

He expects to be busy with Devon/SNS (sp?) on Tues and it's already Monday, so how does Wednesday the 9th sound?

Dunno about anyone else but those who showed tonight vote for another night in Lacey (Exit 108).

Any place farther north with cheap strong drinks excellent service understanding (ala "you should have seen the look on that fuckers face when the rounds hit HIM!" management not crowded not loud and appreciative of customers?

Posted: 3/7/2005 9:34:14 AM EDT

[#36]

Name a spot so I can try to be there. Lacey is a bit of a drive for me so I will need to do a little planning.

Posted: 3/7/2005 10:08:06 AM EDT

[#37]

Wednesday works for me. No suggestions as far as where unless you want to come north quite a ways.

Posted: 3/7/2005 5:40:26 PM EDT

I'd rather go to Hooters than Lacey.

STFU and drive.

Hooters, Exit 129. Lacey Exit 108.

WAAAAAAH

anybody passing through Tacoma on the way south? you can pick up M and take her with you, I'll be down after work, 2200.

[#41]

What time is Matt45 and crew supposed to be at the establishment? I am NOT positive I can make it. I am not positive what time I'll be leaving work and what time I'd be passing through Tacoma if I do make it. Send me contact info for M and I will call on my way through to see if she's found another ride, or I'll just call you and get the scoop. Of course, I have never been to your place either, so it better be easy to find or I'll be in Raymond.

This is M. Call Tweaks cell. I'll be in Tac with him from 1330 til 2200 unless I get a ride earlier. Some of the guys ( Matt plus whoever he drags up) were talkin' 6ish. Figure 8ish is more real.

Better get a closer ETA than that. Can you imagine me sitting at a bar for two hours by myself?

If 2wP was still near a computer, I'd say call it 7 and I'll meet him there. Maybe he'll pull a rabbit out of the hat and fire up his dialup.
