Pokémon hunting

Would anyone like to take a walk in a Pokmon-rich environment? Lincoln Park has water and beach and consistently has interesting water, fire, and psychic types. Let's meet at the log benches about halfway down the north parking lot (can walk from the C line bus stop at Rose St. into the park and a tad north on the trail next to the parking lot).

Meetup--Proposed: Boston, MA Busking and beer

I will be shooting a busking video on Newbury Street in Boston at 6:15 on 9/29, and I'd love to have some MeFites as background players! The shoot will be about 20 minutes, and I will get everyone beer or an equivalent non-alcoholic beverage at Bukowskis afterwards.

Pittsburgh Welcome Wagon

Hi All, I've recently moved to Pittsburgh and wanted to test the MeFi waters out here. I'm here for a grad program but other than my little school cohort, I don't know anyone in the city. I'd love to organize a low key meet and greet, maybe a Friday evening at Arsenal Cider House? I'm open to suggestions. Mostly I'd just love to say hi to my new pgh neighbors!

New Salon NYC - Meeting #10

This time out, we'll be chatting about the challenges inherent in "the unalienable right to pursue happiness," whether unhappiness is mostly caused by the gap between who we are and who we want to be, and whether it's really happiness we lack when we feel unhappy. Please join us for drinks and conversation at the next Salon in Brooklyn, on October 27, 2016 at 7:30 PM. (Note new date) [more inside]
