It's past time again folks, we need to get together and find out what's been happening. I hereby open the floor to venue/date suggestions.
El Jaripeo

I'd consider coming in from Fort Wayne again. Weekends will be better for me, mostly. Got nuthin' on venue recommendations, but I'm not terribly picky as long as they've got decent beer on tap.

Either (or all) of the few weekends after Labor Day would suit me just fine. As for a venue, are there any Mexican restaurants in Indy with decent beer on tap, which would accommodate both pjern and valkyryn? I'm coming up short.

I'm a fan of the food at El Jaripeo, which was a Mom and Pop Mexican restaurant on the far East side, and reasonable priced, as well. I find their new location (in an ex carpet store) a little noisy and sports-bar-ish for my taste, though. They also have a location on US-31 in Southport, which would be convenient for anyone coming from down thataways, but I've not been to that one.

Since I don't drink beer, I can't help us on that topic. I think Dos Equus XX means something like "The piss of two horses", right?

I'm prepared to substitute excellent Mexican food for excellent beer. I still don't have any recommendations though.
I can do either the east side or Southport.

I won't be able to join you but that won't stop me from recommending places! I haven't been here but have heard good things about papa roux from a friend. As for Mexican, La Hacienda is pretty decent and they have quite a few locations in Indy.

September 18th is bad for me. I think I'm pretty open for the rest of the month though. Southport would be freaking awesome for me but I'm not opposed to going North or East or whatever.

Southport works for me, as well. 10th or the 17 for possible Friday Eve dates, 11th or 25th for Saturday dates, and or 12th and 19th for Sundays. Preferences, anyone?

Any of those dates work for me, but I'd prefer Saturday or Sunday over Friday evening. As for location, I'm neutral. I can travel to the four corners of Indianapolis.

I'd prefer a Sunday as well, I think. Can we call this for September 12th, at 6 PM, at El Jaripeo?

Sunday at 6pm is fine by me.

Fine with me, too. How about our neighbours to the north? futz and valkryn?

In the absence of any other input, I'll set it up then.

Sorry guys, been away from MeFi for a few days. I don't think the 12th is going to work for me. Catch you next time?

I've got to go deal with a plumbing emergency at my mother's house. Hopefully I will make it to the meet up but I have my doubts.

Eep! The restaurant has closed! We've reconvened at the Grand Traverse Pie Company, at the corner of US31 and Stop 11 Rd.
