L.A.-Area Moron Meetup Scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 20
— Gabriel Malor

Above the Post Update: Wow. Awful timing for a frivolous post. Just saw Ace's post directly below. Be sure to scroll down. My prayers go out for the dead, their families, and everyone at the university.

Original Post:

Mark your calendars, Los Angeles-area readers. Several of you have risen to my challenge that San Francisco was easier to mobilize and demanded an opportunity to prove that L.A. morons are just as capable of getting together to drink as San Fran nancy-morons.

To that end, we will have a Moron Meetup the evening of Saturday, February 20 in Hollywood. The place has $6 valet or street parking nearby.

As per our usual practice, you can get the time and location via email. Long-time reader h2u has offered to handle that part of the organizing. You can reach him at "HebrewToYou" at google-mail. (Email addy not spelled out in a probably-vain attempt to cut down on spam. Put the name in quotes with "@gmail.com".)

Hope to see you there!

Update: Hey, apparently there are Facebook and Yahoo and Google group sites set up for this kind of thing. I don't know about that stuff, so if you're on one of those groups, you might mention this post on there. Thanks!

2 Hey, we've already done this a few times out here in LA. It shouldn't be a problem.

4 A moron meet-up post right after a post on mass murder seems about right.

5 Well there'll never be a moron meetup in Salt Lake City, because I believe I'm the only moron in the entir State of Utah. FML.

7 Dammit! Why is the 20th so busy? I was invited to a birthday party and we're celebrating my dad's birthday that same night. And now this. So I have to miss an LA moron meetup.

8 You can't spell Moron without an "L" and an "A"

If this hasn't yet (because Im too lazy to look) make sure to post it on the Facebook site as well, there has been talk of a Socal meetup for a few weeks now.

11 I'm a moron, not in LA but close enough to go..Fullerton. If I could only figure out the dastardly cryptic email address. So far I've tried three addys and am going to two swingers parties and something about 420??

13 Dangity. I'm in LA that weekend, but can't attend. Chug some Valu-Rite for me.

Posted by: iowahawk at February 12, 2010 04:21 PM (veL4N)

14 Dammit. I'll be in Waxahachie and Dallas then.

I think that this'll be the third or fourth SoCal moron meet that I got burned out of attending. Working for a living sucks.

I put the name in quotes and it doesn't like it.

19 I suppose a NE Ohio Moron meetup is too much to ask for?

20 I am ready for a Memphis Moron Meetup anytime someone wants to have one.  I'll even buy a round.

21 Bummer, Gabe -- out in LA now working on my Sissy's home in Sunland...would've loved to have met up with some LA area morons! Roger Wilco -- I'm a NEOhioan...let's try to get a meet up going!

The next meetup is in my game room.  Me.  Me.  Me.  Me.  Me.

Me.

I might be a great, great, um, great man, but I'm lonely.  It's hard being great.  Great, but lonely enough to use this blog.

27 Too Far Away!

I think I'm going to go around the next to all the meetup sites with meetups far away from me and complain they they're too far away.

Because I'm a giver.

I'd ask if there were any norcal meets, but it's not like I'm going to remember to check the thread later.

I have some very long-time friends that live up there. What side of the 210 is your sister on? I dearly hope you aren't up there because she got burned out or washed out.

31 El Lay can turn out as long as there is enough Value Rite.

32 Ugh- it figures you guys would hold it on this moron's birthday.  One of these days i want to make it to one of these.

33 Damn. I have to go to Boston that wknd. Wish I could be there.

Posted by: Bryan at February 13, 2010 12:41 AM (j0OLD)

34 R Wilco -- Yes!!! Would you start a thread in the Y Groups page?...I'm back in CLE on the 15th and will check in then.

Posted by: billygoat at February 13, 2010 09:34 AM (thjrI)

35 At last. A reason to wear my black socks and Bermuda shorts.

Posted by: sifty at February 13, 2010 11:04 AM (YiL90)

36 So where is it going to be? I'm a long time lurker but live in Hollywood, so I'm likely in stumbling distance of the meetup.

37 CPAC weekend!! I'm going to be on the other coast.

Posted by: Bill H at February 13, 2010 01:17 AM (q8CmE) Didn't see your post, Bill -- sorry. Sis is on the N side of 210 (Foothill exit) ~ a mile from this exit. And no, thankfully for them no damage from the fires...really close to their place though...lots of claims in their area for smoke damage. Their place is a work in process...will be back out in March to do more stuff! Love it here in the Winter time!!!
