DL Meet Up Tonight

Hello everyone! Sorry for the late notice but I wanted to let everyone know that we will be meeting at our regularly scheduled time and place tonight. When we have five Fridays in a month it throws us hosts in to total confusion! To paraphrase “Clerks” I assure you, we’re open!

This will be our last meeting of the year and the last meeting before the crazy GOP Iowa caucus.

Coming up on January 20th, Drinking Liberally will become Geeks Who Drink Liberally as we have the Geeks Who Drink crew out to emcee a political trivia night. Pete Ashdown, Ross Romero, and Ben McAdams are sponsoring the event for us, and Piper Down will be throwing in some stuff as well. So many thanks to them.

In case you’re not familiar with Geeks Who Drink, you can read about it here: http://www.geekswhodrink.com/97/For%20Players/ To get a feel for what GwD at Piper Down is like, read a recap of yesterday’s trivia night here. Teams are limited to 6 people, so keep that in mind as you think up your dream team of fellow liberal drinkers.

On February 10th we’ll have Salt Lake County Mayoral candidates Ross Romero and Ben McAdams out to talk to us, so keep that night open on your calendar!

We hope to see everyone in the back room at Piper Down (1492 S. State St.) tonight from 6:30-9:30 PM.

Laura, Jeremiah,
Christian, Kelly Jo

Drinking Liberally tomorrow night

It might be a holiday weekend but we’re still planning on meeting this Friday at 6:30 in the back room of the Piper Down. There’s plenty to talk about, like our soldier withdrawal from Iraq! That’s kind of a big deal. There’s also the Bradley Manning trial, Kim Jong-il’s death, and the always entertaining race (to the bottom) for the Republican nomination.
