So are we going to make this a lunch also? To my knowledge, there are BBQ grills there... so we can do lunch; I am under the impression that we are?
10:00am meeting time, correct?

If we are going to do a lunch, them I'm thinking we'll need someone (or 2, 3) for utensils, snacks (chips, crackers, etc), entree, and desserts (brownies, cookies, etc).
Would the members like to inform us of what they will be bringing? I will also double-check just to confirm that there are BBG grills (which I'm sure there are).

John, maybe we can meet there first, a little early, and set up? Let me know.

I can't wait! :) :D

Hi David:

I was in the hospital for a week, and missed or forgot a lot of threads. What is the date and location for the GTG?

I have a lot of paper plates and plastic ware that I can bring, and can get there early to help set up.

yes indeed when is it? need to know so I can go. :)

Alon

The GTG is for August the 10th, I guess at around 10 a.m.

We can either BBQ, bring food already cooked, or do both.

If we BBQ, we'd have to do hot dogs and burgers because they're so easy and quick.

I can bring chicken, like El Pollo Loco, or something.

well paul you know I'm the burger and dog man, so I can bring that if needed. lets make sure we all have the location too.

Alon

Make a List of the STUFF Needed and Maybe a Sign up Sheet? To Make Sure Its Handled!
Also Please post the list on the Other Thread ?
Any Idea of a Total count on People?

HOLA... I'm back in the US :cool: !

I will bring my word famous chicken or pork mexican tostadas... I have been promising them to John Elliot for a long time, so perhaps everybody else would like to try them.

What else do you guys need ? Good idea on the list of the stuff needed and the people count...

Alon, my mouth is already salivating for another of your delicious burgers...

hehehe ok, so lets organize.

I will bring the following:

1. Burgers
2. Hot dogs
3. Buns for both
4. condiments for the burgers and dogs.
5. Digital camera

If you guys want me to grab anything else. let me know.

Alon

I Will Bring Some of My Home made 911 (XX HOT) Salsa
And Some RIBS for the BBQ(Would like a Count of people PLEASE)

Paper plates, plasticware, bottled water, and some of Leise's homemade German chocolate chip cookies! Leise and I make 2 for the GTG.

Put me down for a couple of chickens from El Pollo Loco, and a 24 pack of Snapple Iced Teas from Costco. :D ;) :cool:

Just reading that list is making me drool... :D

I wonder if I could get away on the weekend of the 10th and get down there? Can't promise yet (I'm in the middle of a move), but if so, maybe I could make up some brownies... :)

Mark, I will be there with my brother, and maybe my father, but my father doesn't eat meat.

Alon

Great! Bring your father, too. At least he could drink the Snapple Iced Tea.:D

Alon,

Nice to hear that your brother is coming :) , ask your "papa" to join us. I will prepare a vegetarian tostada specially for him.

Ok... and I guess I'll bring some marinated chicken breasts, and maybe a dessert also. (Geez, Baja Fresh sounds good too....) Seems like we need some more snacks, maybe some drinks, and desserts?
And Alon, will you bring enough ketchup, etc for us all? ;)

WHere ya been Eric!!?

who is bringing the beer?

Alon

David,

OK. CONFIRMED

Date: Sat, August 10, 2002
Time: 10:00(ish) - 2:00(ish)
Location: Newport Coast, 92657. Community park.

Community park... so I can't bring Beer:p :p :p

What no beer? How about some margaritas? :) hehe anyone have a battery powered blender?

Alon

Alon,

I do not have a portable blender, but could offer enough tequila for your project :p

eheheh Hmm maybe I should grab the power inverter.. :)

Some fine tequila ernesto. sounds good to me. though if we decide to go for a drive. hmmmm might be tricky if we have some margeritas down the hatches

Alon

Alon,

Straight shots before to get encourage... and Margaritas after the drive to celebrate :p

It's just a matter of combination :D Salud !

Should I bring also the lime and salt :confused:

Well ernesto, I'm down, don't forget the shot glasses too :)

I don't mind a little liquid courage.

Alon

What else do we need!:confused:

I'll definitely be there so if anyone can think of something else let me know.

I can certainly bring a light malt/hops beverage that many of us will enjoy;)

I also happen to have a High Shear Mixer than can crush ice or blend anything like nobodies business if someone happens to have a power inverter:eek:

So someone let me know what to bring, I don't want to show up empty handed.

don't forget your puppy Afshin... :)

Alon

Alon,

Hmmmm that might be a tough one seeing as she's not alowed in the Benz.:p

Maybe I can convince my wife that she needs to bring her car too!:D Or maybe we should just bring her car?:confused: Now I don't know what to do.

how about a basket for the puppy for the benz. :) hehehe

It was onlya suggestion. I would love to see the puppy with those foot long ears. so adorable.

I'd bring one of my doggies, but they would tear up the leather because they like to hang out the windows.

Alon

I thought this was a family gathering....but if you guys are having shots, I'm in. Where do I sign up?

I can help supply some Reposado and limes, do we have enough food?

ML Dude,

Yes, this will be a family gathering, but still a few shots are not going to hurt anybody !

I'll be bringing some Tequila Reposado too ! Do you have any special choice ?

About the food, I guess you can bring whatever you like, just make sure to let us know in advance in order to add it to the list.

Thanks !

Boom, here it is!
