Reminder: Rantapalooza Saturday April 22, Washington DC
2006-04-17
Once again, the Rantburg editorial staff cordially invites the RB readership to join us for some of that unseemly mirth and frivolity our betters are always warning us against.

So set aside some time on the evening of Saturday April 22 and come meet your fellow Rantburgers. As always, Fred and I will be attending, with (green) Steve appearing as this Palooza's celebrity moderator.

All y'all interested in attending, please email me for details. Your email will not be sold, rented, or otherwise loaned out to my neighbor who still owes me a shutter gun and three rounds of bullet.

We look forward to a lovely evening and only a small bill for damages.
Update: keep sending me email; I'm back from family Easter stuff and am ready for some libations!

#26  Would anyone be interested in a Rantapalooza in NYC?

It would take some planning, but much frivolity and mirth could ensue.

Wish we could arrange a SoCal meeting at the same time to usher in the harmonic convergence.

#20  Unfortunately, SPo'D, DC is a gun-free (but definitely NOT crime-free; cause, meet effect) place. :-(

#19  #15: I am not coming unless you insist that everyone checks their weapons at the door.

I assume that you mean that everyone checks to be sure they're loaded and clean, that's the whole idea of freedom, you know.

By the way, the safest I have ever felt was at a gun show in Montgomery, surrounded by around a thousand armed freindly folk.

#12  Sounds like a very fun time, third one's a charm as they say heh. Can't make it with distance, expense and timing. Thanks for the invite though.
Any chance of having streaming video? ;) Or would this get too many folks into trouble lol.

#11  I think we also need a rantapalooza for the greater gulf coast co-prosperity sphere.

#10  Rantapalooza silicon valley anyone? We could pick fights with or just make fun of with all ungrateful furiners here.

#9  My parole officer is always warning me to stay away from miscreants, and the guest list already looks suspicious. Can I write this off as a charity tribute to St. Pancake?

#8  Usually we come naked, but we do wear funny hats.

#7  Unfortunately it's a tad far for me, so I can't tell of you my plan to flood Bangla with shutter guns, seeing the unfortunate consequences being in possesion of one causes for undesireable characters. That is, once I figure out what a shutter gun is.

#6  This'll be my first Rantapalooza, what's the dress code? We supposed to wear shirts and shoes?

#5  I'll be at a religious men's retreat that weekend, but I DO wish everyone who attends a pleasant time.

If broadhead6 plans to attend, let me know: I'll hit the tipjar to buy him a round.

#4  How much fun would this be.

I wonder if I was able to go (can't in wrong continent) if I would get into any ranting arguments. Probably.

#3  Rats! I'll be fighting Yankees that weekend. Tazewell, Virginia.

#2  How about a video link for those of us who don't live in the Northeastern United States?
