Tufts!

Well if I had been granted the day off from work I'd be there but noooo...work wanted someone to finish a stupid stupid project that they foisted off on me and then I don't get the day off and I find someone else went and finished my project for me at 4pm. Today. And it's too late to ask for time.

I guess I'll just have to have a drink at work. Again.
 
I'm amazed that there's so much interest in a dog show.

Oh, wait, that's "Crufts", isn't it? What's this then - some sort of other furry animal competition?

It wouldn't hurt my feelings to know that I was the one responsible for having you banned.

I'm tough like that.

That comes after the lecture, at the bar.

I'm not coming this evening. Don't throw yourself off a bridge! You'll get over it eventually. :p
 
There is no mention of Randi on the Tufts calander (website), are there signs to the lecture hall? I am not familiar with the boston campus other than the map on their website.

Hi "O," welcome to the forum!

Thank you!

Introduce yourself Wednesday, though. I'll be the one with the hair and the eyes and the shoes with the laces double-knotted.
Hopefully I won't be recognizable as the 3rd VP of the Society for the Improvement of Chiropractic Klaptrap.

I guess our little joke has been discovered.

We didn't get the cooperation of Tufts officials for a more obvious place to pull in some easy believers. We were hoping to entrap more so-called skeptics who are not actually skeptical, falling for the old "Lecture at X" trick.

Heard of PT Barnum? Try Barnum Hall. Try 163 Packard Ave.
Think of laughter as people try to find a non-existent lecture.

Hm, sassy. I like it.

Scott was nice enough to send along this link, to a handy campus map:

http://www.tufts.edu/home/maps/medford/?p=parking

I suggest we all try to get there early, so we can spend plenty of time wandering the campus cursing and looking for the building.
 
Well looordy me, I been a snookered:D
Interesting how rebecca's link is to the medford campus, and the original announcement was for boston. I say we just meet somewhere and drink, maybe we could use 'becca's googles to propel jello shots into the air and try to catch them.........nah..too much effort......
 
I'm going but I thought it was at the Medford Campus. Hey Rebecca, as a member of NESS can you clarify?

Does this mean that I don't have to get there as early to get a seat? Since it's not officially a lecture and isn't publicized? As much as I want to sneak out of work early, leaving 2 hours early might be noticed. And then there's the workday traffic on Route 2....and the snow that's supposed to be coming. Curses! :(

Actually, I'm not a member of NESS but Scott is, and his word is good as gold.

Barnum Hall, Medford campus.

I imagine it was originally announced as "Boston" because most people lump Cambridge, Medford, and Somerville in with Boston. Actually, I don't even know the difference between those three.

Anyway, it's the Davis Square T stop on the red line. The Tufts site I linked to above has good directions no matter how you're getting there.

And by the by, I've chosen a subdued hot pink shirt, so you should be able to see me from across the Charles.

I've chosen subdued hot bleached hair, including 'burns. You should be able to see me from a distance, too. But I suggest you see Rebecca. :)
 
I'll be dressed in a boring brown and white Icelandic style sweater and jeans. But I'm tall for a skepchic so hopefully you'll spot me. I'm sure we'll spot Rebecca.
