Do you believe in luck?  If not, and you live near DC, come to an OB meetup at my place southwest of Washington DC on Friday March 13th, at 7PM!  If you reply to this post and say you want to come, AND provide your real e-mail in the "email" line when you post, I'll email back with details.  (The email address provided by each commentator gets sent to the author of the original post.)

Even if I know you're coming, replying here will let others know who's coming.

Well, I didn't see this post until today, five hours before the gathering is planned to begin. So I feel like a real jerk saying "I'd love to come by." I will not be offended if ignored!

I have a whole lot of hors d’oeuvres (how I hate that word); wine, beer, cider; diet coke, dr. pepper, lemon-lime sode, diet orange soda, diet root beer, cherry soda; crackers; potato and corn chips, french fries, mini-tacos, peanuts; small chocolate bars; one pie and one cheesecake; cookies; crab cakes; carrots & celery.

Could use more dips and spreads, fruit juice, mead, bagels, homemade bread, and actual food.

I'm well-stocked for games, but you can bring games. If you have a video that you think is particularly relevant, bring it. In either case it's up to you to convince people to play/watch.
