Re: [silk] Triskaidekaphilia
We move this meetup to the 14th? at Windsor Pub? Another thread - not a drift, mind you - has been happening since evening to this effect. All those who want Udhay to buy drinks, and juice, converge there for the arm twisting. :-) Cheers, -V On Thu, Nov 25, 2010 at 5:48 PM, Anish Mohammed anish.moham...@gmail.comwrote: On 19th December 2010, Silk-List turns 13 years old. it's been quite a ride (with a surprising number of people who've been around for all 13 years). hoping to be in bang around that time, would love to join if there is a meet up :) Anish Mohammed Twitter: anishmohammed http://uk.linkedin.com/in/anishmohammed On 24 Nov 2010, at 13:00, Udhay Shankar N ud...@pobox.

Re: [silk] Triskaidekaphilia
On Wed, Nov 24, 2010 at 7:34 PM, Kiran K Karthikeyan I propose Udhay buys us all drinks. Seconded :) This Bangalore-centric celebration is exclusionary for the rest of us who don't have the fortune of living in the Garden City. Such an exclusionary attitude is anathema on an occasion that is meant for a united celebration. Hence to foster the spirit of unified celebration, I propose that Udhay buys drinks for all those in Bangalore and sends booze stamps/vouchers to all the other silklisters not fortunate enough to be citizens of the Garden City. I'd like mine redeemable against a friggin' vat of Balvenie, please. Thank you.

This Sunday was particularly bad because my small pineapple juice was Rs.20 at some stall...and then we went somewhere else for those Scotches. We were in one of those places which put the price in words, not figures, which (ike large and heavy menus) always means higher prices Thread drift has now officially been established.
