Nu, so start looking for a good MR that hardcore DDF'ers can do to after the DO :)

It looks like March/April would be a good timeframe.  What's your schedule look like for then?

Cooler would be a mileage run (preferably *A) where every member that is crazy/serious enough would participate.

Interesting idea...

Suggested itin? Ex-NYC?

Lets first find a decent itinerary.

If good enough, it can even start in a remote location.

I don't see you on the reservation list sir ;)

At any rate, folks are free to suggest other options, I just haven't seen any yet besides Prime Grill which is "cliche" and overpriced.

I definitely prefer La Marais, or the Kretchme... :D (meaning I really don't care about the venue, it's y'all I'm coming to see)

Touché. How about the abbreviated version: Evidence of live mice present in facility's food.

That's obvious.  Who would give a hechsher to a place that serves milk and meat together ;)

Yup, but we do still need to pick a suitable place.

Agreed. I'll do any place, but I prefer no EWR, harder to get to. If people here want LM, that's okay with me too (it just isn't a necessity for me).
