| waltman | there are several in center city, including a couple in suburban station | 01:22 |
|---|---|---|
| JonathanD | Theres one in norristown now. | 01:22 |
| JonathanD | they're popping up everywhere. | 01:22 |
| JonathanD | We need one in bridgeport. | 01:23 |
| pleia2 | not everywhere :( | 01:23 |
| JonathanD | So I can walk to it. | 01:23 |
| waltman | and one in paoli | 01:23 |
| JonathanD | pleia2: stock up in July? | 01:23 |
| pleia2 | that and dunkin donuts coffee | 01:23 |
| waltman | pleia2: yeah, but you can walk across the street to a chipotle with a liquor license :) | 01:23 |
| pleia2 | true | 01:24 |
| pleia2 | I never buy any there though because it's all boring | 01:25 |
| pleia2 | coronas and strange premixed margaritas | 01:25 |
| JonathanD | mmm chipotle | 01:25 |
| JonathanD | pleia2: you can only carry 3 oz of DD back on the plane :( | 01:25 |
| JonathanD | or whatever it is. | 01:25 |
| pleia2 | nah, ground stuff for my coffee maker! | 01:26 |
| * pleia2 has 1.5 bags left | 01:26 | |
| andrew | Good thing you can buy more online: https://shop.dunkindonuts.com/shoponline/Category.aspx?CategoryId=COFF | 01:33 |
| pleia2 | shipping is killer | 01:34 |
| pleia2 | can actually get it at safeway too, but it's not the same.. | 01:34 |
| andrew | pleia2: Then go with amazon? http://www.amazon.com/Dunkin-Donuts-Original-Medium-Resealable/dp/B001I19IDA | 01:35 |
| pleia2 | sshh, you're ruining my excuses to go back to philly | 01:35 |
| andrew | pleia2: You were just in philly a week ago | 01:35 |
| pleia2 | it was raining | 01:35 |
| andrew | so? | 01:36 |
| PennBot | Somebody said so is it normal behavior for empathy that when you fill the line you're typing in it makes the window bigger instead of going to a new line, andrew | 01:36 |
| pleia2 | and no time between planes to get coffee (I actually had planned on it) | 01:36 |
| andrew | excuses | 01:36 |

| pleia2 | andrew: I'll be in the wrong country during google i/o | 02:00 |
| andrew | too bad | 02:00 |
| andrew | ubuntu stuff? | 02:00 |
| pleia2 | I live right by there though | 02:00 |
| pleia2 | yeah, ubuntu developer summit in budapest | 02:00 |
| andrew | hmmm budapest | 02:00 |
| andrew | my boss was in Budapest a few months ago for work | 02:01 |
| pleia2 | I snagged some folks from ubuntu-hu to give us tours :) | 02:02 |
| pleia2 | meeting up with some of them sunday afternoon when I arrive to do some daytime stuff | 02:02 |
| andrew | first time there? | 02:02 |
| andrew | hrm, flyers are up 3-0 | 02:02 |
| andrew | they best not mess things up | 02:02 |
| pleia2 | yeah, and only my 4th time to europe (england, belgium, ireland) | 02:03 |
| pleia2 | sheesh, look at me, 3 years ago I'd never even been out of the US :) | 02:04 |
| andrew | my visits to europe can be represented with an empty set | 02:04 |
| pleia2 | europe doesn't have enough cheese or water pressure in showers | 02:04 |
| JonathanD | or cheese in showers. | 02:05 |
| pleia2 | cheese should never be in showers | 02:05 |
| andrew | should showers be in cheese? | 02:05 |
| JonathanD | it's raining cheese. | 02:05 |
| JonathanD | hallelujah | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | when I came home from 2 weeks in england I bought a GIANT cheesy pizza | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | it was nice | 02:06 |
| JonathanD | They always brag about how good their cheese is. | 02:06 |
| JonathanD | and how crumby ours is. | 02:06 |
| JonathanD | Perhaps this is because there isn't any. | 02:06 |
| andrew | did they forget to melt ours? | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | yeah, ours needs to be melted and put on everything | 02:07 |
| JonathanD | I had a nice piece of NY chedder on saturday. | 02:07 |
| JonathanD | we cut it in slices, it was yum. | 02:07 |
| rmg51 | cheese-whiz ;-) | 02:07 |
| andrew | We even put cheese on our steak! | 02:08 |
| pleia2 | mm cheesesteak wit whiz | 02:08 |
| andrew | I'm pretty sure that statement is shortened to "wit" | 02:09 |
| pleia2 | but what about the onions? | 02:09 |
| pleia2 | I do not want onions | 02:09 |
| andrew | hrm, dunno | 02:10 |
| * andrew avoids the city as much as humanly possible | 02:10 | |
| waltman | no, no, no. | 03:45 |
| waltman | wid/wid-out refers to *onions*, not cheese. | 03:45 |

| PennBot | Title: How to Order a Cheesesteak - Pat's Steaks | Flickr - Photo Sharing! (at www.flickr.com) | 03:46 |
| ChinnoDog | peeps need directions? | 03:47 |
| waltman | Interestingly, it does say "wit" there, but I'm pretty sure the true Philly accent is more "wid" than "wit" | 03:47 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: This is only at pretentious places like Pat's. Anywhere else you can order in normal English, and they won't have whiz. | 03:48 |
| pleia2 | the cheesesteak place here has whiz, is goooood | 03:48 |
| pleia2 | jakessteaks.net yum yum | 03:49 |
| waltman | There are 1000s of places to buy cheesesteaks in the Philadelphia area, but I'm guessing less than 10 have whiz. | 03:49 |
| ChinnoDog | whiz? | 03:49 |
| andrew | ... | 03:49 |
| pleia2 | cheese whiz | 03:49 |
| andrew | (did he ask what I think he asked?) | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | lol | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | he's not from around here | 03:50 |
| ChinnoDog | Why would you put cheese whiz on a cheese steak? | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | oh dear | 03:50 |
| andrew | define 'here' since you are currently thousands of miles from where i am | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | andrew: philly! | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | I am there in spirit while talking about cheesesteaks | 03:51 |
| pleia2 | except for the jakes steaks thing, that's my little philly enclave in sf | 03:51 |
| pleia2 | their whole wall is a photo of boathouse row | 03:51 |
| pleia2 | and they haz Tastykakes | 03:52 |
| andrew | for now | 03:52 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: You wouldn't. You'd put American or Provolone. | 03:52 |
| ChinnoDog | So why would a nice cheesteak place have whiz? | 03:54 |
| pleia2 | it's traditional | 03:55 |
| waltman | it's traditional at like 3 places. | 03:55 |
| ChinnoDog | lol | 03:55 |
| pleia2 | 3 famous places! | 03:56 |
| waltman | yeah, yeah | 03:56 |
| ChinnoDog | I'll take one with swiss, and wid | 03:56 |
| ChinnoDog | No whiz | 03:56 |
| waltman | no, swiss isn't an option | 03:56 |
| ChinnoDog | It isn't? | 03:56 |
| pleia2 | nope, american or provolone | 03:57 |
| waltman | The traditional options are American (the default), provolone, or mozzarella if you want a pizza steak. | 03:57 |
| pleia2 | I actually prefer chicken cheesesteaks w/ american cheese | 03:57 |
| ChinnoDog | Maybe I used to get them with provolone then | 03:57 |
| ChinnoDog | I was never into American | 03:57 |
| waltman | yeah, provolone's just a better, tastier cheese | 03:57 |
| * pleia2 gnaws on matzah | 03:58 | |
| pleia2 | i want breeeeaaad | 03:58 |
| ChinnoDog | Poor pleia2 | 03:58 |
| waltman | andrew: You ever go to the Peppermille? | 03:58 |
| waltman | s/e$// | 03:58 |
| ChinnoDog | Someone fedex a cheese steak to pleia2 | 03:58 |
| pleia2 | the ones from jake's are fine | 03:58 |
| andrew | the peppermill? you mean "Pepper Mill"? | 03:58 |
| pleia2 | but it's across town | 03:58 |
| waltman | Oh, is it 2 words? Yeah, the place at 352 and Paoli Pike. | 03:59 |
| ChinnoDog | Boyfriends are often useful for tasks such as this. | 03:59 |
| andrew | waltman: http://maps.google.com/maps?um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=pepper+mill&fb=1&gl=us&hq=pepper+mill&hnear=West+Chester,+PA&cid=0,0,4670750492335660779&ei=c4a3Tbm5MILBtgeUkoXfBA&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=image&resnum=9&ved=0CKcBEJ8CMAg | 03:59 |
| PennBot | Title: Google Maps (at maps.google.com) | 03:59 |
| pleia2 | he's even further away than the cheesesteaks! | 03:59 |
| andrew | yes, plenty of times, but generally for strombolies | 03:59 |
| andrew | never had a cheesesteak there | 03:59 |
| waltman | Everything's great there. | 03:59 |
| ChinnoDog | pleia2: does that mean the cheese steaks are on his way home? | 04:00 |
| pleia2 | ChinnoDog: unfortunately not | 04:00 |
| waltman | We used to go there a lot when I was working at QVC. My favorite was the South of the Border Chicken Cheesesteak. | 04:00 |
| andrew | waltman: you used to work at qvc? | 04:00 |
| pleia2 | he was a model | 04:00 |
| andrew | lulz | 04:01 |
| waltman | Yep, for most of the 90s | 04:01 |
| andrew | most of the 90s? | 04:01 |
| andrew | what year did they open that location up? | 04:02 |
| waltman | 1986, I think. | 04:02 |
| andrew | hrm | 04:02 |
| waltman | I started in 1990, and it was already several years old then. | 04:02 |
| andrew | in the same building they are in now? | 04:03 |
| waltman | I started at 1365 Enterprise Drive. I think they still have some office space there, but in the mid 90s they moved most of their operations to the place on Airport Rd. | 04:04 |
| andrew | I remember when they opened the airport rd location (vaguely) | 04:05 |
| waltman | Yeah, it was a big deal. That used to be where Commodore was located. | 04:05 |
| ChinnoDog | pleia2: When I lived in Jersey I had a short list of cheesteak delivery places. I guess you don't have those... | 04:05 |
| andrew | uh-oh, delta plane made emergancy landing at phl, reports of smoke in cockpit | 04:06 |
| pleia2 | jake's is run by philly natives, they do it wrong at other places | 04:06 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: now she's got a *very* short list :) | 04:06 |
| pleia2 | they do delivery, but not this far out from where they are | 04:07 |
| * waltman now has a strange craving for a cheesesteak | 04:07 | |
| pleia2 | hehe | 04:07 |
| ChinnoDog | Offer them a few extra bucks! | 04:08 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: steaks only travel well up to a certain short distance from the grill. | 04:09 |
| ChinnoDog | If only there was a cheese steak stand on wheels you could call up. | 04:10 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: We've got cheesteak trucks all over the place around Drexel and Penn :) | 04:11 |
| ChinnoDog | Well tell one of them to drive to SF for a cheese steak emergency | 04:12 |
| waltman | pleia2: do you have a bear light to bring to the release party on thursday? | 04:13 |
| pleia2 | waltman: it would be red all the time! | 04:13 |
| waltman | exactly! | 04:14 |
| pleia2 | I wish they had better food, they do tapas, which to them means tiny sf-food appetizers that cost $12 each | 04:15 |
| pleia2 | sf-food == fancy, usually somewhat healthy, fuzion food | 04:17 |
| * pleia2 likes proper brewpub pub food | 04:18 | |
| pleia2 | like sly fox, man I loved sly fox | 04:18 |
| pleia2 | fox > bear | 04:18 |
| waltman | and sourdough. | 04:35 |

| InHisName | The instigator wrote a book called 1994? that called that the end. Ha! | 15:50 |

| ChinnoDog | hi freelancer317 | 20:23 |
| freelancer317 | Hiya ChinnoDog... How've you been? | 20:25 |
| ChinnoDog | Been fine. Busy. | 20:26 |
| ChinnoDog | Need more release parties for distraction | 20:26 |
| freelancer317 | Yea. That would be great. | 20:26 |
| ssweeny | ChinnoDog, want to throw an ubu release party in pittsburgh? | 20:27 |
| ssweeny | i'd love to do it but i'm busy | 20:27 |
| ChinnoDog | haha | 20:27 |
| ChinnoDog | That venue is not very convenient for me | 20:27 |
| ssweeny | ChinnoDog, not everything is about you | 20:28 |
| ssweeny | you're depriving the poor people of pittsburgh of a party | 20:28 |
| ChinnoDog | Are we going to play the zombie game? | 20:28 |
| teddy-dbear | what about Philly? | 20:28 |
| ssweeny | i'll bring the zombie game to the party if you want | 20:29 |
| ssweeny | it's lots of fun | 20:29 |
| ssweeny | we can pretend the zombies are mac users | 20:29 |
| ChinnoDog | The release party happens near the person who is willing to plan it. haha | 20:29 |
| pleia2 | you are all welcome to come to thirsty bear in san francisco | 20:29 |
| pleia2 | jono bacon will be there! | 20:29 |
| andrew | beer, and bacon! | 20:30 |
| ssweeny | will he be signing t-shirts? | 20:30 |
| pleia2 | yes, I'll bring a sharpie | 20:30 |
| freelancer317 | pleia2 who cares about jono... will you be there? lol | 20:30 |
| pleia2 | freelancer317: yep! | 20:30 |
| ssweeny | man, who knew planning a trip to europe two weeks out would be so stressful? :) | 20:31 |
| pleia2 | I'm sure I'll be budapest-freaking-out soon | 20:31 |
| pleia2 | I am not very ready | 20:31 |
| ssweeny | my problem is i'm leaving for that trip from another trip so i have to plan twice as hard | 20:32 |
| pleia2 | my weekends in may: fly to budapest, fly from budapest, fly to and from miami, fly to and from edmonton | 20:32 |
| ssweeny | sounds like fun | 20:33 |
| ChinnoDog | Is mrs_sweeny going to budapest? | 20:33 |
| pleia2 | june: stay home and sleep | 20:33 |
| ssweeny | mrs_ssweeny will sadly not be joining me. | 20:33 |
| JonathanD | SLeeping for a month? | 20:33 |
| ssweeny | she'll likely be leaving for brazil just as i get back | 20:33 |
| pleia2 | I'll need it! | 20:33 |
| JonathanD | As long as you're sleeping a whole month, you should stop here on the way back from edmonton... so you can go camping. | 20:33 |
| JonathanD | Since you'd only be sleeping otherwise, anyway :P | 20:34 |
| freelancer317 | JonathanD How've you been? | 20:37 |
| JonathanD | I've been good. | 20:38 |
| JonathanD | busy planning fosscon :D | 20:38 |
| freelancer317 | How's it coming? | 20:38 |
| JonathanD | Coming along. | 20:40 |
| JonathanD | It's in Philly this year. | 20:41 |
| JonathanD | July. | 20:41 |
| freelancer317 | That sounds awesome! Who many people do you think that it will draw? | 20:45 |
| freelancer317 | attendee wise? | 20:45 |
| JonathanD | We had about 100 last year, this year is in a more accesible space, so at least that... | 20:51 |
| JonathanD | shooting for 150 | 20:52 |
| freelancer317 | I'll have to clear it with my wife, but hope to make it down there. Where will it be? Better to drive to take train? | 20:54 |
| JonathanD | it's walkable from market east. | 20:54 |
| JonathanD | Depends on what else you want to do, I suppose. | 20:55 |
| pleia2 | we probably won't even be renting a car (airport to city, then public transit or zipcar if absolutely required for sunday thing) | 20:55 |
| JonathanD | Theres no need to drive to basekamp, I don't think. So it's really a question of do you want to drive anywhere else. | 20:56 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 20:56 |
| JonathanD | theres plenty else within walking distance too | 20:57 |
| * pleia2 nods | 20:57 | |
| andrew | Wait... is pleia2 coming to fosscon this year? | 20:59 |
| pleia2 | si | 20:59 |
| JonathanD | andrew: pleia2 is keynoting | 20:59 |
| JonathanD | I'm finishing up the email to plug right now. | 21:00 |
| freelancer317 | JonathanD did you get in touch with CPLUG? | 21:00 |
| JonathanD | Yeah. | 21:01 |
| JonathanD | occasionally, anyway :p | 21:01 |
| JonathanD | flyers will be handed out there. | 21:01 |
| freelancer317 | I haven't been able to make most of their meetings due to tball being every darned Tues... | 21:02 |
| JonathanD | On that note... there needs to be a ubuntu pa table, I think. | 21:02 |
| JonathanD | I'm certainly not going to have time to do one. | 21:02 |
| JonathanD | freelancer317: you're central PA, iirc? | 21:03 |
| JonathanD | closer to cplug? | 21:03 |
| freelancer317 | yep | 21:03 |
| freelancer317 | I'm in Harrisburg | 21:04 |
| JonathanD | Right. | 21:04 |
| freelancer317 | If my schedule works out, I may be able to help for the table down there. | 21:05 |
| freelancer317 | I'll see if I can wrangle up some conference stuff | 21:06 |
