[Phoenix-pm] In town Sun, Mon

[Michael Friedman]

Well, I do have a car, there's no need for using my hotel room. (For  
another thing, my wife and toddler are here, one of whom has an 8 pm  
bedtime.)

Also, given the lateness of today, I'm inclined to meet tomorrow  
instead. (It turns out I can do Tuesday night too.) Anywhere within a  
half-hour of downtown Scottsdale would be fine. Mill's End is great,  
since I already know where that is. I just discovered today that my  
former favorite cafe, Romancing the Bean, is no longer in North  
Scottsdale, they're now in the giant construction zone on Rio Salado  
in Tempe... and only open until 5 pm, so that won't work.

So, unless anyone has a better idea, how about?

Time: Tuesday 8/1  8:00 pm
Location: Mill's End (or other suitable juncture)
Topic: conversation, random perl talk

Although I've always been curious as to how Scott lives...
