Anyone in Boston 3/16-3/22?

I'll be in Boston for two of my features if anyone wants to get together for a beer or something to eat in the evening.

Shaun (84targa - or something), I think, ought to be right across the river in Cambridge.

There are some others that might chime in too. I live in CA now but I was born and raised in Boston so, if you have any questions, maybe I can help...

Ok, Grant and Shaun, and anyone else in the Boston area. Want to get together for dinner in Boston/Cambridge? How about Tuesday or Thursday evening of next week (3/18 or 3/20)? I wouldn't mind a seafood place as long as I'm in Boston, say the Union Oyster House or one of the Legal Seafood places.

Tuesday it is! The Union Oyster house is very cool, about 200 or so years old. Its in Government Center, but I'm up for anything.

Established 1826, so not quite 200 years old. Very cool place if you've never been there.

Ok, Shaun, Dean and Grant, it looks like we're on for Tuesday nite. I'm in Boston. PPOT was off line for a while. I think I've PM'd you all my cell phone number, if you can do the same, just in case... Where do you want to meet? I'm at the Intercontinental on the waterfront in Boston, but I have a rental car. I want to do what's convenient for you guys since your taking time out of your personal lives to meet a visitor. I know Shaun said he'd never been to the Union Oyster House near Government center. If your up for that great, if not, I'm open to suggestion. If your interested, I can bring my laptop and show you pictures of the making of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies and others, if your interested.

Hugh

Shaun 84 Targa and I met at the Union Oyster House (est. 1828). Unfortunately Tishabet (Grant) and Deanp) called in sick. We had a great couple of hours. Shaun gave me FIVE of the beautiful Rudge Whitworth Grand Prix Ulster long sleeved T-shirts that he created. He wouldn't take a dime so the least I could do was insist on picking up the tab for dinner and drinks. An absolute bargain on my part, and I totally scored. I told Shaun that I'd try and hook him up with the Rudge Enthusiats Club in England to see if he can sell some more. I'm pretty sure he will cause any Rudge stuff is really hard to find.

Thanks Shaun, I'll be back in Boston again a few times over the next few months for the two features that I'm working on, "The Proposal" and "Surrogates". The first is a Sandra Bullock love story/comedy,and the second is a Bruce Willis action thriller like nothing you've ever imagined. Both come out in 2009.

I'll make sure to catch up next time.

Hugh, the pleasure was all mine! and it was very gracious of you to pick up dinner, you are certainly a part of what makes Pelican great. Next time you are in town, it's on me...and may have some more t-shirts for you as well. there's a lot of design left in your Rugde pics you sent me, can't thank you enough for those, but hope to make a dent.

Have a safe trip back home and let us know when you'll be back!

Sorry I couldn't make it guys, like deanp today is my first day back at work after the...cold? Flu? Ebola? We'll call it Flucola for clarity.

Hugh, I look forward to catching up with you (and the rest of you guys!) next time you're in town. Glad to hear Shaun made a good showing on Boston's behalf!
