["Jonathan Baker" <jjbaker@xxxxxxxxx>]

> So...Jonathan, -is- your housefilk still happening? 

Yes.  No Gingi, but we decided last night to do it anyway.

> Lisa and I were planning on attending...

Terrif.  I was wondering if anyone would notify the Avram/Christine/Lisa/Josh
cluster.  I haven't heard from the Cadre; do they ever read their email?


OK, then, since this is going to the list:

What about food?  We plan to be dairy, we'll probably order pizza
at some point.  

THIS IS A KOSHER HOUSE.

Food, certified-kosher dairy or pareve, conditionally welcome - 
check with Debra first.

Our computer is out of commission; we've ordered a new one, but it
won't be here until next week, so don't expect to be able to access
internet archives, or print lyrics, unless you bring your own.  We
do have a DSL line, so we can probably hook up if you bring a laptop
with an Ethernet connection.

How do I get there?

   From the north, i.e. Riverdale/Manhattan: Brooklyn Bridge, to BQE, 
to Prospect Expressway, to Ocean Parkway, to Avenue N,

   From the south, i.e. Staten Island/NJ: Verrazano, to Shore/Belt Parkway,
to Ocean Parkway North, to Avenue N, right on Avenue N, dal segno al fine.

   Q train to Avenue M, when you get out of station turn left, walk along
Avenue M or Elm Ave, turn left on East 12th, walk a block to Avenue N,
cross Avenue N, continue on East 12th to the fourth house on the left
