The people have spoken…next Sunday’s Balloon Juice Ideas Festival will take place at Walker’s restaurant in Tribeca at 4 pm on Sunday November 13. I’ll figure out some way to make myself recognizable.

sounds like it’s time to break out the top hat, monocle and cane in order to make your fashion statement Doug ;-)

Downtown?
scav
Green balloons.

Get out the word on ALL media to NOT support a EURO bail-out with US funds.

@scav:
You think that’s what Doug should wear?
Hmmm. Anything else?
Spaghetti Lee
Handlebar mustache!
BGinCHI
Underoos.
ETA: Or a cape.
Raven (formerly stuckinred)
A circle pin.
DougJ
@scav:
Not a bad idea.
scav
@Poopyman: Well, that would attract a crowd — might even tempt me to buy a last-minute ticket.

i’ll make sure to wear a bear suit.

Cramer is screaming at the candidates!
David Koch
You can wear this.

Not watching the debate, the head story on both CNN and MSNBC is about Joe Paterno and the Penn State horror story.
I know we’ve talked about it ad nosum, but this story is just heartwrenching and disgusting. No one who see a child being harmed should take a blind eye and not go above and beyond to report and ensure the child and future children’s protection from a predator.
Damn, football victories do not take precedent over the protection and well-being of our children…I dont’ care how many wins you have!

Cosmo? Last time I saw that guy screaming at somebody it didn’t turn out so well for him.

@Raven (formerly stuckinred): Oh thank you for watching for me…I can’t bear it. But who am I to talk, I’m wallowing in Paterno Gate on MSNBC.
Raven (formerly stuckinred)
@Poopyman: He’s on the panel and he jumped ugly on Ron Paul.
Raven (formerly stuckinred)
Romney just said this is the most political administration, like, evahhhhhhh.

A colleague of mine is at the debate. he’s a journalism student and won tickets. He gets to do a meet/greet with the candidates. He’s a young Dem so I’m looking forward to his impressions.

As they say in that song: I’ll be there.

RossInDetroit:
This is some new definition of “win” — from opposite world, maybe? — with which I’m not familiar. It sounds like torture.
Of all the things one could win — Powerball, a trip to Bermuda, a horse race, etc — meeting the Republican primary candidates has to rank right down there with STDs.

I’ll be the dufus with a camera. Maybe a mortgage pig shirt if I can find it. I hope you appreciate that I’m giving up valuable Skyrim time for this.
Roger Moore
@David Koch:
Of this.

@JGabriel:
Look at it this way: he’s a part time custodian and the alternative to the debate was a shift cleaning 11 bathrooms in an elementary school. I know, tossup.
PurpleGirl
I’ll be there… in purple. What else?
Citizen_X
You’ll be the guy pretending to be Reality Check?
schrodinger's cat
Wear seersucker.
Johannes
La Caterina and I will be there!
Diana
I’ll be there! with iphone pictures of Puffy!
Perry Como
Can we discuss the finer points about heliocentrism being an atheist doctrine?
DougJ
@Perry Como:
Of course, long time, no see.

@Perry Como:
Dayaaam. That’s bringing it old school. Read any Boethius lately?
Comrade Colette Collaboratrice
That pink leather jacket you wore in San Francisco worked pretty well.
Will
This is awesome. I’ll be there!
Cuppa Cabana
Fucking hell. You think Cole is the only one watching teh football? Giants v. SF @ 4:15.
Walker’s had teevee last time I was there but they are tiny, wood-burning teevees from a bygone era.
Paul in KY
We need to have a Balloon Juice meetup in Louisville or Cinn. I know there are several of us in the area.
