PDX Day of Discord
5/23/09
Portland, OR
Contact: johnnybrainwash@hotmail.com
**UPDATE: Meetup location is Sound Grounds Coffee Shop, 3711 SE Belmont. Fallback is the Triple Nipple, 3646 SE Belmont (at the tables out front, in case you're underage.) Meet at 2PM, and try to be on time- we'll be moving out from there. Make sure to check the details of the Cargo Cult action.
We'll be at Laurelhurst Park by 3:30 or 4, between the pond and the bathrooms on Ankeny. If you're worried about finding us, email johnnybrainwash at hotmail by Saturday morning for contact infos.
Who?
Portland-area discordians, dysnomians, erisians and others of much ilk. Out-of-towners are totally welcome, but you'll have to make your own arrangements for a place to crash. Your hosts are the unincorporated discordians of PDX Occulture.
What?
It's the PDX Day of Discord! Getting discordians together is easier than you'd think. Check out last year's Day of Discord for our Portland event, and Kallisticon for international chaote-on-chaote action. We've been doing that one since 2001, and it hasn't killed us yet.
This year's plans involve a street action TBA, followed by a barbecue in the park. Don't let bad weather fool you- we have secret contingencies for a rain-out.
Further activities may be planned or arise spontaneously. Watch this space for further announcements.
When?
Saturday, May 23, 2009. Starting at 2PM on the streets of New Alamut, moving to Laurelhurst Park by 4. No telling how late we'll go. Depending on the crowd, we could end up in a coffee shop, a bar, or just plain jail.
If you can't make it in the afternoon, drop Johnny Brainwash a line and we'll try to arrange to meet you later on.
Where?
Watch this space for details, or email Johnny Brainwash for updates.
Why?
Sticking apart is more fun when we do it together.
What should I bring?
Your bad self. Supplies for street action (details TBA). Bring a water bottle as well as other beverages. Be advised that alcohol is not permitted. You may want a blanket to sit on, sunscreen, all the crap you'd bring for a day in the park. Frisbees are awesome. Noisemakers, funny hats and objects for show and tell can't hurt.
Johnny Brainwash and cohorts will supply food for the barbecue, both meaty and vegan. Please bring a few dollars to throw in the hat. If you have any special dietary needs, let us know now.
