No, that’s not where one eats bibliobloggers for lunch, but rather the time during which one meets other bibliobloggers for conversation and food. It’s going to be at 11:30am on Sunday at the entrance to the book exhibit, so that all the people going to the book exhibit can say, “Who are all these crazies blocking the entrance to the book exhibit?”
Chris Brady is scoping out lunch options and Kevin Wilson encourages us all to get the word out. Hence, this post. This is not a closed session, by the way. All are welcome. It is unfortunate, though, that April DeConick can’t make it. I’ll have to find her elsewhere!
It’ll only be a little over an hour, so that people can head over to various presentations of interest that start around 1pm.
I would also like to mention just how grateful I only have a two-hour train ride to get to San Diego, unlike the massive journeys faced by Chris Tilling and James Crossley.
Remind me again who suggested the entrance to the book exhibit … which is where everybody meets for everything at SBL!
pat,
nice meetin’ ya buddy. enjoy the rest of your semester.

That journey was far too long but a great conference and meal I thought.
It was good to meet you too, Michael. Best wishes in your doctoral apps. I hope you don’t steal any spots that I was looking to get
It was a good meal, and fun to see how many people showed up. Unfortunate, though, that it was so big I didn’t even get to meet you, James!
