Today’s party details partially revealed!

Griff Wigley posted on Feb 20 2007 at 09:22

We hit 1/3 of the votes needed on today’s downtown party so I’ve not revealed 1/3 of the information on who, what, when, where, how, why.

Huh?

See the end of the comment thread from the original blog post, A party. Somewhere downtown. Soon. Are you hip enough? Take the poll.
