Come one, come all, to Ceilidh 2006, the 0th of it's kind. Ceilidh 2006 is a party I am throwing with the (mild) theme of philosophy, but it will also have plenty of other stuff so if philosophy is dull to you, you hopefully won't be bored!

Where? At the house of Gunn. Located at 5544 Hobart Street (1st floor) in Squirrel Hill.

Starting When? 1136160000, also known as 28 January 2006 19:00, the second weekend after classes start at CMU. This is a saturday. It runs until whenever.

What? Food, Games, and talk about philosophy. If you would like to make things interesting, think about some philosopher who is interesting, and try to summarize their most interesting ideas in a paragraph or too. Anyone who chooses a religious figure gets a swirly in my toilet and does *not* get to talk. Also, I have a microscope, so bring cool stuff to look at (no bodily fluids, thanks). I have two adorable cats, which I can either keep in an alternate location (if people are allergic they can go in the very back room) or let them roam around being really cute.

How? RSVP via email at pgunn@dachte.org. Then show up.

Things to bring and things not to bring: Games are good. I have illuminati (2 sets) and also have super smash brothers (4 player game for the Gamecube). Other stuff is cool too. I don't keep meat in my place, and will probably be buying mostly pizza, stuff from the nearby bakery, and healthy stuff for the party. If you want to bring something, you're welcome to. I have a variety of tea and will try to get a nice cheese selection for the party too. Please do not bring other pets to the party, nor any ham/pork products. There may be a few people who keep kosher at the party, and will likely be several non-KGBfolk as well.

People to bring:

Bring people who you think will fit in at the party (RSVP with them please!). Don't bring people who you do not think will fit. For the sake of avoiding unpleasantness, we will *not* be discussing Israel-Palestine *at all* during the party. Verboten. Not going there. Bring significant others!
