If you’re in the area, give some thought to spending the evening with the Philadelphia chapter of Drinking Liberally. The group’s regular and extremely relaxed gathering is tomorrow at Ten Stone, 21st and South Streets, Philadelphia, beginning at 6:00 p.m.

I understand Chuck Pennacchio, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, is planning to attend, providing a great opportunity to meet and speak with a future senator in an unusually relaxing environment.

[Post-publication addendum (June 21): Peter Baker of D.L.P. writes in an e-mail distributed this morning: “Drinking Liberally - Philadelphia welcomes Chuck Pennacchio, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, this Tuesday. He plans to arrive around 6 p.m., so get there early. Come with questions for Chuck; he’s looking forward to hearing from us. . . . I’ve heard from a number of people who aren’t ‘regulars’ that they’ve stopped by on Tuesday night, but don’t know who we are, where to sit, etc. I understand the confused looks you get when you ask strangers, ‘Are you Drinking Liberally?’ No sweat. Feel free to ask the staff at Ten Stone where the Drinking Liberals are; we've been there every Tuesday for about 8 months, so they know us! Several of us also wear our Official Drinking Liberally Buttons, so look for that too.”]
