Celebrate the TLF’s Fifth Anniversary: D.C. Happy Hour 8/14
by Berin Szoka on August 7, 2009 · 1 comment
Five years ago, we started the TLF to report on—and hopefully help to reverse—this dangerous trend of over-regulation of the Internet, communications, media and high-technology in general. We’ve become a full-service technology policy blog that covers complete gamut of public policy issues affecting the future of the Internet and technology.
Please join us as we celebrate, commiserate and plan for the next five years of fighting the good cyber-libertarian fight. We’ll even through in a free TLF laptop sticker! Just RSVP on Facebook today!
RocketBar will be offering the following drink specials:
- $3 PBR cans,
- $5 Rail Cocktails,
- $5 House Wine and
- $4.50 Miller High Life 16oz cans.
They have a wide variety of games, so you can get your pool/shuffleboard/darts/Risk/Trivial Pursuit on.
Please spread the word about the event to your friends and, if you haven’t already done so, become a fan of our Facebook page!
