I told everyone who I knew to be coming that I would provide wine and water and anything else they wanted they should bring themselves. Seemed to have worked out for most people.
If I had liquor I totally would have served it. However, I try not to buy it because I'll just drink it. No, really. Given the nature of the drinks I like (appletinis, vanilla vodka and diet coke) it's way to easy to drink half of bottle of something and not even notice until I'm barfing my guts up the next morning. So, for the record, I wasn't being stingy with my stash. I just don't have one.
I blame myself and CB for being in the wrong state. Ifn' you Portlanders would be considerate and all move down here, we'll gladly spring for the heavy booze at all jyte events.

It worked for me...probably a little bit too much.
I should step in here for a second. Pixie wasn't complaining that there wasn't FREE liquor.
More like... "Damn, why didn't I bring any liquor? I don't really like wine and/or beer."
Thus all future Jyte meetups should be at my place. Did I mention my bar?
I require a rough location before I can vote up your claim CB.

Yeah yeah... I just don't like drinking that early in the day, and never when I drive.

This is mostly true.
Not going to happen. However, if I find myself in the Bay Area can I still hit you up for drinks?
Absolutely. I'll buy you a drink if you're down this way visiting.
This is mostly true.
Woot, Documentable evidence of someone offering me free booze!
This is mostly true.
"wine and beer are not enough options" -- true.
this implies that liquor should be served -- false.
