Hey there...

happy 2008! I appologize for the late posting but I have been out of town and super busy of late. I had told maria that I would try to organize the next event meetup. Apparently tony requested fri 1/18...

***UPDATE... (Took me forever, I know)

We're set for a party of 20 in the Vegas room (back area)... I'll adjust the number as people confirm

    I hear Distantsun loves meetups.
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    good start with the choice of location. that's a good place with a nice room in the back.

    I am definitely going to try to make this (I know if Maria is reading this she is saying "yeah right!!"). I have missed them all due to circumstances beyond my control, but I will definitely try to make it. Should be fun!

    If you need any help planning/organizing, let me know. Hope you had a great trip!
  • decides2dreamdecides2dream Posts: 14,977
    i'm in! :)
    well, i am 98% in. haha. the only thing that may keep me out this time, my dad-in-law's 85th birthday! :eek: can't exactly miss that, and his birthday is that weekend, unsure when the celebration will be though. should know soon enough, and hopefully friay will be free...so then, i'm in. :D



    btw - same time as last? 8 pm?



    also - do please mark your calendars. jumping ahead a bit here, but february 22nd - be there! where, i don't know....we have to decide where, haha. however, catefrancis will be visiting NYC for the very first time, up from oz no less....so i hope we can get together a NYC crew for her visit.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    me too. but that's a really good spot, plus the music isn't blasting so you can actually hear the conversation.

    Will be there, on the 18th and Feb. 22nd, unless something catastrophic comes up.

    This means distantsun won't come, but then again you are better off with me.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    Didn't realize it's MLK weekend, and we'll be out of town.
    Definitely for February, though!

    Count me in! :D

    Though may I suggest that perhaps a call should be made to the bar and see if we can reserve something in that back room or a few tables in the front just in case we get a good turnout for this? I only bring it up because it does get crowded there especially if there is college sports on.

    i think so. we're already a good #, about 8 - 11 people even w/o meme.

    would help if sam would keep count in the first post ;)...hahaha...but just to start:

    sam
    xavier
    jose
    soujiro_seta
    since i fell apart & tony?
    dream
    jenfarr
    jwmcc

    maybes
    jim29nyli
    edvedder913
    pjbiz



    so 8 - 12 maybe......decent turnout. in the past, most NYC meets were about 8-10 people, and we always had a blast. still haven't seen MHB, robek, etc post yet either....so we shall see. can always postpone if you think not a good turnout? but i think not bad at all. also, if we do go around 8, shouldn't we be ok? sam should be better able to answer that since he chose the place, but yea...i don't want to try and claim too much space since i doubt we'll be as big a group as last time - 20 people! - that was highly unusual.


    yea....where's screamer, carin, mauichick, etc....? still other to post yet hopefully.

    I sorted everything out that I had to, so I should be a definite.

    I don't think we need to reserve any space. It's a huge place and if it's 8-10 people we should have no problem. I cannot believe I missed the 20 person turnout! what a bummer.
