Read, PA Monthly Meetings & Information

Yeah, I am ok with meeting up online or something like that.

-x

 

I'll do a cyber-meeting. I feel bad that the meeting was cancelled, but this pool is taking forever.

 

How bout we meet up around 12 midnight Saturday? Late night chat for a bit?

Everyone & anyone is invited!

I need AOL IMs for the Chat Invites. Just PM me your AOL IM..

 

What date are we looking at for the next meeting?

-x

 

Sorry for the silence.. I'm in the home stretch of my degree (finish in October) & I had to take a summer course in addition to the courses I already have.. Although it's a Philosophy Course, so it's pretty cool

Anyways.. Date wise, I'm thinking Saturday, July 14th..

What is the movie of choice?

 

We can try Harry Potter or Transformers.

 

I vote for Transformers, mainly because I'll probably see Harry Potter with my daughter.

 

I'm voting for Harry Potter. I'm going with the kids on the 4th for Transformers, and I don't think I could watch it twice. I might be forced to shoot myself.

 

Chris..? Gia..?

 

well I vote Potter because that will be my first chance to see it...
though I did have a dream that Transformers is really good I just don't trust that nonsense.

 

You should really follow your dreams, Gia! lol

Ok, I sould like an afterschool special...

I guess Harry Potter it is.. YOu guys know it will be packed.. I think this is the second weekend of Harry Potter.. We should probably meet early at teh movies, pick up tickets & then go grab a bit to eat..

 

Sounds like a plan. I think the 14th will be the first weekend actually, but I could be wrong.

 

Can anyone do the 15th instead of the 14th? I'm getting sucked into a trip to Hershey Park on the Saturday.. & I don't want to postpone the Meeting.

 

I could do the 15th.

 

I will check and get back to you.

Would the 22nd or 29th be better?

My Saturdays are booked for the month, but I don't start work until 8:00 PM on Sundays.. I would't mind going on the 29th & seeing Transformers.. My daughter gave me 'the look' when I told her I wasn't seeing Harry Potter with her..

Thoughts?

 

It looks like July is shot for us..

But..., I totally understand.. Since we are all adults with families, teh summer is the hardest time to get together. With summer 'to-do lists' & family vacations, summer time is sometime all we have. I value this reasons for delay and is a A LOT different than not being able to meet because of lack of interest. I know, that we are all still interested in keeping our group going.

That being said.. I'd like to lock in an August Meeting..

I was thinking for August:

Saturday, August 18th
PA Ren Faire!

Spoke with Stacy & he is good with that date.. In fact, he has NEVER been to the Ren Faire!

Gia, Chris, how bout you two? Can you folks make it?

 

Gia and I are coming and so is my wife and our kids, and a couple other friends from out of town. Stacy you still in? Steph any idea if you can come? This weekend is coming up fast... Just as a reminder we are talking about the 11th, Rob had mistyped the wrong weekend earlier.


-x

 

I'll be bringing the wife and kids. Chris, What time are you planning on getting there ? Just a ballpark time would be good.

 

Not sure what time the gates open, but probably a half hour before opening if possible.

I'm happy to hear that everyone had fn at the Ren faire! (Steph, I will have to drag you to the next meeting, lol)

Anyways, I'm going to update this with a date for the September Meeting sometime next week. I need to take a look at my game schedule (youth soccer coach), becuase I don't want any reason why I can't make it.

Any suggestions..? Any events or movie premiers in September?

 

Just a suggestion, what about The Bourne Ultimatum ?

 

How are we looking for September? The boards (both) are a bit slow.. Are we busy with RL?
