Hou, TX May meeting

I am starting to look at dates in May. For me, the last Sat looks like the only free evening I get in May. The 24th is out for me due to vacation. Ruban, Hope we can get you back out with us again.

David
Soon to be Sev.

 

Sorry guys, unable to make it that late in May! I'll be leaving on the 17th and won't be back til almost mid June. Damn the bad luck! Looked forward to them taters too!

 

I can't make it on the 31st or the 24th.

I might be able to do the 17th though.

Anybody else have a preference?

 

I'm out of town on the 31st, so that's definitely out for me. But I may have problems with the others, too, so I'll be pretty wishy washy this month.

 

Lets start thinking about June then. I will be at a different store and will have to wait and see what kind of schedule I will be working.

David

 

17th and the 24 can be god for me. I'm on vacation and my wife is home, so i can actually escape for a bit.

 

It looks like people are pretty scattered in terms of when they can come this month.

Can we maybe throw up some dates and have everyone vote on them?

If just two people show up to a meeting, well, there've been some meetings were that's already happened. So we don't have anything to lose.

 

Just looking at the posts some have left it looks like the 17th is the day. But its also just 1 day away, and if any of you guys are like me, you dont check this forum every day. But i vote for the 17th.... but if that dosent work out... then I vote for the 24th

 

OK, here's what I've got so far

May 17 - erikstormtrooper, skoedaddy, DarthElizur(?)
May 24 - skoedaddy, DarthElizur(?)
May 31 - StormMoose

May 17 (tomorrow) is possible, but I wonder if that's too last-minute. If anyone else can vote, it would sure make things easier.

 

I am moving to a new house and have been quite busy with that. Since we have a truck rented for the 24th, that day is right out for me. If you guys convene tomorrow, I may be able to come by depending on how much we get done. I'm certain I could use a coulpa cold ones and a burger.

 

I will be at an armor party most of the 24th but might be able to make it for a while. This Sat is out for me. I am closing manager. I am being transfered to 59& gessner.I do not know how my new boss will work with me about Saturdays.

David

 

I vote 17th. My wife is having a girls night tonight so I'm good for tomorrow.

Also, if David isn't coming then I guess we won't do his question. Although I think I have a good answer that I bet nobody else picks!

 

Updated votes:

May 17 - erikstormtrooper, skoedaddy, DarthElizur, TI1420(?)
May 24 - skoedaddy
May 31 - StormMoose

At this point the 17th is looking like the best date, unless some more people would like to vote.

David, I'm sorry you can't make it. Since I first started going to the meetings in July of last year, I think you're the only person who's made it to every meeting. Good luck at the new Boot Town location! We'll have a toast in your honor.

 

The 17th is a no-go for me. I have an AC repair issue in the morning, then a D&D game for most of the afternoon.

Not real sure of the other dates though, so cant give a better answer =)

 

The store I am going to is a little closer and has working AC. I was looking forward to this.I was going to bring my SEV helmet. Have fun.

David

 

I plan on being at the Stag's Head at 6:00 tonight. See y'all there.

 

6:00. Sounds good.

Sorry to hear David and Dan can't make it. Have fun playing D&D, I haven't played that in 25 years. Oh wait we did try to play in college briefly.

Hopefully we'll get a forum lurker or two.

 

Running a bit late, but still going.

 

How'd the meeting go?

Sorry couldnt make this one. Had my answer to David's question ready to go to

 

It was just me and Jeff (DarthElizur). We had some good conversation and ended up staying till 9:40.

Jeff got there first at 6:00 and didn't have any Star Wars items on the table to attract attention (thereby saving him from getting funny looks from the wait staff or other customers). So he wasn't sure if anyone new had come in and not known he was with our Star Wars club. So if anyone new did come but didn't find us, PLEASE let us know.

I'm actually thinking about creating some kind of logo for our group. We can each print it out and bring it with us. That way, the first one there can put it on the table, and we'll always be able to find each other. What do y'all think?

And if some others want to get together later in the month, there's no rule that says we can only meet once a month. Actually, that would be kind of cool.

Later,
Erik

 

I think that would be a good idea.

 

It's true. I don't have any good items. Even if I did I think I'd be too self conscious to sit there alone with a Star Wars toy in a bar on Saturday night. Maybe next month I'll just mention what shirt I'll be wearing. Maybe I'll wear my green Mario mushroom shirt again.

I did just go down to Fry's and pick up two of the little mini lightsabers for $10 each. They are pretty nice! I guess seeing your cool saber made me want one, Erik, but these are quite small.

Erik it was nice talking with you and we'll see you next time and hopefully we can find a weekend that works better for other folks.

 

Damn ME and my inability to check this forum often enough!!!

 

Yes, curse your metal body.

You really should check more often, like every 10 minutes or so.



Sorry you weren't able to make it.
