    Work is EVIL. I really need to win the lottery so I can quit and devote my life full-time to Star Wars! :D

    By the way, our next meeting is posted on the main Fanforce Page!

    ::pout:: I can't sew to save my life. That's OK though. I just want a cloak, that's all I want. :)
    Is anyone going to wear a costume to the meeting? I'll wear my Star Wars trousers and my Sith Academy t-shirt.

    Well....I wanted to wear my leia costume but I *really* don't think people outside of our group would understand in the least why a girl is walking around in such a strange outfit.....:eek: (hmm...i wonder why? its just a bikini top and a skirt with the sides completely cut off and held together by metal hooks ;) )
    But alas, I will probably be wearing a star wars shirt, and hopefully my ewoks skirt that I am currently working on. :D

    I found a room at Bellarmine College we can use, im still working out the details with the public relations persons there, but in Horigan Hall on the top floor there is room CC 124 The Cralle Lounge holds at least 30 people with a conference room CC126 right next door. It is a non-smoking facility, but there is a patio right outside the lounge area that is for smokers. Plus its air-conditioned. Once i get the final details ill post them here. I guess ill try to see if we can have the room for the August meeting. See ya obi-wan-bartak.

    The day of the next meeting there is a RiverBats game downtown at 6:15 PM, so there'll probably be lots of folks around downtown. Where's a good place to park? I've only been down there once before.

    Hey, gang! It's great that everything seems to be coming together. My fiance and I would love to make the meeting, but unfortunately, weekends for us are completely booked between now and the end of July. If anything changes, though, we'll be there! :D

    There are a couple of public parking lots around the park. There's one under the I-64 bridge. The entrance is on Preston Street before it curves round to become River Road. If you follow Preston around to River Road, there's another lot there. However, with a Bats game going on, spaces are likely to be at a premium. There's also parking on the opposite end of the park, near Joe's Crab Shack. I don't recall how much is public and how much is paid, but again, given the proximity to Slugger Field, it may be crowded. There's also a pay lot across the street from Slugger Field, and possibly some of the garages would be open, too.

    Thanks! I think I saw somewhere that there's a special edition of Hardware Wars, but I haven't been able to view it. Princess Android is pretty cool, too! :)

    I hate to mention this, but I thought everyone might want to know, there is a lot of stuff going on at Waterfront park that weekend. Not only is there a Bats game, but there is also Pirates on the Waterfront (noon to 5 p.m.) and Operation Brightside Volleyball tournaments.

    There will probably be plenty of room for us to gather and hang out, but parking may be a issue. I'd hate to have some of us pass on the meeting because of it.

    Any thoughts from the rest of you?

    ICK. That's what I was afraid of. Man, I hate parking in downtown Louisville.

    I don't think I even want to know what that Pirates thing is about. :)

    Why not do the Cherokee park again?

    It would solve the problem of crowds as the rest of the city will be downtown from the looks of it!

    Would anyone be interested in a lunch meeting in addition to the weekend night meetings you have had and are discussing. Some of us have work schedules or other commitments that prevent meeting in the evening.

    We could meet and different locations around town on a regular basis eat lunch and talk Star Wars.

    Any interest??

    I wouldn't mind meeting anyone at any time when it comes to star wars!

    And maybe we should consider Cherokee Park again...we at least all know where to go, and parking isn't a problem. And we still have plenty of time to change the location...

    YEa, I was just thinking about that waterfront thing again, and I am almost POSITIVE that parking will be a problem, the good thing is, Cherokee probably wont be as bad, since 4th of July will be over with and all......I think cherokee would be better, because no matter what, if we meet at the riverfront, we will all have to pay for parking, and I know that I cant really afford it :( **sigh**
    But......i guess we should all cast a vote on this.

    The meeting is officially at Cherokee now, right? LOL! Just wanting to check. I think it's the best because of the crowding at the waterfront that weekend. :(
    Oh, and I'm BROKE too, Zam, so it's cool. I'm all in favour of free stuff. The free-er the better. LOL

    I've been in Chicago since Thursday for the WizardWorld convention. It was pretty cool, but I was there mostly for "TransFormers" stuff rather than "Star Wars." Parks Sabres was there with a booth... man, how do they NOT get sued by Lucas? Oh well...

    So, the meeting has been moved to Cherokee Park, is that right? If so I need to change it on the website, I guess. Cherokee Park, same place as last time, on Saturday, July 20, at 7:00 PM? Is that right?

    Man, we have *GOT* to find some indoors place to hold regular meetings at so we don't have to go through this each time.
