    OK, guys! We said that we were going to start meeting up online on Thursdays at 9:30 eastern. Did we still want to do that? Because it's been a couple of weeks and it's not happening! :D

    I'll be online tomorrow evening--what about you?? [face_thinking]

    In my defense, I forgot. No wait... that's no good. Uh... well... last week was Thanksgiving? Yeah, that's it!

    I can be there tomorrow night. I'll remind myself.

    Yeah, yeah... I know.. (slapping the side of the computer). Where's the alarm clock on this thing? Just call me at home if I'm not on by 9:30. heh... That's pretty funny. Call me so I can go online to chat. What is this world coming to? Technology. Bah! No... I'm certainly not one of those people who thinks they were born in the wrong time. I would absolutly hate it if I was around in the 1800's or something like that. If anything, I'd like to hop around in the future. If cryogenics ever really take off, I can see myself getting the deep freeze. I still tell my wife that when I die, I'd like to be cremated and have my ashes put on a rocket and sent off into space. They really do that! Quit rolling your eyes. Is it time to go home yet? How off-topic can I get? LOL.

    I guess it's b/c I'm such a sci-fi freak, but I am constantly frustrated with the limits of our technology. Why isn't my pc more interactive? Why can't I say, "computer" and it respond with some intelligence, give me a diagnostic, and fix itself? Why don't I have flemsiplast instead of paper? Datapads instead of....everything else?? I want one of those cool holo terminals--and a comlink instead of a cell phone!

    It's off the thread topic, but Vesper brought it up!! points and sticks out tongue


    I'm sure we can find ways to properly motivate you to be there, Vesper....mwahahahaha!

    The Thursday Night Online meetings are on AOL'S Instant Messenger-log into that, and you'll be invited to join our "private chat"--please be sure to provide your AIM ScreenName if you haven't done this before, (via PM if you want) so we can be sure to see you when you log in! :)

    To recap:

    The December meeting will be on Thursday, Dec 16th at the Red Lobster near Hamilton Place Mall at 7:00pm. A $20 (more or less) gift exchange will take place for those interested in participating.

    Layren and SarkaVrae have been nominated in several categories in the FanFiction awards (see other thread about this). Congrats!

    Monday seems to be the best day of the week to hold monthly meetings to where we could get as many people as possible. We'll talk more at the December meeting to finalize things, but it's looking like the January meeting (and months after) will be held on a Monday.

    DrthMrl seems to have computer problems (lol).

    Vesper2112 (with his trusty coke-soaked but never-say-die digital camera) can be the official photographer until someone with a better camera comes along.

    I think that was about it.

    you are great, Vesper! That recap really did cover it all (and I like how you diplomatically left out the part where Layren and I harrassed you...). hehehe....

    LOL... yeah, I originally had something about the harrasment in there, but thought I'd better make the minutes more "matter of fact" like. Awww heck, truth be told, THEY TWISTED MY ARM! They made me do it! I swear! I cannot be silent any longer! No matter what they have on me. Actually, to get this all behind me right now, I'd like to state for the record that yes... I once had a tattoo of Wicket, but I was young, foolish... I didn't know what I was doing! I had it removed, however. Now I have a wonderful portrait of Jar Jar in it's place. Whew! No that it's out in the open, I can relax once again... huh? No one likes Jar Jar... oh crap.

    fragglesnoot? Oh, you have GOT to use that one. LOL. We'll be watchin for ya on Thursday then. I'm sorry you'll miss the December meeting. This month seems to not be cooperating for most people when it comes to free time (gee... wonder why). Will you be around in January?

    tomorrow night, guys! 9:30 eastern time--who's going to be online in AIM?? :)

    next Thursday, we will have our December meeting at Red Lobster (btw--can someone tell me where that is?) at 7(?)!! Sorry you won't be there Sha, we'll miss you!


    has anyone found any comic/game stores or other places that we could use as a meeting place for "game nights"? I was thinking about asking a guy I know downtown--he owns/runs Shapiros Deli on Cherry street--is that central enough? Lemme know! :D

    I'll be on tomorrow night. I'll also be solo for the meeting (there ended up being 3 events going on that same day that all popped up after we decided it). Anyway, put me down for 1. The Red Lobster is near Hamilton Place Mall. If you know where Toys R Us, the Olive Garden, and the Outback is, you're real close.

    Sarka... I don't know where that deli is, but I'm sure I could find it.

    How does a non AOL guy find you online?

    (I know I asked this during the meeting) but I slept once or twice since then... ;)
