It's time we start planning for our next meet & greet.
Our window of opportunity is only a couple days this year so that Tim can attend. We promised last year that we would schedule it so he could be there. The best days would be Sat Dec 26th or Sun Dec 27th. We could probably do Monday evening the 28th if need be, but weekends are usually best. Please post suggestions as to where you would like to meet. As usual, we will do a poll for time and place which I will put together once we get some suggestions on locations. I would like to start the poll in mid-November to allow us time to figure it out then notify the place we plan to attend so they can accommodate us. Personally, I wouldn't mind going to the new Hacienda. I haven't been there since the old place burned down. I know it's not a mom/pop place, but that's my suggestion. I also think Saturday evening would be a good time. Anyone else? Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind~Dr. Suess

I don't think I've voted yet, but I'm planning to come, depending on when the new niece/nephew enters the world.

North Pole to Ang - when do we decide this thing? If it ends up me drinking alone at the Ritz Klub it's NOT gonna be pretty.

Okay. It's the Ritz Club on Saturday the 26th, but we're tied for 6 or 7. Since Dave voted other I suggest he make the tie breaker.
Also, the poll is open till the 20th, so if anyone else would like to attend, please cast your vote. Plus, I'll need to know if there will be significant others attending so I have a better head count for when I call.

I am REALLY pushing for 6pm as I have another engagement that night - as many may have. 7 can work, but will shorten my end time a bit. No problem either way. I see ChickenCityRoller wants to start drinking at 1PM - YEAH!
Though I'll be in a festive mood, I can assure all I won't be going for any of that don we now our gay apperal crap! Attached image(s) |

It's only gay if the butt cheeks are missing from the leather pants.

I want to come, but I will be working that weekend. If it's held at Ryan's, I can at least stop by and say hi to everyone!

Hmmm - this thread seems to have gone all Brittany Murphy. So - I'll be at the Ritz Klub on Saturday at 6pm. Hope to see some of you there! I leave on Wednesday. After I land at LAX my first stop is the Enterprise Rental counter - wher the same exchange occurs every time I'm there.
Sales person: Did you have a reservation? Me: Yes - but I came anyway. I'm sure they've never heard that. |

LAX? You drive here from Los Angeles?? Good one! Except you should end that with "I'm here all week - try the veal!" I land in Los Angeles at about 9AM - grab a rental car - go to Hollywood for lunch with former co-workers - go up to Santa Clarita to see if my condo looks any smaller now that its value has... diminished - back to Burbank for a wine and filet mignon event with other pals - a dash back to LAX to catch the red-eye to Chicago. |

I called the Ritz Klub today and he's not sure if he'll be open Saturday. I told him we had a party of 15-20 people planning to come there. Told him about the message board and that it would be good for his business. He said to call back tomorrow at 11. So, I will let ya'll know tomorrow if we're on for the Ritz. In the meantime, I suggest we think of an alternative location--Just in case.
My recommendation would be the new bowling alley perhaps? We don't have to bowl (especially since I totally create a vacuum at it ). But I'm sure there is a bar and some food. Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind~Dr. Suess

Wait - poll's tied! Wasn't someone going to not come if we do Ryan's? If so I'll leave it to everyone as I'm traveling but will be online once I hit MC. See you all soon!

Not sure they'd be open? Boo!
I'm cool with either Ryan's or the new bowling alley as an alternative. Or basically anywhere else. |
