Ducati Monster Forum

LMT and I thought we'd throw out the suggestion of having our own DMF zoom video chat / call / face-to-face DMF torment.  Also in part, to help Monsterlover's zoom skills so he can crush his upcoming client call.

Would Saturday work for those who are interested? 

Is there a best time of day or evening to include some of those on other continents?

If you're in, PM me your email address and I'll set it up for whenever it happens.  Or PM me after the date/time is confirmed.  Whenever.

 [bacon] [beer]

Me laptop no camera has

You can still join but it would just be audio

ok, Sat 11th?

This is an awesome idea!

After 7pm right coast time.

Right now I have no life outside of work! Any time is good. Diva aren't you one the right coast?

she's drunk or was looking towards Mexico

?Que?    East coast = right coast   

read what Diva wrote

Use your phone.

Depending on the time, could work for Dustykitska & I.  PM sent

Why me no think of this . . . You rock Sir  ;D

Because you're too busy thinking about food. :-*

Not really, but, yes

..getting a little too late for me... I'm 5 hours ahead of RCT... 

We won't obviously all be able to join for those who want to but any chance to do this Saturday morning?

I can at any time . . . think got the laptop cam to work, think

zoom downloaded, call sign, my nickname here

Carlos, PM me your email please



For anyone else interested:

This call is scheduled for 11am eastern on Saturday, tomorrow, 4/11.

FYI...the free Zoom platform limits meetings to 40 minutes.

Correct.   The last few calls I've been on under the free service (unlike the first few calls), far exceeded the 40 minutes with a message that they were feeling generous.      Maybe we'll get lucky again, maybe not.    I'll mention it at the start.

 [beer]

If you set it up as a recurring meeting, you can just open it again and people can log back in.

Maybe on a weekend they'll let it slide.

Zeke's schooling is via Zoom now, but educators are allowed unlimited time.

Good idea.  I'll do that.  [thumbsup]

It'll take a new link...

How did I miss this thread?  I've been assured by Mrs ML that she can make the Linux client for this work. Link me.

ML:  I sent you the link based on the email you have listed in your DMF profile.

See you in the morning  :)

That's a big 10-4

...well that was fun... although I wish Cindy woulda stopped talkin'  ;D

[laugh]

Yeah she never shuts up

[laugh]

Great seeing everyone.

Agreed. 

I'll look forward to the next one.  And maybe i can convince my pup to pull himself away from the sun beam and sit near me for a minute to join.   

I don't know...sunbeams have a lot of extra gravity. Just ask either of my cats.

Dustykitska & I had a great time seeing/meeting our DMF friends!!

Thanks for doing this Stella.  [bacon]

So...when is the next one?

[popcorn]

Other than a few conference calls this coming Wednesday, I'm wide open.   [thumbsup] [thumbsdown]

I'm free most afternoons.

One this weekend?

Sunday?

Count me in!

Stella may be passed out currently: http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=406.msg1433787#msg1433787

[laugh]

Count me in for any day, can't leave house

You get to set up the next call, mister.

 ;)

Sunday works.

I should be around unless I get a wild hair and decide to work on the theater and bar some more...been making good progress this week on the theater.

Sometime today would be better, for me anyway.

It's snowing today, and we'll be hiking tomorrow.

We may be around.  Haven’t been privy to the plans for the weekend as I haven’t been here all week! LOL

...we arrive at a day and time?

Everybody's proposing but nobody is doing, I only have about 2 or 3 emails from members . . .

All you have to do is ask for emails....

OR people can just pm you their emails....


OR if all y'all want to chat... Sunday morning?  Saturday morning? I'll get it rolling.

Just give me a time, I'll convert to my time CET

Yep, anytime this weekend is good for me. Put me on the list please!

ML:  For some reason, I cannot find your email.  Will you please (re)send – pm here or that other social site.



If anyone would like to join the "Live TOSAT" Sunday morning at 11am eastern, please PM me your email address if you haven't seen the invite already.

His email is in his profile.

I forwarded the invite to ung.

Received.  I should be on.

Going to pass this round.  Thanks for setting this up

<taps mic> is this thing on?

I didn't screw up the day did I?

Just finished a few mins ago

Tried to join since 11, just said waiting for host to start the meeting :(

It gets a little funky sometimes.

You should have closed it and started it again.

We did that

Maybe you should get a computer-geek to move in with you  ;D

Well, to be fair, the "close and restart" idea was hers ;D

Then, I blame Polly. ;D

[laugh]

Next time

I slept in.

I had trouble with it too, but I think it was more this Mac related

Fair and accurate.   As I sat on my family's zoom to start last night (that I set up the same time as ours) – it did the same thing "waiting for host to start".

Apologies.   Two zoom accounts, two meetings set, two screw ups (sent my sister the wrong link too).  I must not have had coffee when I did set them up. 

 ;D

[laugh]

Everything bad can be blamed on the existence of coffee.

you mean, on the lack of coffee . . .
I had my session started long before the time, prompt waiting for host, and then BOOM, stella was in my screen

She sent you the good link because she wanted to talk to you ;D

Lack of coffee goes right back to the existence of coffee. If you never start down that road you never need it to function ;D

You should never attempt to do anything besides peeing before that first morning coffee.

I wouldn't know how that works. The coffee I mean. I've known how to pee for, well forever.

From an ex coffee drinker...

not that hard.

Cigarettes are way make the beast with two backsing harder...just sayin'

I opted on being too lazy to make myself presentable for the last call.

Will try harder next time.

maybe

I don't think you have much to worry about. I've seen you create your own language, that you understood [laugh]

Only happened once.  Allegedly.

I think.

 ;)

Allegedly? [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

Bullshit.

I'll give you once. :-*

There's chatter offline about having another zoom with those here who are interested.


Raise your hand if this Friday evening sounds like a barrel of drunk monkeys to you and you'd like to join.

Exact time TBD. 

Possibly as soon as LMT on the left coast can join the east coasters without it interrupting some of our bedtimes.    ;)

Mr and Mrs Monsterlover are in!

I'm in but, depending on time, I may be drunk...shocking, I know. :-*

In!

 [beer]

I don't work (much) on Fridays.  Any time is good with me.

Maybe

I'm in - although your Friday evening may be past my bedtime?

I'm done working at 5PM CST.

Not sure what everyone else's schedules are, but I'm sensing virtual happy hour (sans LMT).  [drink]

I've tasked Stu with his first pro bono job of creating this "meeting".   Stay tuned.

 :)

Suck it up, buttercup. :-*

Challenge accepted  [evil]

could be quite ... messy by that time in the evening though 

I'm in for Friday evening.

It can be messy for me after 5:30. [laugh]

Ok.  This may change things some:

Dustykitska & I have a chance to get vaccines on Friday evening right around the time we were going to host this Doom thingy.  So, that kinda changes our hosting as we may need to leave early or cut it short.

So, someone else will have to host or we can host it later.  Plz advise...

I'll do it.

I don't want to post a link on the forum for the world to see, so pm me to get the link. Include a preferred time, and I'll average things out between time zones from those interested.

I'll post the time in this thread.

I was just setting up a meeting for us and popped on here to see who's emails I had and saw this.  Since you're now driving the bus, Painter, I'll not interrupt.

I'll dm you now, thanks!  [beer]

As anticipated, there's a wide dichotomy in preferred times, I think due to the fact that it's a work day for some.

Before I piss everyone off  [evil]...what do you all think about tomorrow afternoon?

works for me!

Also works here.

Let's do it!  If I can't make it, next time.

Works for me  [thumbsup]   

since when did you care about pissing people off?   ;D

I've grown kinder, and gentler, in my old age. [roll]

I'm good with this.   [thumbsup]

Wife and I will be at the shop :(

OK...not everyone has responded but, in light of the fact that this was originally set up for today, we'll do it today.

5 pm EST.

 [thumbsup]

I will try to be there here attend whatever.  My first Zoom experience.

[thumbsup]

Not good for me, tomorrow.  :(

Next time.

L...it's tonight.

Clearly confused.   [bang]

FYI:  as I've shared with a few other friends that I've "zoomed" with – my dad's smaller place is very quiet so I'm a bit more low key than usual.  That's all.   [beer]

Stupid meeting ran way long...

Sorry I missed it.

Catch ya all next time.

 [beer]

Was great seeing quite few of you!    [beer]

 [shot]










 [wasn't]

[beer]

Fantastic time on Doom.  "till we meet again [beer]

It was kinda like DIMBY.

I feel just that way this morning.

Sorry we missed this one.  But one of us got our first shot so that was worth it!

... feeling it too  :-\ ;D

It's almost 4 pm and I'm finally coming around. :P

So pretty well like a dimby then [beer]

ha.  nice work!   [beer]   

My dad got a kick out of saying hi to everyone and listening and laughing at the comments.

 :)

Your dad is welcome to join in next time :)

Yup.

Coming up on a year since we our first one.

Shall we do another?

You missed the last one. I didn't even get there when it started and I hung out for 5 hours.  Much drinking and laughing occurred.

No reason it can't again.

Been a while since I woke up feeling sorry for myself..... so yup, I'm in  ;D

I think that pesky thing called work got in the way...

I'm in, but Steve gets no booze cuz he likes to steal it from the elderly. :-*

Somehow I missed the first go round? I'm in.

Lets do it!

I just ask innocent questions  ;D


I think you'll find it's ML who confessed to stealing grog from his elders.

That may be, but you pointed fingers. :P

I'd like to join in. As I'm fully Zoom-appropriate, I'll wear pants. I'd wear a kilt, but I'd have to buy a kilt first.

Let's pick a day/time.

I'll host. Once we pick a time, pm me, and I'll send you all the link.

This Friday maybe?

Sounds good to me

Will likely work for me.

Wife is getting her second COVID shot on Friday so I am entertaining myself Friday night.

If you want me, I will appear with me and my 10 cats...well 8 of the 10 because 2 of them have severe social anxiety and I would really prefer not to be peed on...

So.... tomorrow then?  How about 3pm eastern??   ;D ;D

Works for me. We'll be junk by the time the rest show up.

I'm in!

I work until 4:30P CDT tomorrow. 

So available anytime after that.

[evil] [shot]

Nah, but seriously, pick a time that suits the majority and I'll fit in with whatever goes....  [thumbsup]

So, we have 3 or 4 time zones represented. Not easy to pick a time that fits everyone.

I'll start the meeting at 5 pm eastern. Join in when you can. We'll be there most of the night.

PM me for the link.

Tonight?  As in now?

Yup.

I PMed for the link.....  um...  ???

Hellllloooooo  :P

Sorry guys. Ophthalmologist called and said they could get me in and I jumped on it.  :-\

How did the opthalmologist feel about that?

 [bang]

Was the highlight of my day.  Good to see the mugs that showed up.

 [thumbsup]

Nice to catch up with the usual suspects ... nice to finally 'meet' triangleforge too  [thumbsup]  Great company as always, sorry I had to quit early but family commitments meant that I reserve lack of sobriety for 24 hours  [beer]

See you next time howie ;-)

That was fun! Great to put some faces and voices with characters who've been good friends of mine for what, a decade or more?

Right?!?  Was the first dimby in 2008?  When did the forum first kick off?  It's been a while for sure [thumbsup]

I was on the forum back before it was on the internet! It was all email.  Back in the year 2000!

I think I jumped on TOB back in 2005 or thereabouts when I bought my first Ducati. 2000 m900ie.

Ah, the old board.  I was there for a long time.  Great seeing everyone even though no one could see me.

Yes, 2008. We have had 12 events, so far because we had two one year.

We'll do it again.

Whenever it becomes possible.... if you'll cope with a return visit.... I'll be there  [thumbsup]

I'll bring the gin  ;D

...and you can have it all.

I'll drink your share of the whisky. :P

I can help with gin.

I can help with both [shot]

You guys are generous like that.  [shot]

Nate, let us know if Zoom is an option when you're on "vacation" at any point.   Will maybe help the time pass...

 [thumbsup]

We'll see how I feel. Right now it's all fun and games. I suspect that will change.

Time for another?

I'm up for it.

I'll try to remember to check back here to see what you all planned.  Maybe send me message when it's figured out but would be fun to see everyone again.  And if it's next week, maybe I'll have my dad join again.  He enjoyed sitting in on the one we had this past winter.   [thumbsup]

I won't have reliable wifi after tomorrow evening for about a week.

Headed west.

I'm in!

Home for a while after a spell of touring around... so timezone permitting.... I'm in too [drink]

Car touring, or moto?

Yes  ;D 

Obtuse. :-* ;D

I'm back. Pretty much any day around 5 edt works for me.

I started a poll. Majority wins.

I'll host. PM if you need the link.

I'm off on Thursdays & Fridays and would love to join in again.

Need more votes.

No worries I'll vote some more times  ;D

Try it... :-*

I voterated.

Ideally I won't miss it this time  :P

I didn't vote, but if the Doom is going to be 5ish, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday would probably work for me.

Voting was overwhelmingly in favor of Friday night.

Tomorrow, or next week?

Won't work for me :(

Tonight... or in a week...  either work for me.

OK...next Friday evening 5 pm edt.

Noted.  May still be working but will try to ward off any late afternoon meetings if it can be helped.

Got it on my calendar; 2pm in AZ, check.

See you all then!

Wait...Randy's gonna be there??  [puke]   [cheeky] [cheeky]

I started the warm up  [drink]  ;D

That's a heckuva head start!  [beer]

Anyone need the link?

Is it a new one?

I'll be a bit late...have a daily team meeting (usually worthless) at 4PM every day  [roll]

Nope...should be the same.

Good chatting tonight.

Catch ya next time!

 [beer]

Good, but brief (on my part) chat with you guys.  Always good to actually see you – especially since I see hardly anyone these days. 

 [beer]

Sorry I missed out. Yesterday was a long, late day.

Great to see you guys  [beer] - pity there were so few of us this outing.

Apparently allowing democracy to determine what day/time we do things things was a failure.  I propose we return to the autocratic model where the politburo of usual suspects will determine the day and time (one that suits howie  :D) and y'all can join in or not  :-*

I miss you all.  Next time.  Soon I hope!

Let's do it again, soon.

Sorry I missed out! We started setting a pedestal for our new rain tank (we already collect lots of rain, but this is step one toward turning it into drinking water) and my timing was way off - 2 p.m. Arizona time rolled around and I was looking at a nearly full wheelbarrow of wet mortar that wasn't going to wait for me to go have fun for a bit...

I'll try to do better next time!

OK... Saturday evening anyone?

5 pm est.

Works for me.

The Stu & Ro sendoff edition?

Should work!

I should be able to attend!

Works for me  [beer]

I'll be working, but barring some crisis should be able to pop in and wave hello. Is it the same link as a couple of times ago?

 [beer] [thumbsup]

Sorry Carlos. This is a dry zoom meeting.

Jeez I can't even type that with a straight face...

:'(

Yes

I need the link.

Sent

Thank you!

I'm in! link please  [beer]

Sent

Might as well send it to me to, in case I can't find the original

WTF is everyone?

Nice chatting with everyone.

This is the accident I was talking about:

https://texasislife.com/texans/texas-paramedic-survived-his-vehicle-being-crushed-by-a-semi-crawled-out-and-started-helping-others-in-huge-i-35-pileup/

Good seeing you Randy.  Holy moly that thing is slagged.  It's hard for me to believe he walked away from that and was in good enough shape to help others!  That's crazy.

Great to see you guys again  [beer]

Nice seeing you all.

Here's the video of him getting hit.  Someone was looking out for him that morning.

https://youtu.be/k0_1EV1GXMw?t=60

Great seeing everyone!

That was fun! Kevin -- looks like I had to sign off before you joined. Sorry I missed ya.

Next time!

Sorry to miss this one but girlfriends, wine, mountains, food, sun and snow beckoned.    [thumbsup]

....snow :o ?

Hey, was caught up until late night with an issue on a car I am helping a friend diagnose ...

At the end, after he has poured endless amounts of cash into it, it's the ECU ... And guess what, not available new, so he will take his chances on ebay ... 1988 FIAT Ritmo ABARTH 130TC

Time for another meet up.

Should I start a poll to decide what's best, or should I just skip the bullshit and make an executive decision?

Just go for it.

I'll promise to be there and forget all about it.

Again.  :P

Kidz... [roll]

If I did this, should I do like all work meetings, having myself muted and camera off while I watch random youtube videos?

Your choice.

you'd all not be boring though so that choice would not be the one made  [laugh]

FMD... has it been since Septemeber that we last did this??  :o

You already know the answer to that one.

 [laugh] [laugh]  [clap]

I'm in.  Just give me a day and time.

Day and time! Set it and tell us  [thumbsup]

Just do it!

Friday...2-11...5 pm..est

See you then, or not.

If anyone needs the link, let me know.

It's the same link, correct?

Yup

 [thumbsup]

I'll be a touch late.   But I'll be there!

In for the start of the call!  Thanks Nate!

I'll be there - more or less  ;D [shot]

waiting...patiently? ;D

Anyone need the link?

Forgot it was today.

You should hear me knocking on the door...

Shit! I totally forgot. Stupid work.

Crap! I'm sorry I missed this. I got home early for a change, sat down on the couch and woke up at like 9:30 last night. :P

I think we were still on at 9:30.

Apparently, in my drunken stupid the other night, I signed up for a zoom pro account to keep us from getting booted every 20 minutes.

So, rather than cancelling it, I'm going to host a meeting on the first Saturday of every month at 5:00 pm eastern.

pm me for the link, in case it's changed.

 [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

Nice

...but will you remember? :-*

My phone might

;D

It's the only way I can avoid CRS.

Just so everyone knows...I suspect that the link, and passcode are different.

PM me.

I am scheduled to be at a Pink Floyd laser spectacular or something of that nature in Downtown Holland, MI that evening.

I'll catch you at the next one.

Chicago thing I mentioned DOA.  :-\

Just so everyone knows...the link is different. PM for the new link.

Sorry, I know I am lost in space at times, when is this new meet?

Too tired to go back one page? I'm going to make you do it anyway :-* [evil]

https://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=78090.msg1456596#msg1456596

got it boss ...

you can send out a link for the meeting, could be easier ... just saying

Easier for who?

If people want to join, they just have to ask.  No big deal.

Just a reminder...this afternoon at 5.

Link is different. PM, or email, me for the link.

ETA...I think the old meeting ID and passcode may work also.

I'll give it another 10 mins, or so.

I'm signing in right now...

Looks like I'm late to the party and scared everyone away 😥

Alright, you know what?

I'm drinking without you guys.

 [shot] [drink] [wine]
 [bacon]

We were there. Sorry we missed you.

It just said it was waiting for you to start the meeting  ???

That's weird. Did you use the new link?

I never saw you waiting to enter.

That's probably why then. I didn't have a new link and saw your post about the old one working so I went with that. Pm new link please.

One of these days, I'll get the hang of these wacky new "Time Zones" or whatever they're calling them. I was at work, but had a few moments to myself and went looking for the new login info... at 5 pm Arizona time.  [bang]

We were still yammering at 9:00 pm est. [laugh]

I came late from bicycle shop ... One customer asked us to so something and suddenly he and wife showed up asking us to re-assemble since the wife had NOT authorized the expenditure of $450 to repaint the bicycle ...

A week from today...5pm est.

PM for the new link if you haven't already.

Technical and personnel (dog sitter) issues

I’ll try joining again in 30 ish minutes

(Not that anyone cares) 😂

Ummm...it's tomorrow. :-*

https://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=78090.msg1456596#msg1456596

Looks like I'll have to give this one a miss.... 

Don't do anything I wouldn't do  [evil]

I need an assistant  :P

 [beer]

Booooo...

See you tomorrow?

Not going to make it tonight.

I got busy mowing the yard, and forgot  [bang] [bang]

I'm going to miss the next one too!

Next one is due May 7?

Only if it's the first Saturday of the month. ;D

What time? 

Same time as always...5pm eastern

I won't be able to make this one.

Next time, friends

I set a reminder!

Are we running late?

..is there a new.. new link?

Something must have come up with Nate?

 [popcorn]

Waiting for zoom to start is better than painting spindles.  

Must have.

I may get back to a few chores before heading out. 
Remember Buckethead / James?  I live in his town now.  He has a few backyard parties. Today being one.  Could never get to them before.  Pulled pork, ribs, chicken, salmon, seafood boil….

I’ll need to work out tomorrow.  😉

Will catch the next zoom hopefully.   [beer]

I lost track of time....come on in.

Have to cancel for tomorrow night.

If anyone wants, we can do it next weekend. Let me know.

Please reschedule for next Saturday!

Consider it done! :-*

Just a quick reminder that we're on for tonight if anyone can make it.

Gonna have to give it a miss this time.  Already had friends around making me laugh and it hurts too much, so I can't let you bastards loose on me too.

I promise not to be the funniest guy in the room.

Weak.

I can't really say anything though.  My attendance is still TBD

I remember being in a similar situation.  Coughing, laughing, sneezing...no fun with busted ribs.

Nate, can you send me the new link?

Don't think it's changed, but...

incoming.

hola

Bueler?

See ya'll next month.

I forgot about the time change.

Was also out getting a covid test.  [bang]

Howie and I are here...

I don't seem to have the link  :P

We're on for this Saturday. [thumbsup]

I'm 50/50 at this point.  Not sure if I'm going on a spontaneous trip since I have a 4 day weekend.

No worries.

I think I've got the correct channel, but when's showtime again? 5 p.m. Eastern?

That's correct.

....see what I can muster....

I finally signed in on time!!!!

It's.....not Saturday.  :P

;D [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

..awake at 04:30 this morning... still dealing with concussion...  I need my sleep.

Have fun this evening, I just can't go the distance tonight.

We'll miss you.

Get some sleep.

Sorry to hear,to feeling better [beer]

Anyone going to join?

Me for a bit if it's still happening

I made it!  ;D

Good seeing you lot.

Great hanging out, as always

Nice seeing those that showed.

Sorry about the power issues, See you all next month, I hope.

Sorry I missed you guys this month.  Was driving back from Albuquerque.

Next time!

For those that participated last night, our 'pet' deer was here this morning with her fawn.

It was fun to watch.

Is it that time again?

Yup.

5 pm eastern.

Not feeling that great...probably a sinus infection.

I'm going to miss this episode.

Anyone else besides me and Howie?

Due to lack of participation, we'll be doing every other month.

Next meeting will be the first Saturday in October.

This Saturday...

anyone gonna show?

I'll try to be there  :)

I believe I can make it.

If I remember, I should be in.

I plan on being there.

I'll try to pop in as well :)

did I get the wrong day?

Obviously not. ;D

Great seeing Y'all last night.

Indeed!

Unusually civilised session too. 

Nice to catch up with everybody and to finally meet The Multiple Tractor Folk  [beer]

No one was totally pissed. ;D

Why I didn't join...  [shot]  [evil]

I considered it, but I prefer to wait until the kids are in bed.  :P

well poop.  Sorry to have missed this.


When's the next?

First Saturday in December.

This Saturday...5 pm EST.

On my calendar.

Good time to pregame for the B1G football championship between Michigan and Purdue.

Added to my calendar as well - Looks like it'll be a Zoom-y day for me!

[thumbsup]

So everyone knows...the meeting id is 907 690 2551

If anyone needs the passcode, or wants the invitation, pm me.

Pretty good turnout last evening  [thumbsup]   Great to be able to catch up with you guys again  [beer] [shot]

Great seeing everyone [beer]

Great turnout!

I'm a bit IZ_ this morning.

;D

Ya wuss.

This Saturday at 5 pm est if anyone's interested.

I may find myself in another part of the world. 

(I know I'm always in another part of the world, but I'll be in.... another... part of the world, so have to give this one a miss).   Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

Have we ever?

Is it even possible? ;D

There's a chance I'll be playing chauffeur to/from the airport (not a quick trip) but I have it in my calendar if I'm not behind the wheel.

I'm going to have to miss this one. Have some friends in from out of town and they're staying with us through tomorrow night. Going to smoke some ribs and drink some drinks.

It's a zoom party of one so far.  Where are all y'all?

I'm here too.

Maybe Nate went for a hike around Mt. Washington.....

(hopefully not) ;)


I'm going to log off and grab back onto the productivity roll that I'm on today.   Weather so good (finally - has been sub zero) that I detailed my truck this afternoon - washing off thousands of miles of dirt, road grime and who knows what other toxic debris.  She's auto show ready now.  [thumbsup]


Sorry to miss you Howie and anyone else who shows up! 

Keep safe and warm and hydrated!   [beer]

Logging off too.

i was napping

Sorry everyone. I failed.

My pipes burst, so....bit busy today.

Anyone interested for this Saturday?

I promise I won't space it out. ;D

I'm interested depending on the time zone thing. 

Depends if I have plans or not.

Started seeing a new lady a few weeks back...

Want to start earlier?

Yep!

It would always suit me to start earlier so I can roll into bed before my 3am  ;D

But.... I'm the time zone exception out of many.  So what suits the majority is probably how it should be.

Yep Howie would like it to start earlier too?

We've been jilted  :-*  ;D

Can you blame him?

 8)

On the other and...

he could bring her. [evil]

.... talking shite with us .... or a rendezvous with his new lady?

Hmmm... tough choices  :-\ ;D

Do we have a time yet?

We can try four, and see how it works out. I'll be watching MotoGP until then.

See you there  [beer]

Alrighty then.

okee dokee

Where is everyone?

I was napping.

Weak sauce.

Even us three old make the beast with two backsers could stay awake. ;D

Weak sauce my ass.  ;)  8)

Always enjoyable catching up with you young blokes  [beer] 

Indeed it is!

And I didn't need a nap :P

That was her response, not mine.  :P

I maintain...

weak.

This Saturday...5 pm edt.

Is there a phone-in option?   I'll be east bound, likely in Iowa on I-80.  Would be nice to hear the chatter while I drive.

Yes. I'll send you the info.

I have to miss this one. I've been granted unlimited access to a CNC plasma cutter this afternoon/evening and I can't pass it up.

I got home from office and fell asleep on the couch.  [bang]

oops... I completely forgot  :-[

Missed you, both..

Tonight is the scheduled meeting...anyone?

Guess not...maybe in October.

Reminder...this Saturday at 5pm.

Hope some of you can make it.

Bugger.  Gonna miss yet another one, other plans already made  :-\

I'm in.

Most likely in.

Nice 'seeing' everyone.

Napped thru DOOM :(

We missed you.

Can we do this months' Doom on Friday at 5?

I have to catch a flight early Sunday morning.

Friday is looking good for me  [thumbsup]

I can probably make that work

No reason that would not work for me.

Then we'll do it Friday.

I’m still free on Fridays!

 [thumbsup]

We're all ill here, so I'm out for tonight.

If you missed my beautiful face, rest assured I haven't changed.  :P

Anyone else bailing?
