Time for another meetup!

[GAspnes]

Okay. Now that spring actually seems to be here and hanging around, we should have another get-together. What's everyone doing this Saturday?

[katinmn]

1. I'm going to Hawaii!

I would hate to miss a DU meetup, but if you have one, have fun!

I'll help set up the next one.
:hi: Chip

[no name no slogan]

2. Saturday's okay, next week is much better... (nt)

[dflprincess]

3. Saturday works for me!

n/t

[indigo32]

4. I'm in for Sat

when and where?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

5. I'm going to be trying to make as many film festival films as possible,

but I'll need to take a break at some point. :-)

The dinner hour or shortly before would be good.

Have fun in Hawaii, katinmn! I spent two summer sessions at the University of Hawaii and had a great time on both occasions.

[katinmn]

8. Thanks. I was there two years ago for work and never saw much

of anything except the inside of the convention center.

I've been wanting to go back on a break. I'm definately going to go snorkeling and visit the rainforest.

Not looking forward to the long flight, though.

[KitchenWitch]

6. I may be able to make a meetup on Saturday

My health is starting to come back!

[GAspnes]

7. looks like a quorum

What's the best location & time for you, Lydia?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

9. Well, if I actually go to all the movies I have circled

I'll be getting out of a film at the Bell Museum at about 5PM. Anything on the #6 bus route would be fine--the U area, downtown, Uptown, Southdale... :-)

(I don't drive to the U, since I believe that driving to the U or to downtown Mpls is its own punishment.)

[Lydia Leftcoast]

10. I'm going to contact the other Minnesotans

even though this is short notice.

[Demrock6]

12. Thanks for the invite

But I am going to First Ave Saturday. Gotta little date before! So wish me luck, and you guys have a good time.

I will make one of these things sometime!

[bvar22]

11. I can make tomorrow,

but prefer a week from tomorrow.
Place and time?

woohoo aloha for katinmin!!!!
Can I go ?

[katinmn]

37. you betcha!

:hi:

[hermetic]

13. All this talk and PM's and no one

has yet mentioned where or when. I might could come, depending upon those things.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

14. Good point!

How about the dinner hour somewhere?

BTW, where is GAspnes? Is he being a hit-and-run poster? :-)

[Lydia Leftcoast]

15. At least I've notified all the Minnesotans I can find

:-)

[myrna minx]

18. Thanks for the heads-up Lydia.

I'm afraid that I can't make it this weekend, but I'll try to hook up with you all for the next time. :toast:

[SupormomFreeAtLast]

32. GAspnes had his vehicle stolen.

I think he's been a little busy in the past 24 hours.

[Worst Username Ever]

16. Too short notice, but thanks!

[chickenscratching]

17. i haven't had a chance

to really meet everyone in the mn forum on DU since i just joined a bit o' go.
i would really enjoy meeting you fellows.
you don't mind young'uns do you?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

19. We've had 'em as young as 16

If you're old enough to type and you can get to the meeting place, you're quite welcome!

[chickenscratching]

20. super

i hope i can see you all there!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

21. So who has suggestions for a place????

I'd like to leave that up to the people who've been around the Twin Cities longer than I have in recent years.

[chickenscratching]

22. how about.....

galactic pizza?
mmm...sooo tasty, and nice inside too!
and if you like cheese cake, they have stuff from muddy paws....the best...
ahhh
:popcorn:

[Lydia Leftcoast]

23. Ooh, that is an excellent idea for a meeting place

I was just there a couple of weeks ago. They're a nice progressive company.

What say you all?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

24. What say you all to Galactic Pizza near Lake and Lyndale?

If GAspnes isn't going to step up and name a venue, I guess I have to take the initiative.

They're a progressive company, veggie and vegan-friendly, and they deliver their pizzas by bicycle. Now how swell is that?

[chickenscratching]

25. and don't forget!!!

they deliver in super duper outfits:

[lakeguy]

26. Sounds like fun but I'm going to miss this one

got plans already:(

[dpbrown]

27. I may be able to make it tomorrow

And of course, we should have another gathering with more notice.

Great idea!

DPB

[katinmn]

36. I hate to miss a gathering but will help organize the next one.

I'm still pushing for instituting a monthly DU meeting. We really get a lot done!

[bvar22]

28. Love it...early or late?

6PM?

[dodger501]

29. Let's do it another weekend

We need to maximize turnout for these.

[SupormomFreeAtLast]

30. Galactic Pizza 6pm?

Count me in! Can't wait to see everyone again.

[dpbrown]

31. Sounds good to me!

I can't wait to catch up with everybody.

DPB

[Lydia Leftcoast]

35. I can be there!

:hi:

It's been too long, especially since I missed the meeting that was immortalized in the wonderful "finger photo."

[Deja Q]

33. Need to give a rain check.

Hopefully I've not made too many enemies on DU and people can tolerate a social toad... but given my restrictions in driving (recovering from surgery...) I must pass this time.

But hopefully for the next and, again, if I'm not untolerable... :-)

[katinmn]

38. There are a lot worse than you

if that helps. :)

I hope we can plan another one within the next month.

Hope your recovery is going ok. Are you pretty sore still?

[SupormomFreeAtLast]

39. Restrictions?

You can't drive but can you ride as a passenger? We really should talk about car-pooling anyway.
We would all enjoy the pleasure of your company.

[mzmolly]

46. Hellleeew !?

If I can be tolerated, you certainly can! ;)

Though, I can't make it either this time as I have plans later.

[KyndCulture]

34. *waves at all the MN DUers... Sorry can't be there...

I'm out in the sticks... thanks for including me though.

[GAspnes]

40. there, you see?

Cooperative decision *is* possible.

Kat & Supormom are right -- having my car cut out from under me (plus having an actual *job*, Lydia) makes directing forum traffic during the day a little bit hectic.

Galactic Pizza at 6 it is. Everyone bring a present for chickenscratching.

[chickenscratching]

45. psssst

i especially love presents that start with the word 'choc' and end in 'olate'.
wait, is it my birthday or something, eh? :shrug:

[dflprincess]

41. I will definitely be there

One thing nice about our meetups - I get to all these places I've never been to before.

[seg4527]

42. damn that's short notice.

sorry, if i had a week or so, i could probably make it though. :-)

[pauliedangerously]

43. WOW--that WAS short notice...

But I ought to be able to make it...Galactic Pizza? Wow...I should get across the river more. I'm thinking it's north of Lake Street around Tatters or something...I'll find it.

[wellst0nev0ter]

44. Gotta Make Up For Snubbing All The Other Meetups

Count me in :)

[mzmolly]

47. Have fun all!

One of these dayz I'll get my bunz to a gathering.

[bvar22]

48. Running late...

I'll never be able to make it.
I hate to miss these!
You'all have a good time and post some pics!
