I'll salute you from the hot tub in Florida. 
Posted by: flipb Dec 22 2009, 09:43 AM
I really want to meet some of the MD/VA/DC gang, but I'll be out of town.
Thanks for hosting - sorry I will miss it.
Posted by: zymurgist Dec 22 2009, 09:47 AM
I think Babydoll will still be out of town then, too.

Ken - does the laptop float in the hot tub? and I suggest NOT charging it while you're both in there.

I'll let Erin know, but I think we *should* be okay to come over. If not, I'll let you know.

I'm not about to find out. I need both hands for the laptop, and only one hand to hold my beer.

And he needs to keep that second hand free for quality time. Remember to switch hands every now and again for the stranger.

Oh good, short notice 
I may be there
Posted by: plas76targa Dec 23 2009, 07:02 AM
yeah, sorry about the short notice. Article in today's paper mentions how busy travel will be the Sunday's after Christmas and New Year.. I could move this later in the week if that would help people.
Posted by: type47 Dec 23 2009, 07:11 AM
... if that would help people.
yes, but I'm still gonna be iffy.... Fun Nazi ya know....
Posted by: zymurgist Dec 23 2009, 07:14 AM
2nd week in January would help me.

Well my choice of Sunday was to catch Scotty, Root, and You since Scotty's coming to pick up your car.
FWIW, other day ws Weds.

... since Scotty's coming to pick up your car.
that needs to be after the snow is gone as I have "no" way to get from the garage to the driveway if it's snowy or wet.
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 23 2009, 02:02 PM
Ugh
Posted by: scotty b Dec 24 2009, 07:10 PM
So what's the word ? Is this happening happening or no ? I'm not coming for Jim's car but I would probably still make the trip to hang out. Unless it's just Matt and me 
That guy creeps me out the way he likes to hold my hand and call me " buddy "

That guy creeps me out the way he likes to hold my hand and call me " buddy " So far I haven't received any strong responce to this - would you all make it if we moved it to Wednesday? Still short notice, but a better time?
And would it help if i called you 'Bud' instead?
Posted by: zymurgist Dec 25 2009, 06:19 AM
I'm out till the 4th. Talk amongst yourselves.
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 25 2009, 06:29 AM
Not really. Sun works for me for the most part. And as long as we have it before the 4th (so Ken cant come) I am cool 
Scotty, he touched your hand, only?

Katherine walked in and he let go kind of quick. I think he might have been planning to overpower me, but she saved me.
Wed is no good for me either. Some of us have to work for a living ya know
I'm probably coming up to Mikes for the first so if that helps out

Mike just wants me to bring Caroline's spare tranny up to his place so he can sell me a motorcycle.
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 25 2009, 09:19 AM
Me? 
Posted by: wrightee Dec 25 2009, 12:10 PM
Wow - this would've been a great opportunity for me to ask a butt load of dumb questions on my new project, BUT, I'm taking the family to Florida Sunday...hopefully I can make another gathering (I am planning to do the South East Cancer clinic, so most of the dumb questions may be answered down there)!
Merry Christmas to all!
Posted by: ghuff Dec 25 2009, 05:31 PM
Crap. I work sundays and in addition to that I used my boss mojo this past week for a funeral/viewing and being sick.
Posted by: scotty b Dec 25 2009, 06:05 PM
So is this dead then ? If not PM, me your address Matt.
Posted by: Vacca Rabite Dec 25 2009, 08:26 PM
heh. Iand I just got the Okay from Erin to come too.
Scott, if you are headed this way, please let me know when you are going to be around.

Pretty sure I'm coming up for the first. Assuming I do I'll probably leave here around noon, that would put me in your neck around 4:00-4:30 I think. Sunday is looking more and more questionable. You gonna be at Mikes for the 1st ?
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 25 2009, 09:05 PM
Are you coming up for the 1st or for the 31st? If you come up for the 1st you will hang with hung over people, wouldnt you want to be one instead?
Posted by: scotty b Dec 25 2009, 09:28 PM
coming up ON the 31st FOR the first ......maybe............... 
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 25 2009, 09:38 PM
come over, dont be a loser.
Posted by: plas76targa Dec 26 2009, 06:55 AM
Okay - now that I woke you guys up, and hopefully you still have the "ok" from the decision makers, let's still do this 'holiday party' on Suncay. Scotty, since yer traveling from the farthest, yer welcome to stay here.
So, besides Dr Evil, Zach, and Scotty, any one else up for stopping by? Root, Jim, Mike Spraggi, Herb, Josh ..crap who am I forgetting? Where are all these other names I've seen post who are within reasonable distance?
if it ends up being the four of us and E and N, I suggest we go to one of the Brew-pubs in Frederick and hang out.
So?

Go ahead, twist that knife.
Posted by: Vacca Rabite Dec 26 2009, 08:08 AM
Erin and I will be there, and likely Theo as well. Our sitter done busted her ankle.
Zach
Posted by: plas76targa Dec 26 2009, 08:41 AM
Cool. A little holiday 
is in the works!
Posted by: type47 Dec 26 2009, 09:22 AM
We're out, grandkids arrived today.
Posted by: root Dec 26 2009, 09:46 AM
Happy Holidays Everyone!
Susan and I are driving to Jacksonville tomorrow to visit Mom and wrestle gators! 
The boys will be burning down the house while we're gone.
Scotty, let me know when your connecting with Type47, I'll be back on Saturday. I think that's the third of January.
Evil... I'm working on a shift control for the bike and I could use your input on your cable shift concept.
Posted by: scotty b Dec 26 2009, 07:54 PM

Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 26 2009, 09:17 PM

Posted by: plas76targa Dec 27 2009, 10:04 AM
Ok Scotty! Small group expected - the usual "Bums". Katherine is panicking on what to prepare. I'll IM you close in directions.
Posted by: MikeSpraggi Dec 27 2009, 10:24 AM
Bummer. I have to work today. Something about finishing up my staff's evaluations before the end of the year. Need to do face to faces with my team of engineers this week .......... that's gonna be REAL fun ......not! Anyways yous' guys and gals have a good time. (I really hate missing a chance to get together ....argh!)
Posted by: plas76targa Dec 27 2009, 10:34 AM
Spraggi - did Santa put coal in your stocking for procrastinating those evaluations?
Posted by: Vacca Rabite Dec 27 2009, 12:59 PM
Eh, Erin wants to give Theo a nap, so it looks like it will just be me. Sucks, but he has not had a good nap in days, so I can't fault her for her change in mind.
Zach

Spraggi - did Santa put coal in your stocking for procrastinating those evaluations?
Yes........... so what's wrong with coal? I get it every year .. have a nice collection.
Someone once said .... "If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would ever get done."

Ah Well. We missed you. We had just Dr Evil and Noel, Vacca Rabite, and Scotty B, Me and Katherine. The most fun was a Nerf Dart war with my kids. Loads of laughs.

Posted by: Vacca Rabite Dec 28 2009, 10:20 AM
That was a lot of fun last night. I know there was someone taking pictures during the nerf battle, but I don't know if it was Katheren or Noel. I can say that there was not much of an age difference between the Plasket's teenish boys and the "grown" men once a nerf gun was placed in our hands.
Zach
Posted by: crash914 Dec 28 2009, 05:57 PM
Sorry i missed it...Monique had to work until 6:00 and I was recovering from an all nighter Saturday night and Sunday from work..
Next time....
Posted by: Dr Evil Dec 29 2009, 02:10 AM
My legs are sore today from the exertion of nerf combat
Thanks for having us all over
