Bummer DrJ,

I won't have PK's toys at the next one, whenever that might be. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Looks like -1 so far. Time is 7:30pm at My Thai. Just in case there is some confusion.

Sorry for the late post. If you catch this, there is no change or location. Same place, same time. See ya there.

My apologies to those who attended the get together, I'm sorry I didn't make it.

I received a call from an friend from way back in high school while driving to the Dinner. Before I knew it missed several exits on the freeway and decided to take a shortcut to make up for lost time. Well I became lost myself.

Sorry guys, I was really looking forward to this, maybe next time.

Again my apologies,
GregR

Double A,

Sorry you got lost. We should do this again.

I had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone. I'm really bad with names but I raffled off a MM+ Adj Q3 and the winner was Paul's friend. I gave everyone there an RGB LED to take home and play with.

There must of been a gazillion lights there of every shape and size. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif We got to see... well, you name it and it was probably there.

My fav light was unnerv's cut down DD Mag. Awesome heat sink... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Nice to meet you guys! Double A, sorry you didn't make it. I hope you guys understand that PK sent up some of his "toys" for us to see but not talk about in public. I don't know if I made that clear to everyone or not. I hope everyone gets home safely without any retina damage! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yea thanks guys, I knew there was going to be some real neat stuff there, now I'm really sorry I screwed up. And I even had a new ARC-AAA to toss into the raffle pot.

You could just give it to me... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I seem to give them away as fast as I get them. Oh well, it's good for Arc and that's good for me... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

By the light of that awesome MM+, I just installed my RGB led as the power light in my computer. It's so pretty! Very nice. That really was a gazillion lights. Darn, now I need to go buy more flashlights!

Well, finally got back on...was going thru CPF withdrawls. It was great to meet all of you. That box of toys Don brought was impressive...to bad we can't say more I think for the next meet we are going to have to find some place a little darker where we can really play with the lights. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

It was cool meeting "celebrities" like Don, Wayne, and Cindy.

Can't wait until the next one.

ok, the next get together is the 19th. I'll pick the date. What time and location shall we meet this time?

I would suggest the Milpitas/Fremont area. I know some that prefer that area. I won't travel too much more north than that unless we move it to the weekend.

I plan on offering more give aways and there will be more drawings held.

Let's start the list of names again in this thread.

Who's going:

Wayne & Cindy

Any idea of where we are going to meet? I am not that familiar with that side of the bay, but it would be nice to have someplace that is more dimly lit like a pizza place or a chili's. Having a dark parking lot nearby would be cool too so we can play with everyone's toys.

I think we need a few more people or it might not happen. It depends on who's going to make it or not.

Let's see. Hank - Berkeley. Unnerv - San bruno, me - SC. If I triangulate and find the center....

I think the middle of the Dumbarton is perfect!

I'm all for Tai again, or somewhere on the west side of the bay.

Maybe, there won't be enough mass this month.

I think I will cancel this one and move it out. I have too much stuff I'd like to get done this week and I won't really have time to work on goodies for the get together.

I'll post here again or in a new thread. Sorry, for the cancellation.

Just as well. One of my buddies can't make it now. That would only leave us with 5 people. I suggest Jan 21st for the next one as there is no moon that day /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I'll be in London stumbling around in the dark trying to find the Tower of London with my flashlights, bummer!
