Not by choice. People sick 24/7!

Do you know that we all work every other weekend? So, if you can just switch one week apart next time, you will have at least 4~5 more people.

Didn't have snow in the forecast, supposed to be cold. I wish it would be like it was last week.

Stupid global warming.

haha nick, ok here's an idea.

Theres a really good restaurant 5 minutes away from the meet location called SBC (Southport Brewing Company) that makes their own great tasting beer in huge vats on site in the dining area and has some pretty decent food too. If it's raining Saturday I say we move the meet to their parking lot and having lunch there!
