Where should we get beer?

[Drew]

This is the most important question we have ever faced as a visual
effects community. I don't even know where to begin.

[Drew]

I wonder if the city is good central meeting point for people? If so,
maybe the Zeitgeist would be a fun place to meet up?

that sounds good to me. when are you guys thinking of meeting up?

[kevin meinert]

any time after thursday is good for me...   then i'm a bachelor for 3 weeks...

[Drew]

I'd be down to do it anytime - friday, saturday, or sometime next week
if that's better for people. Just not sunday night for me cause i'm
going to the kids in the hall show.

friday or sometime next week would work best for me (kids in the hall should be awesome! I wonder if chicken lady will be there)

[kevin meinert]

works for me.  whenever.

[Cory Bloyd]

Friday night would be good for me.

[Drew]

Sweet - let's get together friday at the Zeitgeist then. Say around
8? Unless that doesn't give people enough time to get there after
work, i'm not really sure where people are coming from.

I have something friday night that starts at 7, so the later the beer
starts flowing, the more of it I'll be there for. Maybe have it start
at 8:30? I should be able to swing by later, probably around 9 - 9:30
or so is my guess. I'll just call Kevin or something when I'm done to
make sure you guys are still out. I feel bad helping start this and
then not being there for all the inital introductions. :)

I'll be there. Since I don't know what any of you look like, I guess I'll go around and ask people FX?! Or maybe I'll wear a name tag =]

i'll be wearing a horizontally striped beanie, orange, green, red, black...   (seriously..)     also.. a black button up shirt... black coat...  

also, I'll probably arrive with cory, who's head is shaved, and he has big beard... ;-)

Oh geez - I didn't think about that detail.  Time to get out the funny
hats!  I'll go home tonight and see if i have anything REALLY
obvious.  Like a hollowed out watermelon with sparklers sticking out
of it or something.

We can also try for a less crowded place where it will be more obvious
we're looking for each other.  The Zeitgest is probably going to be
pretty nuts on a friday night. It can be hard to find people, even if
you know who you're looking for...

I switched around the group settings so only members can view these
pages.  That's enough for me to leave my cel 518-727-4611, but by all
means don't feel obligated to share yours.  I have no idea how secure
it really is.

[Seth Faske]

great - thanks!

[Drew]

Awesome - I will seek the beanie!

I feel like it's probably too late to change the venue, since there's
no guarantee people will read this . But given the crummy weather,
I'm taking this opportunity to apologize in advance if it's wet and
miserable. The upside is the zeitgeist has pitchers, which will help
keep us warm!

Sweet, I will show up late, preferably just after all the ackward
introductions are over.  And since I already know what most of you
look like, I should be set. :)  See you all tonight!

My cell if anyone cares
415-640-3060, know it, love it

8:30 sounds good to me. That way we'll only be slightly belligerent
by the time Tim shows up. ;\

[Seth Faske]

Yeah, this was a great start!!! I can't wait tell things slow down a
bit for me so that I can spend more time making cool stuff. :)
