Mike, the last time I was in MSP it was 30 below zero. The time before that it was 110 above. :eek: :eek:

If you ever have a party in April, May or October, we will come. :D

bonoman Feb 3, 2008 8:13 pm

I'll either be in Madison or Cincinnati this time for work that week, so I'd have to skip this one. :(

We've had -15 three times recently. It has to get better.

MSP Meet
 
Sorry I have to miss this one too.

Will be on a MR to HNL that week. UA-DL Fare War out Of WAS.

And I need the break from that below zero too.

Have a great get together! I'll sure try to make the next one.

Tuesday, Feb. 19
Wednesday, Feb.20
Thursay, Feb. 21

Any preferred venues?

If there's no clear choice by Thursday (2/7) somebody will make an arbitrary decision. :D

All 3 of them work, as long as the venue's are DTW or YZR (I'll actually be in YZR) :)

Sorry wont be anywhere near MSP :(

Scoop I has been notified, but don't think a Scoop II, Scoop in Waiting or Scoop Regent has yet been designated.

Tuesday is definitely bad for me. Wednesday is the best candidate for me. Thursday probably bad too. I live NW suburbs if folks have an interest in venturing way up there.

Lehava Feb 4, 2008 10:50 am

Out of town for all of them. Sorry

Ginger K Feb 4, 2008 1:29 pm

Not to cast aspersions on anyone, but the smart Minnesotans are in Naples this month. So for venue I'd suggest RSW :D

fti Feb 4, 2008 4:12 pm

I am out of the country the entire week. Sorry. One of these days it will work out for me to come!

john_l Feb 4, 2008 8:18 pm

Any of these three could work for me. NW direction is better for me as well.

Why was it again that you moved here? :D

BondAir007 Feb 7, 2008 1:57 am

Sorry, I will not make it for either dates. I will be out of town.

Bloomington Outback -- Wednesday Feb. 20
 
Looks like Wednesday the 20th is the best bet. Unfortunately some people's preferences & travel schedules are mutually exclusive, so we can't please everyone.

Also some people on the west side of the metro indicated the might be getting tired of east side (e.g. St. Paul & Eagan) locations, so I am going to revert to the Bloomington Outback for this one.

I'll PM/email everyone tomorrow.

MikeMpls Feb 15, 2008 1:02 pm

Ok, I'll admit I'm a bozo. Let's qualify that to 7 p.m. on Weds. Feb. 20.

john_l Feb 15, 2008 7:28 pm

I'll be there.

curl Feb 18, 2008 9:08 pm

i'm in, but i have a haircut that evening, so will be coming late. where is the Outback? 494?

MikeMpls Feb 19, 2008 12:21 am

I added a map link. It's on the south side frontage road off 494. If you're coming from the west, take the Nicollet exit.

MikeMpls Feb 19, 2008 11:49 am

Last bump / last call!

Tomorrow (Wed) evening, 7 p.m., Bloomington Outback, map link in base post...

iCorpRoadie Feb 19, 2008 2:53 pm

wish I could attend but I am out at the Treasure Island Casino without a car :(

prncess674 Feb 19, 2008 3:08 pm

If anyone is around downtown Minneapolis this evening I would be up for dinner or drinks. I dont have a car so it would have to be somewhere near here.

Is this one of the casinos that runs buses to bring little old ladies and their savings out to the slot machines? Any way you can ride one of the buses in?
One of us can take you back.

I looked at picking you up, but I work in Chanhassen, and driving 60 miles across the metro at that hour will take a long time.

A couple people live/work on the St. Paul side & might be able to help relay you.

mnredfox Feb 21, 2008 8:50 am

Hey MSP-ers, sorry I missed you guys this time. Hopefully will make it next time as I have yet to get to a MSP get-together.

iCorpRoadie Feb 21, 2008 1:06 pm

Sorry I missed you, it was between sleeping in my own bed or in some strange bed at some hotel!
