QC MEETUP IN.... KC, MO?
« on: 03 May 2013, 17:10 »

So I can't make it to NY, and though Redball kindly offered to drop by for a mini meet as he passed through PA, I can't even swing that. 

But I'll be in Kansas City Missouri from June 10 - 18 to grade AP calculus exams. 



Do we even have forum members in that part of the country?  I have every evening free that week (except Sunday, the talent show). 

I spend the evenings with my once-a-year-friends, but I'd love to meetup with forumites, too! 



There are lots of bars.  And Barbecue.  (Oh, sorry, I mean B-B-Q...)

Heh... I might be tempted to road-trip from Oklahoma if there were a meetup there, but I'm going to be in Canada at a conference that week...

I have only ever made it to one fair-sized QC meetup and that is only because it was available to me via public transit.

"I have a dyke in Kansas City" sounds like "I have an elf on the Warsong server" for me.

Well, I'm sure there are quite a few levees along the Missouri River.

KC is a bit far for me. Then again, pretty much anywhere is far from me. Ask Redball.

So how about I pick you up somewhere in northern IL?

Leaving tomorrow morning.  Will be there for one week, working from 8 - 5 each day, then drinking and writing spoofs in the evenings.  There used to be a forum member in KC, but I don't thing they're in here anymore. 


This is more in the nature of a blog post.  Please, do not go out of your way to try and get here (Redball, I'm lookin' at you).  Don't go traveling for days to only meet for a few hours - that's just silly. 


But if you're in the neighborhood (less than a state away?), I would love to meet you!

I have a brother and a sister in KC.  I will have to keep this date in mind for next year.

Second full week in June, every year. 


Of course, that's assuming I'm invited back.  I don't assume anything anymore.

I agree. Besides, I've got a new girlfriend to keep me in MI. Enjoy, Carl, and tell us some stories, spoofs and all.
