I think this group should just be a regular CP social meetup network instead of being such a rah rah movers & shakers all business thing with a gazillion rules made up by a guy who interprets & manipulates rules for a living. (no offence troutman, just pullin' your tail

) If CPers wants to exchange a couple business cards at these meets so be it, just let the business component happen natually after a couple drinks and some small talk, and everyone can go home happy.

Just my $0.02

I agree with this. There are already two lawyers in the group, and I think we complement each other.

The winner has to then cut a glass of milk into quarters to be admitted into the secret society.

Two men enter, one man leaves!

That's a nice hat you're wearing today, troutman.

That would be a compliment, not complement

For the record Connor is more than welcome. The Internets are big anyway, plenty of room for all of us.

Slava · 01-30-2008, 12:55 PM

I'm certainly not trying to be exclusionary at all. Just going by the original layout/intent of the group.

c.t.ner · 01-30-2008, 02:33 PM

Thanks FurnaceFace.

I didn't mean to step on any toes, just trying to meet some new people and make new contacts. By the sounds of thing, it seems like it will be a pretty good evening.

And as you said, the fancy tubes that make up the internet are very, very large.

...and you have my respect for upholding it.

Slava · 01-30-2008, 07:36 PM

^ Thanks Dave! I just want the group to get off the ground and have an increased attendance.

troutman · 01-31-2008, 08:29 AM

Breaking News!

In an effort to boost attendance, I am pleased to announce, "An Evening With troutman II".

One very lucky attendee, will win a ticket to the Flames vs Dallas on Saturday Feb. 2 @ 8:00 pm. My guest is also eligible for a pre-game meal, and heroin beers on me.

So come on out tonight, and you could win! The winner will have to complete some kind of feat of strength.

Spread the word, and let's make tonight a good gathering.

Wildwood @ 7:00 pm

Guys, I'm down with the flu, I could try to make it, but I really don't want to become the biological weapons of biological weapons and infect the group.

Sorry.

Sure worked on you.

Aeneas · 01-31-2008, 09:40 AM

Not sure I fit the profile for a Networking club.
Should stick to slo pitch and books methinks.
Beer though...hmmm.
