I’ll be making my annual trip to Houston to visit family in the first two weeks of February. Is there any interest in a meeting during that time?
The only weekend I don’t have a tournament on in February is the 9th, so I’m game for that weekend.
Sounds good! Feb 9th, that’s a Sunday, right? I’m in. What side of town? I’m on the west side.
The 9th works for me. I’ll have a car so anywhere in the city works for me.
Our “traditional” meeting place has been Joe’s Crab Shack, 6218 Richmond. Shall we continue the tradition or pick a new place?
If we want Chinese food, I know a wonderful little place out on the west side.
I like the crab shack but I’m okay with Chinese if that’s the consensus.
Feb 9th works well for me, at least before I know this semesters test schedule. Chinese sounds like a good change of pace, it is the one asian cuisine there isn’t much of inside the loop. Otherwise I hope not to get lost again going to Joes!
Which Chinese place?
I may be able to make it on the 9th. Things have been hectic around here, but hopefully they will be calmer by then.
Chinese is good for me, too, but Joe’s would work. Which place did you have in mind?
I live in Houston.
I like Joe’s Crab Shack.
I’ll be there. 
A bump.
We’re talking Joe’s Crab Shack, 6218 Richmond on Sunday, February 9. Is five a good time?
If we don’t do Joe’s, I’d like to suggest the Three Dragons Cafe, 1910 Wilcrest Drive
77042.
Otherwise, Joe’s is always good. And somebody poke Ringo and make sure he knows about this. ETA: I did.
My departure date is quickly approaching and my computer access will be intermittent after I arrive in Texas. So can we get a show of hands on who’s planning on attending and any late proposals for a time and place?
raises hand
I’ll be there. Joe’s Crab Shack is fine with me, and has the advantage of being pretty easy to find, but Chinese is great too.
I don’t think I can make it; turns out I have a family function that day.
Much as I’d like to meet the good natured Nemo and others, I’ve already committed elsewhere that day so let me just come in to leave a “Ringo” callout real quick in the hope he’ll do a VC. He’s good people, a frequent Fest’r and y’all would enjoy his companionship.
What’s “doing a VC?” 
I’m not sure unless he’s planning on showing up in black pajamas.
That’s what came to mind for me too.
Sorry… vanity check. Terrible name for the perfectly acceptable practice of searching on your name to see if you’ve been mentioned and need to reply to anyone.
I’ve emailed Ringo. It’d be nice to see him boardwise again.
