From casey at geeknest.com Thu Jan 2 07:25:57 2003 From: casey at geeknest.com (casey@geeknest.com) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:34:56 2004 Subject: [pgh-pm] Pittsburgh Perl Mongers | Meeting | 01.08.2003 Message-ID: <20030102132557.C5FF51CBEA4@caseywest.com> *Social Meeting at Robot Club* This social meeting is at the Robot Club & Grille, a robot-themed restaurant. There we can eat and talk Perl while robots duel to the mechanical death in the cage. This place boasts "The best meal you've ever had behind bullet-proof glass!" Thanks to Avi Finkel for mentioning this venue. According to the web site, you can buy robot supplies there for creating your own chaos. But more importantly, they'll offer robots for rent so we can tear each other to pieces. *Location* Robot Club & Grille http://robot-club.com Norwin Town Square 01.08.2003 02:00 *Details* Renting robots costs 5.00 USD per person per fight. There are also special large robots called "trashers" for 20.00 USD per person. These "trashers" get to beat the crap out of random stuff such as TVs and old computers. Burgers seem to be about 6.00 USD. Group discounts are currently being looked into, with no promise as of now. -- Casey West (via automation) From casey at geeknest.com Thu Jan 2 11:00:05 2003 From: casey at geeknest.com (Casey West) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:34:56 2004 Subject: [pgh-pm] Bring Tech to Meetings Message-ID: <20030102170005.GA7658@geeknest.com> I'd like to remind all of you that just because we're having a social meeting doesn't mean we can't have tech stuff, or talk shop. I'm bringing my laptop, at least. Fox, you /must/ bring your GPS thingie. :-) -- Casey West From afoxson at pobox.com Thu Jan 2 12:22:37 2003 From: afoxson at pobox.com (Adam Foxson) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:34:56 2004 Subject: [pgh-pm] Bring Tech to Meetings In-Reply-To: <20030102170005.GA7658@geeknest.com> References: <20030102170005.GA7658@geeknest.com> Message-ID: <20030102182237.GA21529@magnonel.guild.net> On Thu, Jan 02, 2003 at 12:00:05PM -0500, Casey West wrote: > bringing my laptop, at least.

If you would be so kind as to email me (or the list if you want everyone to know you WILL BE THERE :-) with a *nod*, that would rock!

The Robot Club is a Perl Shop! Book purchases could be a tad better. Can anyone donate a used Learning Perl when they come tonight? And wireless will be in towe. :-) ----- Forwarded message from David Ikerd ----- Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2003 16:04:21 -0500 Subject: Re: Perl Mongers Meeting From: David Ikerd To: Casey West We have up to two ports that you can plug into that are right along the restaurant near the corner of the Main Arena. I won't be here that late, (I come in at 8:30 am so I can get some video edited before things start getting noisy.) But I told Shanna where to let you plug in. Just ask for her after you come in. If I didn't have obligations tonight I would stay late, as I am just about to start learning Perl (I have my Perl for Dummies book here on the desk). Fuzzy, the owner of the place (who is also gone for the evening) is creating some of the software that we use for the tournaments on Perl. I hope you enjoy yourselves and please pass the word around about this place. Thanks for your support.

These short talks are not difficult to give. I'd like to get everyone in the group speaking about what they do, how they do it, or other cool nonsense. If you want to speak and don't know what to speak about, please get in touch with me, I'll help you out. We've got about 20 subscriptions to the mailing list now, I know some of you personally, you can surely come up with five minutes of material. Don't be shy! :-) See you on the 12th of next month. -- Casey West
