So let's do this, yeah?

Perhaps on the 6th at PFX?  Or is that too close to the lunch event?

Anyway, let's decide :)

That's fine with me.

Would we skip the monthly meeting because it's so close to
Thanksgiving? We could have two meetings this month to watch three
episodes in each. :)

I'm happy to postpone my simple photo processing talk if there's more  
interest in watching the IT crowd :)

According to a commercial on TV, "Beauties and Geeks" is casting
tomorrow in Chicago. I guess that might be one way to promote Perl.
I'm already taken, so someone else has to step up :)

time.. everybody else - ok?

Ok, the distance is only 0.1 miles according to google, lets go to the
Adams location!

Also,

I'm a copycat by creating one for Windy City Perl Mongers. If you've
done something with the group you can join and have the cute little
Windy City flag icon in your LinkedIn profile.

This turned up in my blog search for my name (yes, I'm interested in
who's talking about me :). It's perhaps uglier than any site I create,
but it's an "anti-networking" networking site that lists tech events.
Here's the link to get you close to Chicago:

http://calendars.techvenue.com/cgi-bin/techvenue.pl?CalendarName=USMidwest

For most of us, the calendar might not be all that useful. However, if
we start putting the Perl events on it, other people will see them.
Public events with no admission fee are free to post, although there
is a lag time as a human checks those events.

It also looks like there is a Match.com style networking /recruitment
tool where you can search for people with general skills ("sales",
"IT") under certain categories ("Unemployed"). I'd be curious to hear
if those of you responsible for hiring think that is useful.

Also, does anyone use something similar for Chicago events, even if
it's not technology focussed? Mike Fragassi is often talking about
Gaper's Block (http://www.gapersblock.com/), for instance. I'm
wondering where else people might look.

So, I was a little confused on this, and I think any decisions that  
were made might've gotten lost in the shuffle.

Am I giving my Simple Photo Processing talk on Tuesday, Nov 27 @ PFX  
downtown?

Or is everyone planning on pitching in a couple of dollars and  
watching the IT crowd?

Last I heard it was just a social thing for the meeting after Thanksgiving.

There aren't any talks scheduled for December yet though. :)

Well - the 4th Tuesday in December is the 25th.  I'm not really up  
for coming back from Boston on Christmas day to give a talk.

Actually it's not me that would mind the most - it would be the wife,  
whose family I would be snubbing by leaving :)

OK, since the meeting is tomorrow, let's do a social meeting instead of
a technical meeting.  This will consist of watching The IT Crowd and
then going out to Monks afterward.  We will save Kent's and my talks for
another time :)

The meeting will start at 7 on the 12th floor of Performics, the usual
place.  (Can someone at pfx generate an attendance list?)

Hopefully this is OK with everyone.  I will bring The IT Crowd and the
necessary cables.

Regards,
Jonathan Rockway

I'm bringing a big bag of books to give-away too. If you've taken a
book in the past, find a book you don't want anymore to throw into the
pile.

Nola also talked about ordering some food, and I think she already has
some plans on something besides pizza (apparently Performics does
pizza a lot!). Come hungry :)

Is anyone coming tomorrow night?  I know that Pete and Nola are out.
I'm iffy.  It's concerning me that there might not be anyone from
Performics that is going to be there to let people in.

So, two questions...

1) Who is planning on attending?
2) Who from PFX is planning on hosting?

Okay, it looks like I'm free after all too.  Let's plan on PFX at  
seven... though I want to warn you that I might harass a few people  
into doing Perl Advent pieces.

In case you're just leaving work and thinking about going home, my
offer still stands: I buy the first round of drinks for any new people
that show up at the meeting :)

Let's get together at some downtown restaurant for a birthday dinner
for Perl, December 18. Somebody can pose as Perl to ge the free cake
or whatever from the restaurant. We'll do the book exchange as wrapped
books that we can exchange (and I have plenty of books to give out so
if you don't have one, I can give you one).

Maybe I can get some swag from the usual sources as special birthday gifts/

Any suggestions for the right place to celebrate?

I can do it, although I had to reschedule a dentist appointment.

And as the nigh-Xmas birthday guy who never gets parties (*sniff*)
I call being "Mr. Perl".

	special deal for Windy City Perl Mongers

Stonehenge is offering open enrollment Perl training in
Chicago from Dec 10-14. This is the last call for this special
offer for Windy City Perl Mongers, which won't be available after
Sunday. Use up those end of year dollars!

This is a low cost offereing, so Stonehenge will not be providing
meals or laptops. The location has plenty of nearby restaurants and
you need to bring your own computer. I'll have complete details later
this week---this is a special pre-announcement offering!

Here are the public rates, and the rates I'll give for Windy City Perl
Mongers people. I can take a credit card or a purchase order. If you
or your company are interested in this, contact me right away. I can't
reserve seats without a payment arrangement, and it's first-pay first
served. There are only 20 slots per class. Companies that want to send
several students can ask for a deeper discount.

Day courses, 8am to 4pm
---------------
Learning Perl, Dec 10-12,       $750/person  --> $700 for WindyCity.pm
Intermediate Perl, Dec 13-15, $500/person  --> $450 for WindyCity.pm

Night courses, 6pm to 9pm
---------------
Catalyst, Dec 10-12,                          $375/person  --> $325
for WindyCity.pm
Test Driven Development, Dec 13-14, $250/person  --> $200 for WindyCity.pm
