| === Technical Meeting/Social: Tuesday December 10th ===
| |
| December is too chaotic for hosting both a technical meeting and a social, so we'll do something geeky. K-LUG and PCIG will go hang out at [http://hobbygoblins.com/ Hobby Goblins] for board and card games. Bring yours if you have some to share, last time they also had a few of the personal games of the staff available to introduce us to.
| |
|
| |
|
| We'll list an official start time of 6 pm since that's the time of our normal technical meeting, but last time we were welcome to show up early if you want. And while they officially close at 8 if the store is unpopulated, last time we were playing nice so we were allowed to stay until after 9.

| |
|
| We're allowed to bring (or order in) food, and beverages. We'll take up a monetary collection towards pizza, and order at ~6:15, don't be late if you want in on the food. They aren't charging us for the use of this space, but they have soda (canned, Pepsi and Coke products) available there for sale as well as chocolate candy bars (ie Snickers and Twix); it would be nice if we "paid" for our use of the space by purchasing our beverages from them. If you bring your own beverage, please do so in resealable containers. Treat contributions are welcome, please be considerate of food that won't damage the games (directly or by making for very messy hands).

| === Planned Socials: Fall or winter ===
| |
| -Jim Henderson, "Silicon Valley" documentary
| |
| | |
| -Children's Museum. Don't have a kid and feel akward about wandering around to check the place out without one? This is your chance, we'll have at least one coming with the group to salve any feelings of stalking stranger's children.
| |
| | |
| -Rock climbing at Prairie Walls before they take down the sign we constructed for the Red Bull Creation contest.
| |
| | |
| -Liquid nitrogen ice cream. This needs a non-Tina organizer. Dennis DeLorme has 2 recipes. We need safety equipment and someone trained enough to keep us from freezing ourselves.
| |
| | |
| -MAME/foosball/ping pong at Tim Massaro's.
| |
| | |
| -Parallax build contest ~Christmas

| === Upcoming Meeting Crisis! ===
| |
| Well, not really a crisis, but we do need some meeting topics (& speakers) for 2013. We'd like to know what you want to see and hear about. Please email Tina or Tim with suggestions for topics. Should we run some previous sessions again (maybe something you really wanted to see but missed out on)? What type of topics are good, what type are bad? Also see this page for a list of suggested topics http://www.k-lug.org/Meetings
