I had wanted to go to this, but after working past midnight on Wednesday for a client, I was beat and couldn't get up the energy to run out to the meeting right after getting home at 6:45...not that I remembered it was Thursday yesterday until 7:15 anyways. One of these days I will actually make it out to another meeting. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Robby Russell Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 8:45 AM To: PDXLUG, a Portland Linux user group Subject: Re: [PDXLUG] w00t!

It was a nice turnout..but there wasn't any arm (or mud) wrestling. Maybe next time. :-) See you all next month, Robby -- /*************************************** * Robby Russell | Owner.Developer.Geek * PLANET ARGON | www.planetargon.com * Portland, OR | [email protected] * 503.351.4730 | blog.planetargon.com * PHP, Ruby, and PostgreSQL Development * http://www.robbyonrails.com/ ****************************************/ _______________________________________________ PDXLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxlug IRC: irc.freenode.net #pdxlug _______________________________________________ PDXLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxlug IRC: irc.freenode.net #pdxlug
