Title: SKYPE CHAT - Sat., Nov. 21st
Post by: Rico on November 14, 2009, 07:18:21 AM
Going to do a Skype chat for next weekend's podcast.  We will be gathering and recording on Sat., Nov. 21st, at 2pm Eastern Time (do the math for your time zone).  The usual topics about TV, movies and Trek stuff will be covered.  I also hope to talk a little about next week's DVD/Blu-Ray release of "Star Trek."  Hope to 'hear' many of you then!  :)

Uggh - I have wanted to get on one of these for the longest time.  We'll be away on vacation that week, so I will not be able to join.

Don't worry for those that miss this one.  I try to do one every couple of months or so.

Perhaps Brother Feathers can help me with an exit strategy \ list of excuses to the wife (aka 'She Who Must Be Obeyed' (thanks Rumpole!))?

*  Wrong number
*  It was the pheromones....I couldn't help myself!
*  You're right!  I shouldn't have guzzled the water!  I am going to be in here for awhile!
*  Damned Roman plumbing!
*  I am just practicing my explanation to Homeland Security, I'll be out in a few!

I don't know with my varyingly unpredictable schedule these days, but I'd like to be involved if I can. As of right now I'm free for Saturday.

I can't guarantee to be available for this one but I'll obviously be listening on Sunday/Monday.

Just another reminder about the call today.  I'll be setting up and getting the conference call going probably about 15 minutes or so before the 2pm eastern time.  So if you are on then, I'll invite you a bit early so you can all hear me "chat" about my recent job debacle.  I like that word, 'debacle.'  People don't use that word enough.  ;)

Debacle seems like as good a word as any :)

Likely topics:  Flash Forward, Heroes, Stargate: Universe, Clone Wars, Fringe, a few other TV shows, movies, and the Trek DVD/Blu-Ray release.

Skype call: It's like a podcast, but people won't think you're funny when you talk to it! :)
I had fun, but admittedly I didn't utilize the talking feature much. ;)

Much like my first time, I kept forgetting that I was on the show and not just listening like I do every week. I don't think I said must that podcast, but it was easier this time round.


Thanks for the letting me on Rico (and back on the two times my connection kicked me off), and thanks everybody else for the great chat. Lots of fun.

Looking forward to hearing the chat. Fatherly duties and work make it difficult for me to join in at the moment (nevermind the fact there isn't many places in the house that aren't noisy these days!) but I do really want to get on one again at some point.
