Title: Skype Chat, March 12th, 1pm
Post by: Rico on March 06, 2011, 01:02:42 PM
For next weekend's podcast, I'll be having a Skype chat next Saturday, March 12th at 1pm eastern time.  We will be talking TV shows, movies and the usual topics.  Hope several of you can make it.   :biggrin

Sorry, at work during that time.  Unless something changes (on my end) I can't make it.  :(

That's 6pm my time. I'll be feeding the little one around that time as my wife's at work so not looking good for me I'm afraid. :(

I would like to try to be in on this one.  Although I am not very current on the newest TV shows.  ((I do have opinions about Caprica...))  ;)

I might be able to be there, can't commit for sure.  Also definitely not up on any of the current genre TV other than Fringe.  But I'll try if I can get away from the kids for an hour or so.

I'm going to be in the city on Saturday afternoon - the new theatre season means lots of previews to see...

Have fun, though!  :)

We don't use webcams.. it's only audio.. if you have a mic or headset then you can join us.

Well, despite my hopes that things would change on my end, they didn't.  So I am definitely not coming.  Have fun guys.

I was planning on coming, but I have a 3rd interview scheduled for exactly that time. Since the place is less than 15 minutes from my place, I should be back before it's over.

Would love to try and make it for a bit, if possible. How do I get on the skype list?

Email Rico your skype name and he will add you on.

Well based on the 3 days straight of rain we have skiing is off. Count me in!
Title: Re: Skype Chat, March 12th, 1pm
Post by: Jobydrone on March 11, 2011, 06:11:44 AM
Based on the large number of people expressing that they are coming I may bow out and let some folks that haven't done this yet have some time
Title: Re: Skype Chat, March 12th, 1pm
Post by: billybob476 on March 11, 2011, 06:19:20 AM

Don't let that stop you.  Many comment they can make it, but things come up and sometimes they can't drop in.  I don't think I've ever felt we had too many for the call.

I think we have 7 or 8 guys, all men over the age of 40, so we are competing in the Masters Division and I am not even close to being the fastest guy on the team. Some of these dudes are FAST runners.

So the rule is the top 4 times of any team are counted, lowest combined time wins. Our beefy boy only needs to finish within 2 hours, he doesn't need to be one of the top 4. :)

Just set dinner to cook for 6:15 so that pretty much guarantees I won't be around I'm afraid. (This assumes I can persuade the kids that they now want to go for a walk in the woods)

I really wish I could have been there, but I had to pretend I was all dazed and confused for the Ski Patrol and than fall on my butt a bunch as I developed my snowboarding skills. The Ski Patrol part was for their final exam. I had to pretend to be a patient for them. We got free tickets and rentals for doing it, so we poor college students couldn't pass that up.
