Each MONDAY evening, except the first Monday of the month, beginning at about 7 pm, everyone is welcome to hang out with other PLUGgers at Tim Horton's Coffee & Donuts on Monaghan Road just north of Lansdowne Street. We call these nights PLUG MUGs. There is Free wireless Internet and no agenda; just friends hanging out, and talking about everything from Linux to X-rays.
If you're planning on attending this MUG, please POST BELOW. It helps people coming from out of town to know if anybody is coming. By the way, you don't have to be there right at 7 pm, that's just a suggested time. We fully expect people to show up at different times. If you're not coming at 7-8 pm though, let us know roughly when you're coming so we can wait for you.
Synchronize your watches!! <^8# See you there!
...And I will be late, but I expect to see a good turnout when I get there! <^8#
I will try my darndest to make it out to this one. I was on the road Monday night so I missed it, Missed Hackernest as well as I was off at a work thing.
I'll be sure to bring the Datacenter in a box with me as long as I have access to power and caffeine I'll have some interesting things to show.
I'll be bringing my new LG GPad III tablet so that we can experiment with making and receiving texts via connection with an Android phone. (Bill's?)
I expect I will make the Mug. Probably be there sometime after 7 pm.
I may bring my Raspberry Pi and show the OpenElec Kodi software running on it.
How, Bill? Did you buy the LCD screen for your Pi?
I did buy something but it wasn t a screen. :-)
I hope to hang in until 9:30 at the Mug, so if you can make the Mug after your class, I will show you. :-)
I had a really busy day yesterday at the Phantasm RPG convention so I'm really wiped today and won't be attending tonight. Catch you guys next week.
Let me know if you just want me to put up a generic blurb about the Raspberry Pi show-and-tells (I won't actually call it that in the description) or if you guys have more specific blurbs, email them to me or send me a personal message here. Sorry that you'll probably be missing your first PLUG monthly meeting in a long time, Bob. We'll miss your added tips.
I came I saw, I had a donut, and left as soon as fox appeared :) - No offense bedtimes are immutable.
None taken, but you didn't mention that it was your son's bedtime, not yours (at least that's what you said). ;D
I have the great luxury of sleeping on average 5 hours a night. Of which I often dream of work.

Stuff like the above is where my sleeping Brain lives.
Damn! Sorry I missed you, Brian! I got there in time to see Bill's incredible new Asus toy, an expensive'ish combination power bank and HDMI projector in a box about the size of a portable HDD. Now that's geek-slick! <^8# And then he was off back to the boonies of Lindsay, and Mike and I took off to his place, where I graced him with the requisite "The IT Crowd" series, *and* a set of Nixie Pixel YouTube videos (admittedly long in the tooth, the newest was 2015'ish, but he did NOT seem to mind a bit! <^8#)
Anyway, neural synapses are being called upon for new information and new disciplines, so my brain's a tad shaggy - I forgot to mention that Rob met the outflow from the Amateur Radio Club class Monday night, but after popping out with some of the 'elders', all that was left for him at Timmy's Monaghan when he got there was memories! <^8#
Exciting times, exciting times! <^8#
