Only ONE MILLION DOLLARS? How 20th Century! At least a billion, sir....
Perhaps I look like this!!

And, if you had a million bucks to blow on a photo of me, chances are you would just catch your personal jet down to TO

i will lumber in around 5. brown guy, glasses - kinda big, 5'11" with a back pack

***Taller, Better*** · January 19th, 2012, 06:59 PM

Excellent! My guess is that the pub is going to be kinda quiet on Sunday, so have a look around and see if you can see a table full of skyscraper geeks!

Note that the pub goes back past the initial little bar area.

Gents,

Slight problem on my end.

I now need to be in San Fran at 8AM on Monday for an urgent customer visit.

Instead of drinking scotch and beer, I will be on a plane (drinking scotch and beer maybe?).

Don't let me not being there to trash talk you guys be an impediment.

Please proceed, and the next closest pick can have my drink (but I still get recognized as the supreme being of skyscraper intellect).

Have a great time, and I would love to see a picture of everyone's shoes.

***Taller, Better*** · January 20th, 2012, 08:32 PM

Ah, heck.. bad news, but work comes first! Hopefully if we have a successful meetup, we can have more in the near future!

Unfortunately I will not be able to make it either

Filip · January 22nd, 2012, 07:03 AM

Oh crap.. Completely forgot about this.. I can't come, I have errands to run that are non-negotiable.

It was good!

A decent turnout of 6 people or so, even Filip showed up. Considering all the last minute cancellations et al. it definitely calls for a follow-up meeting sooner rather than later.

Innsertnamehere · January 23rd, 2012, 03:42 AM

so you, filip, taller, better, and...

Okay, that makes five. Guess I'm also counting the attractive blonde sitting on the table next to us.
