Electronics/Microcontrollers/Computers Meetup?

[Chris Savage]

Bummer, hopefully everything will work out, and the two of you will be able to show up. I will be sad if you miss it.

That makes two of us.

Brian:

Items ordered:

• 50 ea Disposable coffee cups, 16 oz
• 100 ea Plastic drinking glasses, 16 oz
• 300 ea Plastic knives, forks and spoons (100 ea)
• 400 ea Paper napkins
• 100 ea Paper plates, 10"
• 10 ea Extension cords, 25-foot, 3 outlets

They should all arrive at your house on this Tuesday. (I gave them your phone number in case they have troubles finding your place.)

Everyone: is there anything else that you can think of that I missed? Also, if anyone is bringing stuff to show off, and they think that they will need more than the three outlets, please bring a (or some) power strip(s). Also, keep in mind the power availability - we do not need anyone to show off their DIY multi-ton steel-melting electric arc furnace. Please keep it to lowish-power, or battery, operation.

WHAT!!! I can't bring my electric arc furnace . Actually they are replacing the furnace at the church so that can be a substitute.

Since we are starting at noon I won't be bringing donuts but I'm willing to get soft drinks, chips, chip in for pizza or whatever else is needed. for soft drinks let me know your preferences. We will have access to the refrigerator. I plan on being at the church Friday evening around 6-9 and Saturday morning at 9 AM for setup.

Oh sure, you can bring it, we just don't need to see you show it off - unless, of course, you are the one paying the Church's electric bill. You will also need some slightly heavier-duty extension cords.

You should be getting the stuff on Tuesday. Please check it and make sure that everything on the above list is present. Thanks.

I'm a HUGE fan of the original Pizza Hut / Little Caesar's. It's hard to find good ones anymore. But, my question is, do they deliver to the church?

EDIT: I will have to check the distance...

[granz]

@MicroNut, I got an email saying that the items from Amazon were delivered about 2:00PM today. Could you please confirm?

[MicroNut]

Granz, I got two boxes but did not open them. If you want me to I'll open them and check.

Chris, All the pizza places I mention are within 4 miles and Little Ceasears does deliver to the church.

Thank you. I will be partaking in some pizza. I can also provide pizza for members who attend.

Yes, please do open them. I usually, but not always, get my entire shipment as ordered. I need to know if we got everything while there is still time to get things fixed if we are missing anything.

[MicroNut]

Granz, Everything in your order is there.

Fantastic! Meetup, here we come!

I actually noticed, while shopping yesterday, that I had not included any duct tape for taping down the extension cords. Two bright red (warning color) rolls of duct tape into our shopping cart, and that mistake is taken care of.

Thanks, Brian.

[MicroNut]

Granz, I'm not sure about the duct tape. Most of the room is carpeted which make it hard to stick duct tape too.

I've used duct tape on carpeting before, but if it gives us any troubles, we will just have to find a different way.

Apparently, Marilyn will not (as in, when I told someone at our grandson's birthday party yesterday that she would be driving, she said "I absolutely WILL NOT be driving," to the outlet mall. She doesn't like driving, and has not driven for over three years. I asked her what she will be doing, and she said that she will stay at the motel and go swimming.

So, I guess that Val, and Angie, can join her at the motel.

Joe, do you have your reservation already?
