Newbies at OUCH 1010?
Jul 7^th, 2010 at 8:43pm

My first time and I'm getting psyched. Other newbies? If my clusters keep going at this rate, I could be down to 1-2 /day by then (up from 7 -8 three weeks ago). Oxygen -- gotta love it. Anyway. I'm arriving Thursday mid-day and wanted to see if I could rustle up some dinner plans, either with newbies or a small mix of folks. Any interest? I'm not sure why I scheduled an early flight, but I get there around noon and will either hang around the pool or "run in" and see a museum or something. Jim Lux

I'm not a newbie, but it don't matter. One of the things I want to do while in Atlanta is eat dinner at The Highlander:

We've all got dinner plans for Saturday, so it doesn't matter to me whether we go Thursday or Friday night. Something tells me Thursday would be less of a wait.

I'll be getting in there about 11 AM. Don't know about dinner plans as of yet, but be happy to hang out and get to know you. Been a long time since I was a newbie, but I'll never forget the first time I met a clusterhead. I still get homesick whenever I go through Davenport IA, where I went to the first get together I attended. It's lifechanging, or at least for me it was.

Just imagine hanging out with a group where halfway through a conversation someone gets hit, and there is no break in the conversation. Yeah, it's a neat feeling. Joe

Newbie to the conventions, been around for a while and check in here at CH.com periodically. Definitely excited for making it to Atlanta. Interestingly I have business there the week prior, so taking wife to show her around Atlanta some. We'll definitely see everyone at the dinner and auction, though likely I'll attend the main conferences solo. Looking forward to meeting you all, Rich

I'll be coming in Wednesday sometimes after 7 pm (yes, Racer, I actually listened to you Wink

). I'll be going out thursday to see some local points of interest and to take some pictures.

That restaurant looks pretty good and the prices are excellent! I'd suggest Thursday night if at all possible, considering that Dr. Schor will be having another session later on Friday.

At your speed, we might arrive in Atlanta on WEDNESDAY afternoon, having broken through the space/time continuum in the process . . . . .
