MobileRead to Houston : Meetup in T minus one week...
Since MR member and participant vivaldirules has already done a stellar job of writing up a very enticing reminder, I'm just going to shamelessly quote him
:
Quoting vivaldirules :
Houston, we're just one week from our MobileRead Meet-up! Anyone and everyone is welcome to come and join us.
I think there are at least half a dozen or more who have indicated they're planning to come including NatCh (from the Republic of Texas Embassy in Tennessee), Ralph Sir Edward (with his brother), Ricky Maveety, Elsi, Amalthia, and yours truly (Arf! - I don't bark, I promise you). And I'm sure Zelda will be there in spirit and probably others, too [
I confirm ! I'm at all the meetups in spirit. --ZP]. And perhaps virtually. I'll have my laptop with me so we can post or chat in real time while sipping iced tea on the veranda.
So put it on your calendar now: the afternoon and evening (centered
around 5:00 pm) on
Saturday, October 4 at the
Panera Bread in
The Woodlands (1201 Lake Woodlands Dr. which is here:
http://maps.yahoo.com/#mvt=m&lat=30....dlands%2C%20tx). Bring your mobile reading devices if you have them and your curiosity if you don't. We should have a great time!
P.S. - Ike? Take a hike! Yes, there's been some hurricane damage and power outages but they won't affect our Meet-up. The Panera Bread is open and ready to serve us, the roads are clear, and there's power. If you're concerned, don't be. But if you'd like to make a contribution to the
American Red Cross Disaster Fund, that would be most helpful and terribly nice of you.
