Sun wearing pink hat
Dances as summer echoes
Hearts rejoice in song

See you Tuesday!

Directions are here Google Maps if anyone needs them.

See you Tuesday!

June Geek Gather

06.01.10

“This is June, the month of grass and leaves . . . already the aspens are trembling again, and a new summer is offered me. I feel a little fluttered in my thoughts, as if I might be too late. Each season is but an infinitesimal point. It no sooner comes than it is gone. It has no duration. It simply gives a tone and hue to my thought. Each annual phenomena is reminiscence and prompting. Our thoughts and sentiments answer to the revolution of the seasons, as two cog-wheels fit into each other. We are conversant with only one point of contact at a time, from which we receive a prompting and impulse and instantly pass to a new season or point of contact. A year is made up of a certain series and number of sensations and thoughts which have their language in nature. Now I am ice, now I am sorrel. Each experience reduces itself to a mood of the mind.”
- Henry David Thoreau, Journal, June 6, 1857

See you Tuesday!

May Geek Gather

05.07.10

Sorry this didn’t get posted earlier, it’s just been that kind of week.

April showers bring May flowers, and snow! WTF? Join us at the Chatterbox Cafe in St. Paul, home of vintage video games, good food, delicious micro-brew, and strawberry lemonade.

April Geek Gather

04.08.10

There were no lions, only lambs, so will there be April showers? Will they bring May flowers? What I can tell you is that it’s time for another Geek Gather and that brings us back to Wilde Roast — home of good food and WiFi that works.

See you Tuesday!

March Geek Gather

03.03.10

What’s the saying for March? In like a lamb, out like a lion, gather like a geek? It’s time for another Geek Gather and we’re back at the Chatterbox this month. Come for the chatter. Come for the camaraderie. Come for the strawberry lemonade.

February Geek Gather

Wilde Roast is our venue this month. Will it snow this time around too? (It was coming down pretty hard when we were there in December.) Come for the delicious food; stay for the scintillating conversation.

See you there!

January Geek Gather

01.05.10

Another year is upon us, as is another Geek Gather! Join us at the Chatterbox for conversation food, and strawberry lemonade (or with the cold could they be strawberry lemon slushies?)

December Geek Gather

12.04.09

It’s time for Geek Gather for December. We’re back to Wilde Roast this month. Sadly, the Parlor Room isn’t available this time around (I checked last week), but there’s usually plenty of room even if we can’t steal power for our gear.

See you next week!

August Geek Gather

08.20.09

Here we are, August, and time for another Geek Gather. Sorry it’s late this month, but with all the conflicting schedules it’s getting harder to find an agreeable date.

Come join us at Wilde Roast Cafe. The food is good, the desserts are delicious.

We’ll take over the parlor room, if possible, but they haven’t responded to my email yet so who knows. Otherwise, just find the group that doesn’t make any sense and it’s probably us.
