AllegroCon - Chicago '09

I actually don't think any regulars claim to be from the Chicago area, but ... there is an international Allegro meet-up scheduled for this Tuesday (May 19th) evening in Chicago.

The tentative plan is to meet at or near Union Station, so it should be easy to get to from anywhere in the Milwaukee/Chicago area.

Evert (Old World) and I (New World) will be there. :o

The agenda includes:

  • Recording a live a.cc album,

  • Releasing Allegro 5.0, and

  • Surfing the Internet.

Recording? Sounds fun. I take it you are the singer and lyricist.

I'll probably be at North Western until 17:00, I'll try to work out at what time I can be in Chicago proper.

HAH! I doubt that :P

I see you haven't installed the new time travel addon. ;)

??? You guys got that finished in the time I've been ignoring the list? A watched pot does indeed not boil.

So absolutely nothing will get done because we would all be here on a.cc (Surfing the Internet) ;D

You've been ignoring the list?
Anyway,

no, it's not done. But there is a time in the future when it will be done, so if you can use time travel you can get it from the future and release it now without having to do the work to actually finish it.

So far my attempt at humour.

Pretty much since my little fit, yes. But I've been ignoring a lot of email lately. :o

Allegro con tomorrow in Toronto!

I'll be in Toronto the week after, from Tuesday to Friday.
Ok, I'll be in Toronto this coming Sunday and Thursday too, but just the airport. Not that I'm far from Toronto at other times...

Pretty much since my little fit, yes.

Sorry to hear that. :-/ Hope you'll start reading again once you've recovered a bit...

Chicago isn't that far, but I probably won't consider making the trip (I never bothered to plan for it) unless Samuel Henderson wants to go as well.

Not sure. I prefer a little more structure ;) the way things have been managed just irk me.

I laughed at the attempt rather than the humour. ;D

Yeah, we could probably squeeze it in between the discussions of "metric vs imperial" and "firearm violence." Although it may have to wait until after "pros and cons of free health care."

Hmm, I live in Denver, so Chicago's a long walk. Almost 1.700,00 kilometers. Plus, I have a CCW test that day. After that I'll probably light up some medical marijuana.

Damn, I thought this idea died when it was proposed (what was that, 3-4 weeks ago?). If I had known we were actually going to do it, I would have made plans. As it stands, it is highly unlikely I'll manage to make it.

Dammit, why can't we have an AllegroCon in Franklin, Kentucky?! >:(

I think I started all those in some way in recent threads. I'm so bad ;)

How many people constitute an AllegroCon? If I have one by myself would that be one?

I'll come Neil if we can go round legoland, and then have a lovely lamb lunch in the middle of Windsor.
