Bay Area Meet (California): February 19th, 2011

There is a covered entrance but the parking is uncovered...maybe you guys can "leapfrog" the gear in by parking by the door and helping load each other in?

Does the hotel have a covered area where cars can park while equipment is being loaded and unloaded?


Jason and Mike, we are SUPER glad that you are BOTH coming to the meet...you really helped this meet take off!

What happens if we have any surplus?
 
My thoughts have been to save some for the deposit on the next Bay Area Meet and then donate the rest to Head-Fi.
 
But, after inquiring on how to do that- Jude requested that we <instead> donate to a charity...very nice!
 
So, I'm throwing this out there (in case we end up flush) to get you thinking about this one...

A worthy local non-profit who do related work to our hobby is H.E.A.R. - ( They gave a presentation at the LA Can Jam) 
H.E.A.R | About H.E.A.R 


I seriously think there should be something in this for the Organizer in Chief.  But the H.E.A.R. idea almost makes too much sense not to do.

Countdown: 4,   32,   1 . . . .
 
 
Soon we will find out if CEE TEE is really a genius event organizer, or if the meet is all only a mirage.

Just to help stir the tempest in a teapot that Jude started in his blog about the Skullcandy Aviators -
 
I stopped at an Apple store on the drive down today and picked some up to use at the meet.

 
Burning them in now, yes? Leaves less to speculation.

Charity - H.E.A.R. is appropriate given our hobby.  A charity near and dear to my heart is the National Down Syndrome Congress, or NDSC:
 
http://www.ndsccenter.org/
 
This is a national advocacy organization for people with down syndrome, and their families.  Forgive my soapbox, I just always offer the NDSC as a worthy recipient when charitable donations are mentioned.  When my lovely little girl was born a little over six years ago, the NDSC and their national convention was the start of our family understanding that everything would be possibly a little tougher, but mostly everything would be fine.  Over the past 6+ years, I've learned that in fact, everything is a bit tougher, sometimes quite a bit tougher.  I have also learned that the journey is quite wonderful.
 
OK, I'm off my soapbox, back to headphones now...

Hello Everyone,
 
I've caught a cold (someone brought it home from Texas, and yes it is Texas sized!) so rather than be unkind, I will sit the event out rather than chance getting anybody else sick.
 
I hope you all have a great time!!!

All of this talk is making me think we should bump up the asking donation to $40.

  j/k... sort of.
 
Will someone make sure to turn off the waterworks tomorrow morning at around 7AM?

Sorry to hear you're sick FLACvest. Get better soon. I'm also sorry that I won't get a chance to try out that optical out cable, but maybe some other time.
