    me too ;)

    As I'll be pretty busy with the election campaign during September, I'd prefer someplace sometime in October. I even had a location to propose (although not checked if/when available): http://www.roterochs.de/english/

    It's 40 km north of Nuremberg and a very nice inn from the 19. century with affordable accomodation and fine Frankonian food. I know the owner and I've been there several times with various groups of people.

    October is too early. November, perhaps. We are planning a trip to Lower Frankonia in the second half, some 2 hours away by train (or 1 hour by car). No tickets yet.

    Ok, so November, then.

    May I ask who'd like to come?
    If it's more than just 3 or 4 people, I'd be prepared to organize it.

    Yes, it will be more than 3 or 4 people.

    It might be as much as 5 or 6.

    Though i think it will be much more

    I think we are looking at about 20 people all in.

    I'm not playing games. I've been to the Roter Ochs several times with groups about that size (It's kind of an insider tip in a certain part of the German IT community, probably because the keeper used to be a regular in news://de.alt.sysadmin.recovery a while ago - while mew and others were as well)

    I read this right - you'd be there? Well, this isn't Black Forest, this is Frankonia, but nevertheless... We might have a chance to visit Nuremberg, which imo is always worth a visit.

    I'll call Konny (the owner of Roter Ochs) and ask, what weekends might be available.

    Okaye, lets dissecate my short answer to Illbran.
    But not only.

    The message subject is for fjr2p.

    Then the black forest is a country reference, I could as well have mentionned about: cuckoo, Which by the way, homonymously means hello in my language.

    Hallo gs!

    Does "High hill!!" mean something? Yes it does! It is a way to greet Illy and telling him that I see him -from here- too far away, too far up, if you will. I regret that, anyway.

    The beating heart thingy was for the tempo.

    Skyping at a cam was the point; I will not be there physically...

    Gosh! all this, for that.

    All you be well

    Oh i see.

    It was a Haiku after all.

    Just saw this (unless my eye subliminally scanned it).

    I never could understand them. Or how they are supposed to be made.
    I can write poetry and understand its heart, but for me the Haiku is a mystery.

    I like it that way.
    One must maintain some innocence, i feel.

    The planned location at Forchheim would only be available on November 2nd/3rd or 9th/10th. Or on the first weekend in December.

    Pity. Anyway - you did start some activity towards arranging a meeting - and a few months of notice - specially outside of the holiday season - was scarce.

    So I hope (to GS) that no damage has been done. Note to myself: I must open my schedule to friends, and make every schedule slacker.

    I was a bit raw. I'd been on an intense week long hacking run with virtual machines.

    I got some wires crossed.

    Can you ever forgive me?

    I thought so.

    It's game still on.

    The location has slightly changed, but it's not too far away.

    Still for November, which is still another month or two.
    Jesus, how much notice do you need ;-).


    Please mail me for details. Might be a bit difficult seeing as only two people have my mail but hey, you know who you are.

    It's going to be a barn storming romper stomper of a get-together. There will either be great celebrations or great angst. Haven't been to a good funeral in a while so it might still be fun. Sign up now while you can. Shame no one has anyones's emails any more and all the boards are locked. Oh well. We make the world we live in. Still the offer is there, you can't ever say it wasn't.

    And this is going to be one fuck of a party!

    You might think I'm joking, but er, those that make it will know. We have something very very special this year.

    Anyway. Please get in touch with me if you can. It's call my bluff time, so er, please call me and call my bluff. You will be glad you did.
