[tyeise]

Thanks Jill. I suppose my diet cola would count as "suds" if I shake it. <g>

by all means, Tyeise! --- but just warn us before you "pop" the top !!!!

You would get the suds award for that.

Since all the hotels in the Chicago area have unexpected vacancies due to the Cubs collapse (very sad), I'd say the Windy City makes sense now!

[Jeff L]

Chicago would work for me! I am just a little bit south of there. The Cubs.......heh heh...

[Bob Walden]

Danny, we don't call that a collapse, we just call that the end of another season.

PS There's always next year!!!!

I was reading though the posts looking to see if there was anything about a chatroom, that people from this wonderful site might frequent.
The getting together and meeting is a great idea but as many people pointed out.. hard for some since flying is oh so pricey grrr ~ heheh

Has this site ever tried a live chat hosted here, there .. somewhere ?

maybe a nice little hub on mirc ?

could be interesting if not
as it would be great to have real back and forths with people here

just a thought, and if I some how missed this thought being talked about already.. sorry.

Kissed

oh if the mirc/chat idea hasn't happened.. and theres interest.. I do have time to help with that lots

I am a member of cuworld so I can create a room for anyone to enter. Being able to sign up to enter a room is free, creating private rooms is what paid membership gets me.

Anyone curious can visit www.cuworld.com to see how it works. I would be happy to host a room, it can hold up to 12 people at a time for a 3 hour duration. Not real sure when to do it since there are so many time zones represented here ...

Since I'm the one who had coffee and breakfast with Ed, I must say his coffee and hospitality are first class.

I too could handle Chicago as long as I had plenty of time to plan ahead but then I feel bad for all our friends around the world who would think that too far from them. I have to say, It's a great idea but you would have your hands full trying to pull it off I think. But then I guess if we felt that way nothing would ever come to pass. So far I've met 2 members of RP and both were just as nice in person as they are on the site. We seem to have attracted a nice group of people on this site. Even if this doesn't work out Doug is right that if you are heading near a member you would like to see let them know and set up a place to meet like Ed and I did. You might be pleasingly surprised.

Hey, I know...since we're scattered all over the globe, we could get together the RetouchPro way:

Everyone send in a pic of themselves and we'll all montage them together in a photo of our favorite locale!

Oh, and how about a bumper sticker: "Retouchers do it in layers!"

[W. Rose]

Hi Donna,
That sounds like a great idea to me

[denschneider]

I could do Chicago with enough notice

[Jeff L]

Perhaps we should set Chicago up as the meetup and see how many folks would attend. Heck...I would be thrilled just to meet one of you.

This is not the best time of year so maybe try for May or June. If any of you are up for it, drop me a line and we'll see what happens. I think that is enough time to make arrangements for a good price and set up some sort of itinerary.

Just a thought....

[Legacy~Art]

Chicago is alittle too far for me to meet for a coffee...

But i do hope you all have a wonderful time!
