>>i whip through the boards
Now see, I'm like you at times, too..I first read that as something like, " I [I'm carrying] or [have a] whip through the boards"..which I'm sure might be useful at times, but could also mean trouble...
now you be careful with that thing, rain...:-D
> hehe i hope more people vote :-)
Me, too, me, too.
PS - I know, I'm soooo strange...
PPS - oops, I'm getting a little Social...must keep it Admin

In reply to Re: good point, I'd prefer 6/11 or 6/18 (nm), posted by Dr. Bob on March 30, 2005, at 22:31:44
Hmm, not sure what "good point" refers to, but thanks for your preferred dates. I think that's fairly important to know ;-)
We've had only 11 posters vote (12 when Mel sees my post, I'm sure), not including yourself. One person said she didn't "notice the notice" on each board for a long time. I wonder if that could have been true for others? (I thought it was prominent, but that's just me)
I suppose I'm wondering what kind of response - numbers-wise - you were anticipating? Twelve seems low to me. And I'm not alone...

But again, I don't have enough prior experience, or a strong enough "feel" for the group/community as a whole to base anything on. I don't know quite what the "original" idea for the Babble birthday party entailed, either.
Thoughts? Suggestions?

I had no idea what to expect! I don't think 12 would interest CNN, but I think it would plenty for a good time. :-)

Is that what the committee thinks should be the next step? :-)

2 cents:
I rather think that we've heard from those who have a preference for when the party should be already.
But a reminder of when the party is to be held and an opportunity to be included in the count would be a good thing. Like a "sign up here" notice.

I agree. There's probably no need to repeat the "pick a date" step again.
The final count for choice of dates is:
13 posters voted (including Dr Bob)
6/4 - 9
6/11 - 4 (plus one "maybe")
6/18 - 5FYI, I can now only attend on 6/11. As it appears that probably won't be the date, maybe I should bow out of the committee now. Those committee members who are actually going, can probably plan the rest themselves - especially with quite a small group. I'd still be willing to help in any way I can, though.
Or I can stay on the committee. I just don't know if I'm comfortable having input on any decisions arranging a party I can't attend :-(
Either way, I'm fine with it.

> BobSure. I guess I didn't mean to emphasize that part. More the idea that a small group (guessing 6-9, realistically, will actually come?) may not need a committee at all. If so, they can pretty much "be their own committee" at this point, without me, if it ends up I'm the only committee member who can't make the date selected.
As you said, anyone can still offer input. As posters have done all along :-)

> As you said, anyone can still offer input. As posters have done all along :-)I may not be the only one thinking this way, but I could not commit to coming, as far as planning purposes go. That doesn't mean I can't come, period. I can't even estimate the likelihood, yet, but who knows? Just hoping you build a little flexibility into the planning.
