    once again. What're everyone's plans? Here in Canada, it is another long weekend with Monday being Thanksgiving day. I'll be spending another great weekend with family at the cottage where we'll be having our annual Thanksgiving Beach Bonfire on Saturday, another fabulous Thanskgiving BACON Covered Turkey dinner on Sunday and hopefully everyone will be able to wake up on Monday and safely return home. :cool: Wishing everyone a great weekend. :)

      Portishead is playing tonight in Montreal, it's an outside show, the weather will be fantastic. After that, nothing planned for 3 days; except doing a bit of cleaning ...

      Watched code never compiles.

        Looks like it is going to rain all weekend here. As I mentioned this morning, my wife's best friend is in labour so there may well be a trip to see the baby at some point. Yay! I'm 100101 on Sunday so I shall mostly be spending the day weeping for my lost youth.

        Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                I plan to spend about 14 straight hours playing board games tomorrow (Well, overlapping a bit with Sunday)... I am such a geek.

                    I'm outa here in the next half hour or so and then a 'normal' weekend. Fly over to Budapest tonight, maybe a beer or six en-route. Might go down to Fured tomorrow to see the builder, otherwise relaxification and kissing with Mrs Wife. Then back to London Monday and the fun of work.

Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

                      Taking the little one to the zoo. It is going to be sunny and in the 80's here in Wisconsin. Nice weekend for some fires and cookouts and of course a ton of brews. Might as well enjoy it before it becomes the frozen tundra again. Have a great weekend all.

                                Hey, nothing wrong with marathon board games. We do it all the time at the cottage on rainy days. We once did an 8 hour stretch of Monopoly with 9 of us playing. Had to use the play money from three games to have enough! :)

                                  Nah, not Monopoly... I'm in a strategy board gaming group... About 20-30 of us show up every weekend, and we play all sorts of games... It's a blast, but I sometimes feel a little too geeky when I'm taking the subway home at 3am :)

                                      Hey, nothing wrong with marathon board games. We do it all the time at the cottage on rainy days. We once did an 8 hour stretch of Monopoly with 9 of us playing. Had to use the play money from three games to have enough! :)

                                        We played Monopoly when I was a kid until the first time I beat my dad, after which we were never allowed to play it again. Before I was married, myself and a few friends used to play it on Christmas Day each year with much drinking. Don't think we ever finished a game.

                                        Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                                          Nah, not Monopoly... I'm in a strategy board gaming group... About 20-30 of us show up every weekend, and we play all sorts of games... It's a blast, but I sometimes feel a little too geeky when I'm taking the subway home at 3am :)

                                          Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

                                          Well actually with 9, Monopoly becomes very much a strategy game. Think partnerships that only last for one or two rolls of the dice. :)
