This Saturday, 2 pm, at Steph's house in Oak Park.  So the exact viewing details
of this one is a bit TBD.  We are going to *try* to finish up "Being Human"
since we started the first 3 epsiodes of the season last month, but that is
dependent on us being able to find good enough quality uploads streaming online
Saturday.  Don't think there is any new Who right now, but various good back-up
DVDs will be at hand -- I have the series pilot movie "Caprica", or we can pop
in some random comedy movie.   It'll be viewer's choice, depending on
attendance.  :)   And in a pinch there's always chitchat!  :P    (No worries, we
know what we're doing, we're experienced professionals.....)

Potluck, so we have food and snacks to munch on while we figure out what we're
watching.   :)

See ya Saturday!

Email me at frellingbored@... if you need my address.

It's a two-fer this month: first, everyone's invited to a movie date at the
Truxel Marketplace theatre (Truxel & I-80) for the first showing of '9' at 11.
Then at 2, it's Steph's, where we'll have the first series of Being Human.
Altogether, stuff is gonna go until 7 or 8, so if you're gonna do both, make
sure to caffeinate appropriately.

For directions to Steph's if you've never been, send either one of us an email
for the address.

Also, I plan on showing up early, 11 am, to hang out in front outside the
theater.  We could do a bring-your-own-coffee pre-movie hang-out if anyone wants
to join me.  :)

The good news is that the early bird showing is just $5.50!  Let me know if you

Turns out that tomorrow is *not* going to work out for the usual 3rd-Saturday
Sac Whovians meetup, so we're going to reschedule, probably to next Saturday
(July 25). (So *don't* show up at my place tomorrow!)  :P  I apologize for any
inconvenience this last minute change causes, but hope you find something else
fun to do on the fine Saturday that is tomorrow!
Thanks,
Steph

Hey, Sam & Vicki,
Is there any new Dr. Who or Torchwood that we haven't seen as a group yet?

If not, on the 18th (third Sat), do we want to come to watch not-as-new or older
Dr. Who (or something else?) at my place?  Or at your place?  Or do we want to
do a Harry Potter matinee for those who couldn't make the midnight showing?

Yeah, I know, silly me trying to schedule more than 24 hours in advance!  :P  ;)

--Steph

That's right, TOMORROW. Because EVERYONE knows that needing more than 15 hours
notice of an event is for LOSERS.

::headdesk::

Okay, so, yeah. Meetup tomorrow at my place (that's me, SAM, not her, STEPH -
going to Steph's house tomorrow will only lead to sadness). Email me at
swamp_dragon@... or call 916-927-9662 for the address. It'll most
liekly be 3rd season Who, as I realized while looking at my books yesterday that
I had forgotten the existence of Martha. Shame.

Potluck as always, but REMEMBER: we are The Crazy Cat Ladies. Meaning that THERE
ARE FIVE CATS IN THE HOUSE and if you are ALLERGIC you may want to either a)
bring a shitload of meds or b) run away.

Sorry, I'm out of town this weekend, so we can't do the
third-Saturday-of-the-month Dr. Who meetup at my place, so consider it cancelled
for this month unless Sam or someone else wants to host it or reschedule it,
sorry!  See ya guys next time!

I can play multiregion DVDs on my computer hooked to the TV.

I think I'll try to make this one.  I can bring old school Who on DVD.

Here's what I'm proposing, pending Sam's final ok:

This Saturday (May 16), we'll meet at my house in South Oak Park, starting 12 noon.  We'll have waffles-made-fresh for lunch!   I'll supply the waffles & coffee.  Maybe someone can grab some syrup or soda from their fridge, or maybe some cookies or chips for later, or maybe someone wants to pitch for bacon? but no worries, we'll probably have enough even if nothing is brought.  Then we'll probably watch some old Dr. Who.  Old School Dr. Who.  The stuff on videotapes.  :)

The other day upon the stair

I met a man who wasn't there

He wasn't there again today

I think he's from the CIA!

Great!  It's on!  1 pm, my house tomorrow (Saturday), to watch CSI: A Space
Oddity and the Doctor Who Easter Special. :)

(Sam, Sorry I didn't IM you back, I missed your IM, I was away from my computer
when it was logged on, and then the next time I logged on was at a different
computer. But yeah, your assumption was right.)

Thanks,
Steph

It was GREAT! Very Galaxy Quest-like! One of the best spoofs on Star Trek that
I've seen! They poked fun at TOS mostly, with a little TNG thrown in. They also
poked fun at fans too. It was very cute. The costumes were great. They did
paradies (spell?) of Gamesters of Triskelion and The Cage. Hodges was the
Kirk/Pike hero with a ripped shirt. I also love CSI and it was a good show for
them. They usually do "themes" well. This one is not coming off my Tivo until
the DVD comes out! If you missed it, I'm sure it'll be on YouTube soon, if not
already.... Did any of you notice that Ron Moore and "Boomer" from Galactica
were in the audience at the Con. Also that "Ellen Tigh" was the professor? 
Naren Shankar (TNG writer with Ron) has been a staff writer on CSI for a long
time. This episode was a natural and VERY well done."
