Pilsner Urquell ? Where the devil are you Carroll ?? Jeez ! What ever happened to the "classy" people who drink Sleeman's, or Rickards Red, or Guiness Stout for Pete's sake ! If you keep drinking that stuff, this list will start getting a bad name ! Grin! But on a more serious note, have you noticed that no one has suggested getting together for a "Pub" night? We should consider starting a new tradition of at least one annual Mandrake Newbie List Members "Kegger" ! LOL! I don't know if you folks have it where ever you may be, but there's a group called "Linux Meetup" that runs a site (do a Google on the term ),where anyone can can register, and others in the same area register as well. For each "Meet-Up", one person acts as the host - which essentially means that they pick the location - and everbody goes and socializes. The groups that usually show up are pretty large. Mozilla had one here ( Montreal, Quebec ) for their "1.0" release party, and Linux groups are always doing the same. The meet-ups are monthly, and you can pre-register, or just show up. There are pages on the site where you can post photo's of the event, and a short description. If you find that there is no meet-up for your city/town, etc., you can start one, and other will join up - just to see what's what. Now, back to serious stuff. Sam Adams ? Geesh! LOL! And Carroll, I'm not the new guy here. I already bought, so it's someone else's turn! Didn't you get the invite? Humph! Musta got lost in the mail! Grin! Of course, all those under the legal drinking age where ever they are should disregard the content of this post. Where ever you see the name of an alcoholic beverage, please substitute the words "Root Beer" . Goodnight all ! May you dream of fat, happy penguins all sitting on the face of Bill Gates! ( OOOhhhhh! Too much information! Sorry for the mental image that this leaves behind! ) Lanman
