What day off the week/ time of day should our next Geek Zoom be?

[cmh6476 1,250]

And reference time zone cause it matters. 

I did 4pm CT because I thought 5pm wouldn't be too far into the evening for east coast peeps and maybe the west coast geeks could join.   It seemed on the call the east coast people were still working and west coast geeks were by the water

I'm flexible as I can put a generic meeting on the calendar and shut my door and no one would know the difference

Someone suggested before football games but m not sure we have to wait till September

I could do a morning call over coffee as well.

Well I work at 5:00PM EST so I’ll join but most likely won’t be able to speak much depending what’s going on in the office but that day. So I’ll try and work around anytime yous choose.

Honestly it is your call...  Maybe keep a log of when one was held and how many (and who) participants showed up...

After a while, maybe a pattern will emerge with the best time/DOW...

Maybe I didn’t see it what did you guys end up talking about? 
 

I’ll try to make one at some point. I’m also trying to figure out if my wife and kids came in how exactly I explain that.

” oh yeah, these are a bunch of dudes from a message board I’ve been on for two decades.”

uhhh wut?

We made fun of Iowa and how it must suck living there. 
And someone gave Sux a new nickname.

I’m not sure if I wanna end up on a list asking what you mean by an adolescent was very active ha. Oh the whale (JFC me)

Man, I love that spot right there on the beach…. Told my wife one time we’ve been out here so much to the spot. You just see it in your head when you’re not there that when you actually go back you go this is the exact thing thing I see in my head when I’m back home. And you’re like I am really here, right? Only place I’ve ever genuinely sad leaving.
