Great!
I just called Jon Dugan;
He said he'll post something by Thursday about dates & ordering;
I've penciled in the 20th, 27th, and 4th (following 3 Saturday Houses.)
Does anyone know how to add calendar entries to the Giraffe Labs calendar?
Or perhaps we should make a Saturday House calendar?
I'd like to add:
* the tentative Boarduino dates (20th, 27th, Oct 4th)
* the Sacred Books time (12-2 Saturday)
Take care,
Lion {:)}=
