question, this room in which we're having the majority of the cookout activities, what kind of floor does it have? wood? tile? carpet?

No no. My personality is the pile to the right. The one with little chunks of bone and weird white capsules that reek of digestive juices. The one you stepped in was just excrement.

I heard that somone sugguested to Ryan that we look into laser tag for "getting your geek on". I've heard of a couple places and will check them out.

Any other group activities you all might be interested? Add sugguestions. I will look into them.

Well, the "beating each other with bats" was pretty fun. The hotel wouldn't mind if we did that in the lobby, would they? :wink:

you don't actually have to do it... it's just that CJ wanted to do it at cn expo and we never got the chance and it seemed like a reasonable idea to me.

You know, anything involving me + shooting things whether it be lasers, paint balls, live ammo....it's AAAAAAALL good. :twisted:

But seriously, laser tag sounds like fun.

I think some kind of stand-up comedy might work, just we need a bit of an audio system so everyone can hear. Likewise for Karaoke (the same equipment is used.)

Depending on how many people actually show up determines what's needed. If we have access to a larger conference room type of thing that has a built in sound system, no problem. If it's just a "large room" that everyone fits it comfortably, then it's simply projecting ones voice, which is possible for some of us, the rest are just quiet.

Karaoke requires a but more planning since you need to get access to the equipment to rent.
