I'll be attending tonight's NELUG meeting at Bison County, in case you're
maintaining any sort of a head count.

Headcount, shmeadcount.

Actually, this time Bison County got all kinds of professional on me about
resevering the room, asking if we'd want it catered or just order from the
menu, etc.  It was kind of weird.  I hope they aren't shifting their policy re:
the room towards something which would make it harder for us to reserve it.

Anyway, I told them 15 people, and so far I think we're on track-ish.  I know
of... (umm, lesse... carry the one...) 10 people who are have said they are
definitely showing up.  Err, make that 11.  Wait, no, 12.  Err, 13.

So if stragglers show up, we should be on-target.  I'm only worried about it if
my estimate is *way* above the actual turnout.

Not sure if I'll be there early
enough to visit TCS beforehand, but I'll certainly try.

In all honesty, given the amount I've spent on LEGO recently (new sets and
all), I intend to avoid it.

I'll be bringing a rather silly, holiday-themed MOC with me this evening.  I
even got my NL-spousal unit to help me build it.  There's hope for her yet...

Will she be coming to the meeting to help show it off?

I, too, will be bringing a MOC.  I built this cool motorised Ferris Wheel.
I'll also be bringing an old train set I acquired to show off.  Maybe if I'm
feeling spunky I'll auction it for beer.

(...) Shouldn't be. Unless my head explodes between now and 7:30 then my wife and I will be showing up. I don't have any *new* MOCs to bring, but I may try to transport Herr Doktor Cornelius and his steam-powered mech. J (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
