Missed the Meetup

February 7, 2005 10:04 AM

Hi Mefites. I'm sorry I won't be able to make the Atlanta meetup or the Jeopardy tryouts. I'm really upset...I was hoping to meet all of you and see Atlanta, but it's just not going to happen. Some unexpected money things have come up and it's one of those really-bad-timing things. If the tryout was a month later, it'd be no problem. As it is, it's impossible. Thanks for all the good wishes. I'm sure I'll try out sometime in the next year, somewhere, somehow.

That's too bad u.n. I hope that you'll be able to try out again soon.

that sucks--i hope things get better. And Jeopardy will be on for years and years so there's no rush.

Sadness.
Good luck with the money things and the timing things.

ah that's crummy and I was really looking forward to meet you.

I'm still going to plan to push a mefi meetup but you sure will be missed.
