Slowdive that was a great haul! Was that the Zelda limited collection with Orcainia of time and majoras mask? If it was that by itself is a huge find. The cosby show sealed also great find. What suburbs do you usually go to for garage sales ?

I know we always say this but let's actually do another meet up.

With all of the festivals this summer, we should be able to do something. Or even go for tacos, or something.

Yup, the promo disc! I would prefer not to put my exact location (I don't want to get robbed by a lurker), but I am North of Chicago.

Was the last meet up at that pizza place or did I miss one?

I would really like to trade some guides if you guys have some of the ones I need. The ones I want aren't really worth paying the price to ship them! (Like Manhunt, Manhunt 2, Army of 2 40th day, Metal Gear 4, etc)

Maybe we should have the first annual CAG burrito eating contest!

That's pretty funny as I have a guide for the original Manhunt that I have absolutely no use for and have no problem getting rid of (one of the few penny guides I went for long ago). As for food, I love me some burritos, but I wouldn't mind some smaller (and cheaper) tacos, either; as long as they're awesome, it's all good. Swap meet/get-together sounds fine. StarCraft II LAN parties work for me, too.

OK, no cheap talk here. We have to set something up in the next few weeks. We always say we're going to have a meet up, then it never happens. Let's make it happen this time.

^^^I would prefer it not being on Thursday or Friday just because I garage sale those days.

What days work for you guys?

Tuesday night doesn't work for me for the next two weeks after this one, but I can work around things most other days (or nights).

Ok I'm down for some tacos or burritos. Where at and would a Monday sound good?

Mondays tend to be mixed for me so I'm partial to Wednesdays (at least for the next month), but float a date or three and we can figure out which works best.

What about September 6 or 8 and I'm not sure where is their a decent mexican restaurant expect on the south side so what about at Five Guys at Oak Park?

Anyone else have any other ideas?

Oh, dude. We HAVE to have our meet-up there. I'm out of town this weekend, but we definitely need to check this out. If we do it on a Friday, I can meet you guys there after work (I work out that way, anyways).

Five Guys works for me, too. I don't think we have plans for Labor Day, so I should be around.

I second a meet up at that arcade.

I'm cool with the arcade as the place.

It is $15 to get in and you can stay "as long as you like" according to the dude I just spoke with. Grand opening is this weekend.

In that case, I'm taking a sleeping bag and a cooler. As long as we all play 60 games each, we'd be getting our money's worth.

This places seems our best bet, since the young 'uns can go, too.

If that falls through I'd still be down for some badass tacos.

Oh man! What luck! I live right next to that arcade! In the end, is anybody trying to go to Galloping Ghost for their grand opening Saturday/Sunday?

I am totally creaming my shorts over that game list at Galloping Ghost. I wish I were in town this weekend to check it out.
