    Denver Web Host/Webmaster Happy Hour

    While I realize not everyone does this full-time - sitting here at home all day gives me the itch for happy hour fairly often. Living in LoDo makes that an easy option of course, but my wife isn't always up for it since she's just getting home. It'd be nice to have someone to b.s with about hosting stuff and drink a beer - feel the same? If you're up for a small social of fellow hosting geeks, let's do it - thus far the total is 1, me. Drinking isn't required, but if you want to get together and get to know the other hosts in the Denver area (or at least 1 other one), let me know. Be nice to have a regular day to look forward to, but for now Wednesday the 10th at Palomino's on 16th St at 5pm (Excellent $5 pizzas, 1/2 price appetizers, and good beer prices if you've never been).

    PM me if you're in or need directions.


    Chris

    Sounds interesting. I'll be down there actually in that area Monday the 8th (I have an appointment about 5p). I would imagine there are a number of people in Denver. Hopefully ex-hosting owners can attend

    I hardly see how my being a pervert would matter...wait, was that out loud? j/k of course - anyone is welcome Corey! Palomino isn't 21 only, so even that isn't a requirement, although I suspect a 17 yr old wouldn't have much fun - my old manish 34 doesn't relate well to those yrs any more, I can't remember what no pain in my knees is like.

    Marksy,

    We had a small gettogether here in Toronto where several folks showed up -- it was an enjoyable evening.

    Hope you can arrange the same there! It never hurts to have more local connections and shoot the breeze with folks who can actually understand what we're talking about for once.

    And it looks like I could potentially catch the train out to that area - if it is one the on 16th Street Mall. We never have really gotten down in that area too much. We did eat lunch one at Croc's but that as it.

    I think we are still in the mindset that downtown is so far away - even though it isn't

    If I have the BMW shovelled out by then - I'll try to make it

    And then there were 2! Corey, it is the one on Arapahoe and 16th. Anyone else? Corey is coming from Castle Rock, I'm sure those of you in Denver already for work can pop in.

    I am going to try my best. Would be good to get out. I don't see why there shouldn't be something every so often. If SoftWareRevue can do, we can do it (only better )

    True, although I don't know that Colorado is the center of all web hosting - we do have data393 amongst other DC's. The only stipulation is there will not be any discussion of the conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 and the physics behind metal melting - you will be summarily kicked in the nads and escorted off premises for being a buzz kill.

    (well, realistically, there was a trap door, and Saddam fell right into it.

    We can move it to Monday if you'd like to come Jay - Aren't you down here on Monday anyhow Corey? California St is just around the corner from Palomino, plus it's not worth driving at 5 anyhow w/ the traffic here.

    Don't plan it around me. I will be back out *a lot* over the next few months, so if I miss out on this one, I will catch another.

    Out of a pure sense of duty to drinking, I'll be there Monday 5:30 and Wednesday at 5:00. If you guys, or anyone else, can make it - awesome, no worries if not as well. Just ask the host/hostess for Chris.

    Sounds good. I'll put the address in the GPS and head over after the appt - we usually always have dinner out so a great excuse. I am hoping we will be pretty close.

    Just a heads up - I'll be there ~5 for anyone who wants to come by. I've heard from Corey..and that's about it. It was worth a shot anyhow!
