Also, I would like to put out there;
I purposed a trick idea I have been “Throwing” around and actually landed it for the first time on the meeting stream!
Think I am going to call it “Brain Fart” if it becomes a thing.

I can honestly say I feel like you may have been one of a few here who have seen me kinda go downhill a bit. I’m still holding on and it means a whole lot just having people along with me. I have an absolutely amazing family. My wife and I have always been “that” couple that just gets along and really respects and loves one another. That really rubbed off on our kids who are amazing young people, so I always had a very strong support system at home, but to come to know such special people who would come to know me just because we share a love for a toy. It’s really just astounding. Maybe tomorrow I can say more but…dang…it’s 12:26am and I’ve had a lot to drink…

I was so glad to see so many faces last night! I’m another who doesn’t tend to socialize much. It’s overwhelming much of the time for me. Zoom stuff works amazingly well, and it’s nice to laugh and talk with folks, share stories, and get to see all the cool stuff y’all are doing!

Yo! Same here!
I think it’d be really cool to have a weekly time slot where we open the zoom meeting for a throw sesh. Doesn’t have to be a “club meeting” every week, but I do think a weekly throw sesh, that we can jump in and out of as we please would be really cool!

I have something I need to put out there too. I meant to say something last night during the meeting, but the opportunity passed too quickly lol
Cody! Your ‘stache is effing glorious and fills me with envy that burns deep in my upper lip. Proud of you!

Call your doctor immediately if you experience burning in your upper lip as this could be a sign of a serious condition.

For those who missed the meeting last night. I gave a special sneak peek of the Throw-Yo holiday strings:
Ugly Sweater Emulsion (nylon, rayon, trilobal)
Yukon Cornelius Elixir (trilobal)
5th Ave Vapor (wooly nylon, trilobal)
We also discussed Workhorse string color for the two known colorways and the clear, and I’ll have pics once I whip some up.

That 5th Ave Vapor is gorgeous! 
Sorry I missed the meeting, I had some church stuff going on.
Is this a volunteer to coordinate a weekly standing throw sesh?

I’m not certain that I’m the guy for the job.
Maybe?
I’m very tech-illiterate and have a very hard time managing responsibilities responsibly, but I’d certainly be willing to give it a try if someone could walk me through it.

Discord could help in this way too. Easy to hop on and off video with your phone. Just a boomers video chat channel that’s always clickable and others can see you’re in there if they want to join.

Oh cool!
I only ever get on discord for “the board” so I’m unfamiliar. I’ll have to check it out.
That definitely sounds easier than doing a zoom meeting, if I’m understanding correctly. So, it would just be a channel that would always be “open”, that anybody could come and go as they please, without anyone having to “start” the meeting?

Exactly. It’s just a channel on the discord and when you click it you enter a video chat room on the app. We could even have an easy password on it like “BOOMERS” so it’s easy to get access but not any random person can enter without doing a little research.
Oh and before you click it there’s a drop down that shows everyone already in it, so you know if it’s empty or poppin’.

Tech I can help with. we have several folks in that space able to help out.
responsible. I mean have you seen me. I’m not exactly on time with anything if committed to.
honestly willingness to help and the ability to say, “hey we going to meet at x time and date” and telling whoever is helping you to setup the meetup is all that’s needed. Your basically just an event coordinator in this role if you so choose to volunteer and at any time you can say nah I’m not feeling it.
Thats a good idea we can get Jake to set that up for us very easily then whoever (aka @Yodaddyo) can just drop a message here saying “yo we on the discord” or whatever
