Greetings, fellow BeerLeggers!

I was thinking about setting up a monthly virtual BeerLegger event via Zoom. Does this sound interesting to anyone? Would you attend? If so, what do you think is the best time?

It will likely be difficult to make it a time and day that works for everyone, but I'd love to get some feedback so I can schedule it for the best turnout possible. My initial thought is Friday at noon, but time of day is challenging since we are all in different time zones. The reason I'm thinking Friday is because many folks will leave work a little earlier on Fridays, and noon is good because that is lunch time in the western U.S. while also being late enough in the day on the east coast that people there might be able to jump in. I know that's not very comforting to those outside of the Americas, but maybe we can alternate time of day for future meetings if this works out. 🙂

What say you?

excellent idea!?ÿ A couple of other forum boards I follow (not surveying) do this, and its fun to meet (at least virtually) the face behind the name.?ÿ

Yes, but...

We have 2 2019 HP laptops, one for her and one for me. In addition there are at least 3 tablets, 2 desktops, and an ipad. SWMBO has this "thing" about home electronic devices conducting unwanted surveillance upon her person resulting in all electronics in our possession equipped with microphones and/or cameras are "plugged up" or painted over with black nail polish. Don't even mention "Alexa" or "Siri" lest you want a 30 minute diatribe on the evils of spying.?ÿ

Hmmmm.... might be a good excuse for buying a gaming laptop that will run MS flight sim! ?????ÿ

I'd rather participate with video so I can scare everyone. I'll figger something out. I don't think she painted the ipad yet. ?????ÿ

I'll certainly try to be available, but work comes first and I may have to wait for another chance.

Darn good excuse to quit work early!

FL/GA has nothing on scaring people that I don't have! (Unless his avatar is really him!)
