Fw: [UFO Chicago] Social Life

[Thomas]

Accidently posted straight to Pedro... so now for the rest of you:



I think that'd be cool, but a little big to arrange.  I'll volunteer my
(girlfriends) rather small car to help get the pedestrian members of the
group who'd like to go.

But I also thing some local things involving no driving or reservations
would be cool... maybe a midnight movie at the Village or something else
more or less central.  Ok, a movie is a terrible social event if you want to
talk, but you get the idea.  I think one big event like your GA idea
surrounded by a bunch of smaller less planned events would help make us one
tight nit little group... is it a stretch to say UFO Chicago might also
stand for Unusually Friendly Organisation of Chicago? (Unnaturally Friendly
didn't sound quite right).
