I think it's supposed to go something like you yelling something about significant whitespace and explicit `self`, I yell something about slow interpreters and open classes, we yell something about each others mom then each throw a girly punch that misses. We then mend our differences and agree to mock Java in the pub. *ducks*

As long as the rumble is well choreographed, I'm game.

Eric, I'm ready to rumble anyday. (Puts up his Python/Django dukes - :D).

Please don't think our little group is ant-LPDN or anything; certainly not! We just wanted to build a Ruby/Rails centric group and because of current schedules, Tuesdays (we only meet every other week) is the best day for us, at least for now.

We are, however, preparing for a full-on battle in the streets where the blood will flow as high as a horses bridle ... just in case.

Hopefully in the future our group can resolve its scheduling so everybody can mix and matches as it pleases.

Just posted tomorrow night's LPDN. Come out for some Italieek or Greian, or is it just Italian/Greek food? Anyway, the more the merrier.

Hey guys - thoughts on where/when to meet next week? There's the TweetUp next week on Tuesday at Jo Shmo's. Should we still do something on our own?

Thanks for the bump Eric. I've been meaning to enabled Chat on this site as well, was just waiting for the version with the bar at the bottom. So if there's anyone who wants to chat w/o opening up Colloquy, you can do it here too :-)

Hey all. Was thinking about this the other day and just got reminded of it at dinner tonight. I think it'd be pretty cool to have a #lawrence IRC channel on Freenode. I went ahead and registered one and will start hanging out in there.

Think a mostly social channel with a hint towards programming and all things nerdy. I'd love to hear what people think, or see them drop by IRC and stay for a while :)

There it's up now! :) sign up while it's hot!

Cheap drinks on Tuesday is definitely Vermont St BBQ - $2 or $2.5 Free State pints. I generally don't go there, though, since I'm a vegetarian :-)
