We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

"Setup", at least on my part, will be limited to bringing in the cooler w/ ice cream.
Not planning on streamers & party hats.

Do you want anyone to bring anything? I'd be okay with throwing a dish of something or other together.

Darn I thought party hats would have sent MPD over the edge, but no need to rub their noses in it I guess.
Giving up civil rights for security is a certain way to lose both!

The shop sells drinks & some nibbles, much like Starbuck's (but better),NoTolerance said:
and I've arranged to have one of the other regular customers bring his food cart, which sells brats & such.
So with ice cream for dessert I think the bases are covered.
Of course, I've rarely seen anyone turn down chocolate chip cookies...

May this event be a huge hit! From the land of freedom & sun I wish you all the best.

Two people, completely independent of each other (and I doubt they know each other) have suggested I invite various combinations of Chief Flynn, the DA, & the local MPD district officers.
I've invited my friend who happens to be employed as an MPD officer, & he might have mentioned it to the people he works with.
The rest (including Sheriff Clarke & his deputies) are welcome to show up as long as they behave themselves nicely & don't bother my friends or I, but I'm not going to contact them & they shouldn't be too surprised to have a cautious reception.

See you in a few minutes.
Reminder to those without CCL:
If it's raining, don't cover up your handgun with a shirt or jacket, while dealing with the rain. We haven't had much practice dealing with that situation this summer.

A good time was had, along with brats & ice cream sandwiches. :lol:
Bob (the owner) says we're welcome back any time.
I think my throat is a bit raw from talking so much.
Wish we'd been on the ball enough to get a picture with the deputy who showed up. Bob says he lives across the street, & would have been completely OK with that. A nice change from my last interaction with LEO.
And I was an idiot... left my car window down 1cm erso, thinking the first line of showers would be the only one.
Le sigh.
The car seat & carpeting will dry out.
Hope the rest of you left before this current storm hit.

Had a great time, enjoyed the crew and the brew(root beer actually).
Fresh cooked brats and sweet corn, sassy women, nasty looking guys... summer in Milwaukee!
MKEgal, thanks for the ice cream sandwiches for dessert, too.
