I'm proposing a date of 9/8/06 with someone else to pick place. I'd prefer American fare but Ledo's (let's switch it up)
I propose Hard Times in Woodbridge since Randy mention he would love to have us simply to cause discussion.
hello everyone. i'm sure most of you don't recognize me as i don't post too much on here. i really am not able to oc all that much so i don't have any good stories, but i put my 2 cents in when i can. i have been visiting this site for quite some time now and really appreciate all the help you all are giving to newbie oc'ers like myself. it wasthis site that really gave me the confidence to start. so i've been oc'ing for a few months now with absolutely no problems. because of this i've been wanting to go to one of your meetings and meet some fellow oc'ers, as none of my friends in the nova area even own, never mind carry (most think i'm a little crazy for carrying as much as i do, cc or oc). that being said, on the one hand,everything that happened at hard times has seriously turned me off to that place. if you're going to have a policy, make it universal, not just some of the time when it pleases or best comforts you. be true to your philosophies. but, they are obviously willing to compromise, so i guess i have to give them some credit. so on the other hand i agree with rabbit and say have it at hard times and see how themanager really feels, when he sees, i don't know, a dozen or so people come walking in packing, who knows, maybe this will actually help him become more comfortable with it in his entire establisment, not just the dining facility, seeing the caliber of people (law abiding citizens) that carry. plus it's right down the street from me so it's a lot easier to get too. which is one of the big reasons i haven't made it to the other meetings, too far away. but anywho, that's my 2 cents, hope it helps. everyone take care and keep fighting the 2a fight, it's much appreciated.
