I think I remember SATX-scrub saying something like "this is the safest five guys anywhere right now" :)

I assume a lot of us were carrying but it's only an assumption - concealed really meant concealed, I didn't see anything that would have told me for sure that anyone was packing - and that's how it should be.

Of course, I can't see myself so if I messed that up as the "carry noob" please let me know. (really, though, I'm sure someone would have said something so I figure I was fine :) )

Not next to me, you don't

Definitely - large fries would have been chaos.

Starbucks... a "coffee" place (quotes to emphasize it's kind of coffee), isn't open by 8:48 am???? Sheesh.

Starbucks being open was the only reason it was 'practically' instead of 'absolutely' nothing open.

If I drink much more coffee this morning it's not going to be pretty.

Practically done with the work I had to get done this morning - I'll be packing up and wandering around for a bit. See you all at noon :)

Well - don't I have a lot of time to kill. With practically nothing open yet :D

My CHL instructor was wearing one of those during my class (without "Shoot Me First" on the back ;) ). It kind of made sense because he's a retired cop - but I'm never again going to be able to see someone wearing one without thinking "carrying? probably". Unless they really, really look like they're into fishing ...

I think the ones with "Shoot Me First" on the back might be from the department of redundancy department's new summer line

(I don't really care or think that people shouldn't wear a vest if that's what they want to wear, and before I actually started thinking about carrying and reading stuff I'd have never thought of it as an indication of carry)

I will most likely be wearing cargo shorts and a polo - or maybe a short sleeved button up shirt, untucked. I should have a dark blue hat with a red Spitfire wheels logo on it covering the bald patch on my head. (I'm too fat to skate myself anymore so nowadays I just watch my boys take care of the skating for me)

If I don't wear the hat, I'll be the fat, balding, bearded dude with glasses. ;)

4 - I'm in.

There's one in the Arboretum and ever time I've gone there, it's been four guys and two ladies, or six guys and a lady, etc, and somebody ought to make them change their sign to match, realtime, so they're not falsely advertising.

Ok then - in that case, I will try to make it down, if that's alright with you guys. :)
(Can't guarantee I will - but I'm certainly going to try)

I wish I could get in on this but I have to work at 10am on Saturday and won't be done anywhere near in time to drive down to SA.

This forum noob hopes you guys have a great get together.

Actually, hmm. I have a cellular wifi hotspot, I could maybe drive down beforehand, get my work done at 10am and then already be there (I should be done by 11 or so).

Is there a coffee shop or something close buy that wouldn't be bothered by a guy doing some work on a laptop? (given that I'd buy something and not just be a leech)
