Ok, it's official, the family and I are going to the Baltimore Aquarium June 26-June 27th. We'll definitely be there, and hope to see many other TONMO'ers there as well!

So far, it sounds like Carol and WhiteKiboko are quite probable if not definite.

I suppose festivities may depend on the turnout, but so far I figure we can spend Sat. afternoon at the aquarium, maybe go back to our rooms real quick and then meet up for dinner and a few drinks or something.

This ain't no official TONMO Convention, Melissa's got that one in control, and is coordinating that with Dr. O'Shea and some aquariums. That one should be an international event, and probably won't be happening until sometime later... as Greg says, you'll be there, or you'll be square.

For this one, if you're within striking distance of Baltimore, you really oughtta come, cause we'll definitely be looking forward to seeing you. If you're from far away, you might want to think about coming anyway... The party is what we make of it!

I shall ask my better half, and see what voodoo we can do!
If we miss it, please take lots of pics!
Greg

. as Greg says, you'll be there, or you'll be square.


sigh.......I guess I'm gonna be square then :roll: ...........still I've been a science nerd for years so a little squareness shouldn't be much of a problem :?

J

:spongebo: <=, Thats me, all square :(

Me too. :(

:?: We don't even know yet where or when the "be there or be square" event is being held yet!

What about down under :mrgreen:

J

Well, I do think there should eventually be a TONMOcon down under... :|

Melissa's in charge of the first "official" TONMOcon event (and the rest thereafter if she's game for it...)

If you can't make it to Baltimore for this TONMO gathering, no worries, I'm sure there will be pictures aplenty... hopefully sans mugshots...

Drat, I'll be on the wrong tectonic plate for this gathering! Down under would be more feasible in June. We may have to set one up for ourselves, Jean.

Post the photos so everyone will be excited for the next party!

Melissa

In Southeast Asia :heee: ?

Hi Joel

I arrive in Hong Kong April 29!

Melissa

sorry to post late, but I frankly can't make it on that date, my summer course starts right on those dates. Possinly the 9th or 10th might be a great time for me as I can schedule a break for those times, hrm, will see what I can do but as of this moment Im pretty square. :cry:
Im sure to make it to TONMOCON I though, I might have to miss out on the mini tonmocon, but no worries, enjoy yoursleves, those fo you which are sure to go, don't get dissapointed on me not going guys, sorry tony and mel', Ill be sure to make the "real one." :)

Monterey Bay... Monterey Bay... :heee:

Just kidding! I hope you all have fun. My wife and I are headed to the Bay Aquarium that day (the 27th of June is my birthday).

Sounds fun though!

John

Great, that's all I needed, another downside to living in California.
:roll:

the 27th of June is my birthday

Put it on the Calendar.... it'd make three in a row... Jean, You, Me....

Melissa, you're just a Continent-hopping fiend arent you?

would you beleive mine is the 25th????

As is my mom's.... plus my parents anniversary is the 29th....

Melissa, you're just a Continent-hopping fiend arent you?

:mrgreen: This time it's work. So who's in Hong Kong/Bangkok and where is a reasonable place for an Asian mini-Tonmo.con or birthday party?

Melissa

My mother-in-law's is the 26th...

My Daughters is the 25th and I only live about 1 hour away so maybe I can bring the kids and wife to the aqaurium in Baltimore. Did anyone hear about the ferry in baltimore capsizing during a storm last week? :(

Hi and did I say :welcome: !!

I heard about the ferry. Really sad. I am going with my 6 yr. old daughtor! Should be fun!!!

Carol

Well June Certiany was a busy month, as I turn 30 this June 25. May look into vacationing, as my GF has been busting my ..... to go on a vacation together. :roll:

Bigshowb, would be great to have you there! Let us know what the family says. Same for you Thurge!

So it's me, WK and Carol.... Anyone else?

's gonna be fun...

:shock:

I've been away too long; WK just brought this to my attention!

I have to check the calendar (lectures, doumentary airing dates), but a holiday is most definitely in order, and I couldn't think of a better way to spend it, and reason to meet (even a few) of you! It's summer then isn't it?

Put me down as a very serious possibilty. Had a dream (I think I was awake when I had it) that I met you, Tony, as a pseudonym. Best meet the man himself I think!

:thumbsup: That would be AWESOME! A truly international event! Keep us posted!!

Could be very interesting!!!! Jess is excited!!!

So Doc......Should I start signing my posts......

My real name is Steve????? :mrgreen:

I'm really sorry to miss this. Friends and I had a great time there in December, and ate someplace good nearby. When I remember the name of the place, I'll pass it along.

Melissa

I would love to go, but you know how things are. I wont miss the real TONMOCon though, will show up to that one! :D

Next one's in CA

Uhhh..... why March 20th?

Hey, mini-TONMOcon is just about a month away! Dr. O, how are your prospects??

8)

grrrr.... clouds on my horizon.... will keep you guys updated but my status went from probably to possibly....

:| Bummer, sir! Let us know... it takes more than 2 for it to be a "mini-TONMOcon", says I... otherwise, it's kinda "the Morelli's and the Sauer's meeting up at the Baltimore Aquarium". :mrgreen:

Last call...

Location: Baltimore Aquarium

Date: Saturday, June 26

Agenda:

11am - Dolphin show!

Lunch time - lunch! :)

Afternoonish - wander the aquarium, spending extra time marvelling at the octopus tank.. wonder if they have any cuttles, like NEAq?

Dinner time - dinner? drinks? debauchery?

:octopus:

Sounds like fun, but a little far!

Nancy

as far i remember, no cuttles, but i dunno what the travelling exhibit is....the shark room is pretty cool though.... most unfortunate, but i am a scratch.... bills piled up for me at the end of june ( the only creatures that couldve stopped me!)

i'd recommend catching an O's game.... theyre home from the 22nd thru 27th (yankees/braves).... plus it be a chance for you folks from the philly area to actually see a team that has won the world series..... :twisted:

Hopefully, i will assault the Balt/Philly region before late Fall.... so anyone in the area give a yelll and i'll try to keep you abreast of things....
