Just stopped by, but apparently, it's already over. Sorry I missed you. (Yeah, I'm a bit late, but it's only 12:40a.m. here, so it's not unreasonable for a Saturday. :-) )
Your name came up today. What a discussion we had over the evolution of FSM from the original b&w “mags” to color magazines to CDs to website to messageboard to Zoom. And how we have aged in the process and where we are now having received the education we have—by teaching each other!

Yes, it was an education!
Did you manage to catch 'that scene' in The Seven Year Itch Howard?
Sorry I missed the chat. I was away this long weekend at the holiday place for the last time this summer. Hopefully Thor can arrange another meet sometime soon!
Sorry you missed it, Thomas. It was a very nice meeting. Around 3-4 at any given time (when someone left, someone else came in, so we mostly kept that number throughout). There was surprisingly -- and refreshingly! -- little talk about film music, but some about film/TV. Mostly, though, about everyday things and personal stories and FSM and whatnot.
Also nice for us Europeans that the meeting ended at about midnight, although we missed Nicolai by ending it that "early".
Hope to host another pub chat in a month or so, when I'm back in Oslo and have established myself properly in the refurbished apartment (incl. new speakers).
Gosh, it's been almost half a year since this thread was last active. That's disconcerting. It was always intended for posting about weekend activities and booze, not only for Zoom meetings, but anyways -- I'm planning another Zoom Cheers on:
FRIDAY, MARCH 10, AT 9PM OSLO TIME.
Hope to see some of you there. Link will follow closer to the date.

Dammit, that’s 6:30am Friday here. I have to go to work.
I’m still determined to join one of these, drink in hand. I don’t care if it’s 6:30 am.......just not on a Friday.

Well, Rick, this is the 19th meeting. I'm toying with the idea of having a 20th anniversary edition that more or less lasts all day long (for me). On a Saturday; I start at 1PM or 2PM or so local time (that would be 11PM or midnight in Sydney), then perhaps with a break or two, then another afternoon part for some Europeans and then an evening part for the Americans. I'll let you know!

An all day chat?! That would be a challenge. A "chat-a-thon" perhaps?
That's exactly it! Obviously, I won't be able to be online all the time, but in intervals. Meanwhile, Rick, you can research what other Australians we could recruit for the first part.
But anyway, we're getting ahead of ourselves. That will (possibly) be the next meeting. For the next meeting, on March 10, it's a good, ol' fashioned Friday meeting.

Just popping back to the board for a moment after some time absent to say that I hope to be there for at least some of the time, but I won't make the 9pm kick-off.

What, you've got a regular pub to visit first?! The OUTRAGE!
I'll try to keep it going until midnight at the earliest, probably around 1AM Oslo time, so hopefully some time for you to jump in.
No, but the flick's On Demand so I just may have to give it a "whirl."
