I would be into participating, but with it being during work hours, I probably can’t attend.
Nothing wrong with being fashionably late! I set the meeting to go for three hours, just in case we're having a ball. Dave has a good point though--maybe I should do something sooner, on a Sunday, and then really build it up leading up to Feb. 20. Which would also give people a chance to come to their senses and bail before it's too late... :ROFLMAO:

I have been in a couple of Zoom chats with members here. I really did like meeting/seeing the guys that were there (Brobs was in one of them), but it is very awkward for me to smoke on camera and talk. It's kinda of like having a zoom meeting about chewing bubblegum. If I am available, I'll check in on this, but I make no promises.

So just smoke, they'll have you muted anyway! :)

I won't be having a work from garage afternoon that day, lol ---- I'd hate to show up and have to pretend to be looking at all sorts of reports and crap (he says while typing at work) --- love all here, but not using vacation time on you mutts!

Remember, you can go commando as long as you're not sharing video. But then I'd insist that you cover up while sharing the video and muting the audio if a theosophical rant is forthcoming. Going back and forth between the two may get exhausting, like Robin Williams swapping back and forth in Mrs. Doubtfire.

Not a problem. I won't be smoking myself, as I only smoke outdoors, and it's guaranteed to be way too cold to do that.

not using vacation time on you mutts!
Well, we were going to give you the box pass as a reward for attending, but now, not so sure...

Nice! Can't wait for everyone to talk awkwardly over one another because of the lag.
Don't forget the uncomfortably long periods of silence in between. Only broken by the archetypal "Wow, nice Devil Anse, is that the Creme Brulee crackling I hear in the background?"

I’m in but why wait? I enjoy Zooming with pipe collectors and smokers several times a week. We probably have enough old retired guys to hold a breakfast club chat. We need someone with an account to host it. After awhile it’s like you’re sitting in a smoke filled hotel room at a pipe show or at the shop with the guys.
