[01:49] <nhaines> rww: if there aren't any booth layout plans, could you send me the SCALE PDF so I can see the booth location?  I'll look at the supply list and work something out.
[01:54] <pleia2> nhaines: sec, let me see what I can come up ith
[01:54] <pleia2> with
[01:55] <nhaines> pleia2: thanks!
[01:55] <rww> pleia2: I magiced the SCaLE PDF up for him

[01:56] <pleia2> linked to the wiki
[01:56] <pleia2> now everyone can have it :)
[01:56] <pleia2> (just the map, not the whole pdf, obviously!)
[01:58] <rww> we're booth 17, so top-left corner of second block down on the left
[01:58] <nhaines> Bad news: we're in the back.  Good news: we have a corner booth.  So usually we can drop the outer rail, put tables along the back and inside wall, and have an open layout.  Very, very sucessful in the past.
[01:58] <rww> we were in the back last time I was at SCaLE, didn't seem to hurt much
[01:58] <rww> i am pleased with corner
[01:59] <nhaines> rww: corner is much more beneficial than back is bad.
[01:59] <rww> indeed
[02:00] <nhaines> Anyway, dropping the outside rail gives us more room to aim the catapult at the Mint and Fedora booths.
[02:00] <rww> there's a mint booth? god help us
[02:02] <rww> there isn't a mint booth, fortunately :OP
[02:04] <rww> nhaines: what's that semi-open thing to the left of our booth?
[02:05] <nhaines> rww: just some kind of supply closet, I think.  It's not actually open.
[02:05] <rww> boo
[02:27] <Corey> Where should I Food in san francisco?
[02:28] <Corey> pleia2: WHERE FOOD?!
[02:29] <pleia2> Corey: still in town?
[02:29] <Corey> pleia2: Nope, but back again.
[02:29] <pleia2> haha
[02:29] <Corey> I head south for SCaLE tomorrow night.
[02:29] <pleia2> I have no plans, so I'm happy to seek food with you if you want
[02:30] <Corey> Where were you thinking?
[02:30] <Corey> And can we grab MJ this time, or is he off slaving away in the data mines?
[02:30] <pleia2> who knows! staying where you were before?
[02:30] <Corey> Indeed!
[02:30]  * ianorlin already is south
[02:30] <pleia2> he's got a friend in town this week, so they're off having fun w/o me :(
[02:30] <Corey> Holy crap.
[02:30] <Corey> MJ has friends? *rimshot*
[02:30] <pleia2> he had to fly her in from boston
[02:30] <pleia2> hehe
[02:31] <pleia2> ok, let me think
[02:31] <pleia2> been to burger bar in union square?
[02:31] <Corey> The restaurant in the hotel is great if you're into uninspired food with extortionate pricing.
[02:32] <pleia2> it's tastey, they have fancy burgers
[02:35] <Corey> pleia2: Sit-down place, or grab-n-go?
[02:35] <Corey> Oh, if you've not discovered Katana yet, OH MY GOD
[02:35] <pleia2> Corey: sit down
[02:35] <pleia2> not heard of katana
[02:35]  * ianorlin is hungry now
[02:35] <pleia2> (aside from the slicing weapon)
[02:35] <pleia2> ianorlin: hehe
[02:35] <Corey> pleia2: Oh my stars!
[02:36] <Corey> http://www.yelp.com/biz/katana-ya-san-francisco
[02:36] <darthrobot> [403] Title: [403 Forbidden]
[02:36] <Corey> Ooh. Darthrobot got told to go pound sand by yelp.
[02:36] <pleia2> lol
[02:36] <pleia2> katana looks good
[02:36] <Corey> It's AWESOME but always busy.
[02:36] <pleia2> hehe
[02:36] <Corey> (I know it's a bit nutty to rave about a ramen joint, but...)
[02:37] <pleia2> well, if we decide it's too busy there are always 400 other food places right near it
[02:37] <Corey> Good point.
[02:37] <Corey> Want to meet at my hotel lobby then wander over? Gotta get the fitbit steps in!
[02:37] <Corey> Oh, anyone else here up to join us?
[02:37] <Corey> Gareth: Forget SCaLE, come get ramen with us in SF!
[02:38] <pleia2> lol
[02:38]  * ianorlin needs to start getting up earlier
[02:38] <pleia2> ok, putting my work into a state I can leave it in, meet you in lobby at 7?
[02:38] <Corey> Works well.
[02:39] <Corey> I just sent Gareth his much-delayed slides for my upscale talk, I think I'm ready to rock.
[02:39] <pleia2> cool, see you soon
[02:48] <Gareth> Corey: bit a drive for ramen :)
[02:51] <nhaines> Gareth: on the ohter hand, it *is* ramen.  :)
[02:51] <Corey> Gareth: But worth it.
[02:54] <Corey> Gareth: You can either fly like an eagle, or drive like a peasant.
[02:54] <Corey> And now I'm off to meet pleia2 for ramen.
[03:10]  * Gareth snaps a wet towel at Yasumoto 
[03:19] <Yasumoto> Gareth: yow!
[03:38] <Gareth> :)
[03:40]  * ianorlin is still hungry
[03:59] <Gareth> Yasumoto: how have you been?
[04:18] <rww> Gareth: hrm. If I did my SCaLE registration a bit wrong, is that a you thing or a someone else thing?
[04:19] <rww> I paid for it instead of using the LoCo code because I forgot there was going to be a LoCo code, and also I think it says something other than "Community Member / Ubuntu California" for my job title and location
[04:19] <rww> actually, "rww on freenode / Ubuntu California" would work better, I always miss not having an IRC nick on those badge things
[04:21] <Gareth> rww: I can update it so you're an exhibitor, if thats what your asking.
[04:21] <rww> yes that, sorry
[04:21] <Gareth> no worries.
[04:25] <Gareth> rww: when did you purchase your pass?
[04:26] <Gareth> nm. found you.
[04:27] <rww> ah, good, because I can't find the email o.O
[04:28] <Gareth> updated.
[04:30] <rww> thanks :)
[04:30] <rww> who's organizing keysigning this year? Phil Dibowitz?
[04:37] <nhaines> I can't even remember what my badge says.
[04:37] <nhaines> Probably "Project Member / Ubuntu"
[04:37] <rww> I think I went a bit loopy and put my actual job info on there. can't remember
[04:38] <ianorlin> I can't remember either
[04:47] <Gareth> rww: Not Phil.  Aaron Toponce.
[04:47] <rww> ah, nice
[04:51] <Yasumoto> Gareth: good! keeping rather busy up here, how've you been? :)
[05:02] <Gareth> Yasumoto: good good.  a bit busy myself :)
[05:03] <Yasumoto> heh, yah I bet :)
[05:15] <bkerensa> pleia2: Gareth: do you have any experience bringing lanyards and buttons as carryon in a backpack by chance?
[05:15] <bkerensa> TSA doesn't list either but I don't want to be stuck leaving 500 of each at airport
[17:15] <raevol> firefox was using 200% of my cpu (4-core) so i closed it
[17:15] <raevol> and now it's using 300%....
[17:30] <pleia2> bkerensa: shouldn't be a problem
[17:31] <pleia2> I haven't done it, but lanyards are fine and I can't imagine they'd get grumpy about pins
[17:54] <Corey> Gareth: Ooh, Aaron is going to be at SCaLE?
[17:55] <Corey> bkerensa: Where are you flying from?
[17:56] <pleia2> Corey: next time, less whiskey
[17:56] <Corey> pleia2: Train harder!
[17:56] <pleia2> haha
[17:56]  * pleia2 drinks more water
[18:24] <Gareth> Corey: seems that way. :)
[18:46] <pleia2> lost my grandmother this morning, if anyone needs any last minute scale things... I am probably not the best to ask, head isn't on straight
[18:46] <pleia2> (and yes, I'm still coming)
[18:47] <blitz> sorry to hear that
[18:47] <pleia2> thanks
[18:51] <Corey> pleia2: My condolences.
[18:57] <pleia2> thanks Corey
[19:05]  * ianorlin seems likes he missed major sad news
[19:33] <Gareth> pleia2: so sorry to hear that :(
[19:37] <pleia2> ianorlin: lost my grandmother this morning
[19:37] <pleia2> Gareth: thanks
[19:50] <ianorlin> that is never good
