[TriLUG] introduction

[Kevin Flanagan]

Dane,


    Welcome!  Magnus mentioned the size of the group, I believe that 75 
folks is not uncommon for a monthly meeting, someone will surely correct 
me if I'm off.  ;')  By and large the group is great, like all 
collections of humans, it's kind of dysfunctional at times, but all said 
it's a great bunch.


    The whole ACC basketball thing fades pretty quickly come April, then 
things get back to "normal".  Making fun of the way others cook pigs, 
the way others talk, and so on.  ;')

 A few things to keep in mind:
    - Let them rant on about March Madness, it'll pass, does every year.
    - Barbecue is a noun, not a verb, and it's made from Pig, not Cow.
    - Prepare for a Cholesterol raising experience, look up fatback if 
you need proof



Seriously, I moved here just about 5 years ago and wouldn't move back to 
the frozen North country.
