Next Meetup Sat, Sept 5

Many, many thanks to Kevin for hosting the last meetup. It was an excellent afternoon!
 
Next meetup, we will be taking advantage of a local treasure. . .tubing the Edisto River from Givhans Ferry State Park. Kevin and his family went twice last month and Dame Beth has been as well. Sounds super fun! (NOT super painful like the Moderna ‘rona vaccine! *rubbing my arm*)
 
If you will be in town Labor Day weekend, we’ll be there Saturday, Sept 5. Timing is kinda impor’an’ so we can all launch together. The whole journey takes 2-3 hours depending on if/when we “pull over” at beaches etc. There is a great company that will take care of equipment, transit back etc if you book via the link below. Not totally necessary to pre-book if you’re not sure if you can make it, as long as you arrive at the right time to link up with us on the day.
 
I’m thinking we should target a launch around 11 am, so arrival about 10:30ish.
 
 
I realize this meetup is not everyone’s cup of tea and our next meetup will be more conventional. 🙂 We’re booked with dogs every weekend in Sept after Labor Day so I can’t host in September, but if the mask mandate goes away we could go back to a bar/restaurant. It was originally set to end at the end of August, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they pushed it out. . .fingers crossed that it isn’t extended.
 
TYFYC!

NA Meetup Recap

Thank you to all who came out last Saturday! Pictures below.

We have one last weekend of mask-free liberation and I hope to take advantage of it. . .but I’ll probably still just work, clean the house and grocery shop. I’m so exciting. 🙂

David from NC and his wife are coming back down. I will send an email to the listserv if you are free and want to join us.

TYFYC!

Next Meetup June 20

Next meetup at Taco Boy downtown on Saturday the 20th. It’s also on the meetup site here.

Taco Boy is now taking reservations online, which is way better than in mid-May when we had to call and hang out in the parking lot until they texted us.

Maybe by the 20th all of this ‘rona $h*t will be out the window. Who knows. For now, I have reserved a table of 8 that has 7. Anyone beyond the first 8 will need to make their own reservations. 🙂 Here’s the link.

Choose your own adventure!

RSVP to me via the meetup link, or preferably by email by the 18th and I will update everyone via email on the list I have etc. If you’re making your own, that would be very useful to know as well.

We’ll get the meet-shoot in the books soon as well. . .really looking forward to that in these nutty times. Good gravy.

If you’re new – pics from past meetups below. TYFYC!

Next Meetup – Sat May 2

ITM y’all – thank you to everyone who defied the Wuhan virus fear mongering and came out yesterday!

Save the date – next meetup will be Saturday, May 2. . .technically 7 week cycle as I can’t do the previous weekend.

This is Derby Day as long as the Derby isn’t cancelled in the meantime!

TYFYC!

Donating toward Animated No Agenda

ITM y’all! I’ve had quite a few questions about this, so here are the options if you want to show Value for Value re: Animated No Agenda.

Option 1 – Show Credit: If you want NA show credit toward your peerage, but you also want to let John & Adam know that you are donating in recognition of the animations, you should use the first link below. It goes direct to the NA PayPal, but has a special notation that it came from supporting Animated No Agenda.

Donate here direct to the show for show/peerage credit

Option 2 – Donate to the Art Director and Get Credited on YouTube: Alternatively, if you want to help me defray the costs of the software I am using and any future self-hosting costs I may have to incur as YouBoob gets worse and worse, you can donate to me via the second link below and I will of course split all proceeds with the show.

You won’t get credit toward your peerage, but you will get my everlasting gratitude, and a credit in the end of the next clip I produce and in the YouTube notes of that clip. 🙂

Donate to my S-corp (called IITA) via PayPal for credit in the next clip and I will also share with the show!

Donate via the CashApp

Donate via Strike

***We are now streaming sats y’all!*** If you’d like to donate that way, I recommend using Podfriend as it worked immediately and supports video (works in any chromium-based browser and mobile apps are on the way). Click here to access via Podfriend. If you want credit on the next clip, you’ll have to let me know separately via email since the sats are anonymous.

If you are allergic to electronic payments, you can send checks by snail-mail to the address below. Make the check out to IITA Inc. and put ANA in the notes field. You might want to email me too as I don’t visit the box very often. 🙂

TYFYC! LGY!

Save the Date and SEWE

***I sent this via the Lowcountry listserv, but posting here too for those who haven’t yet subscribed.***

ITM y’all – thanks again to those that came out last Saturday. When I mentioned that the next 6-week cycle would overlap SEWE I must have been letting the vodka talk.

  • Next meetup will be in March. . .probably Saturday, March 14.
  • SEWE is always around Valentine’s Day and is in less than 2 weeks.
  • I know how I made the mistake in my head, but it would take too long to explain and is dumb anyway. 🙂

In any event, Gary and I will still be venturing to at least the art portion of SEWE at Charleston Place on Saturday, Feb 15. I know I went on and on (and on) about it, but it is a great event with activities all over the peninsula. I highly recommend the birds of prey demos (Marion Square), the dock dog competition (at Brittlebank) and of course the ART (Charleston Place and the Gaillard). They also have a lot of hunting and fishing gear for display and sale. Guns, guns, guns! Reels, reels, reels! And also some serious freaking knives. See https://sewe.com/

If you have any plans to go to Charleston Place on Sat the 15th, let me know. We are dog sitting that weekend so can’t do the full SEWE experience, but we’ve made acquaintances with some of the artists that we’d like to see again this year.

I’ll let you know when I’ve scheduled the next “official” meetup for mid-March.

TYFYC!

Meetup Thursday Dec 19!

Hope to see y’all at the next Meetup this Thursday! We can celebrate show 1200 together. 🙂

We’re meeting at Edmund’s Oast second location – the one on upper King next to Warehouse. Gary and I will be there from 5:30ish and I will hang at the end of the bar nearest the door to catch other producers (similar to where we were when we met here in May). I will bring heads on sticks too – both the photo versions and the animated versions. 😉

If you’re new – pictures are below from past meetups so you can find us.
