I work in the credit card industry- so obviously it does collect interest- say 1 beer a month :)

I looked briefly at the schedule this weekend and there didn't seem to be a free period where we could meet up. Anyone have any ideas? I need to look at it more closely tonight.

That sounds like a good plan. Anyone know any restaurants in AA? I was sick when I went to visit, so I didn't eat much.

Depends on the cuisine that people would go for. For those who love italian, Zingermanns is a local favorite, but is very pricey. There is also Seva(Indian), Paesano (Italian) and a variety of other cuisines too. I am game for anything as long as there are a few veggie/vegan entrees.

I like food. Preferably cooked food, unless its sushi. Other than that, I don't have too many qualifications.
