No problem...

You will see a guy who will be speaking loudly, trying to impress the girls, flashing his BMW X5 key etc.

That's Rhyme :wink:

HAHAHA.

Yea, let me rephrase for you.

You will see a guy who will be speaking loudly (ok i do), who is covered in baby drool, looks exhausted from having a kid, is largely overweight, flashing his one-step-away-from-a-minivan key.

It was cool meeting you guys, grab a drink, and talk about random stuff. I'll definitely have to check out Ski Mom and Jersey Shore. Now I have motivation to start prepping for my Booth interview! My email is gkumar [period] gmail [period] com. Keep in touch guys.


You've never seen Jersey Shore?!?! You are missing out my friend. Be sure to check on YouTube for the SnookiePunch. :P

Sorry I had to duck out early. Blame Ross. Let's do this again!

Sorry, its taken me this long to get back to this thread, I was always surfing on my cell phone and finally got a chance to sit down on a computer.

It was a great time hanging out with our fine fellow gmatclubbers.....and of course, we had an audience with The Rhyme :P.

Attached are a couple of pics... just for unplugged.. we missed you at the meetup. :) As you can see from the pics (and take my word for it!), they all represented !!!!

Thank you very much deadlee.

We can make a bigger dent when we all meet up( probably at quantjock's party in Carribean).

Though I did not attend, I was with you guys......see.

BTW, what is 'pub quiz' and 'heineken cup' ? I'm very much interested in attending these. Probably, I can cover my beer costs by having a regular presence there on Mondays

If you wait until post Mar 19 (once I'm back in Amerika), I might be in :)

My wife has a cousin (somewhere near downtown) and my sister/bro in law in Hyde Park, so there's always a reason to head to the Windy City.

Ok I'm confused ---

Can people post dates they are in town? We can look for the most overlap.
