Coffee, dinner, deserts, beer.
Cup O' Joe

Last month, I touched on driving Perl with IE using the Perl IE
libraries. Since then, I've graduated to using the selenium perl
libraries which are much cooler. I can talk about those a little bit.
Other than that, open subject, bring your interesting work or
questions.

We'll be meeting on Thursday, October 28, from 7:30 - 9:00 PM at 2checkout HQ.

Open mic night. Mostly Perl related, but if you're brave enough to sing, I'll take it.

We're going to meet at 2checkout. Bring your laptop and some code. Share something interesting about what you're working on or just find a buddy and hack on something cool.

I'll be bringing lunch meet, etc. for sandwiches. If you think about it, bring some food or non-alcoholic drinks to share.
