First... Pressing Stuff!The Animal Farm Book Club discussion will be at The Whiskey House in Ankeny on Friday, November 30th! I will be there by 6:30, convo to start at 7:00. A band starts playing at 9, so that will be our cut off for good conversation (but not for drinks and casual chatting!). Please RSVP to me via phone, text, e-mail, or FB by noon on the 30th so I can grab the right sized space. People participating in TV Club: Gargoyles should be closing in on the halfway mark through Season 2 right now. I am behind that--I just finished City of Stone. SO GOOD. SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD. Get to the end and want to chat? Hit me up! People participating in Comic Club: New Warriors should be cruising towards issue 26 (deadline for that is end of December). I'm through issue 7, so I am definitely behind. Get to the end and want to chat? Hit me up! The next Board Game Club is BATTLESTAR GALACTICA on December 2nd at 1:30. You should come! There's a link to RSVP on the Board Game Club page! IT IS AMAZING. Oh, and let's award a badge... Jawa Badge Alert: Huge thanks to Kelly and Michael for coming to Dinner Club: Django on November 20th! I forgot to get a picture!
The ForumThe Forum never worked out. It had almost 50 posts, but they were all from me, so... the Forum is dead. I have adjusted the Badges and other pages to eliminate references to the Forum, but I may have missed some. I know that this hampers the participative ability of the non-local folks, but in 55 days... I am the only voice in that room, and that just wasn't doing any of us any good. So instead, anything that you might have done on the Forum, you can now do on social media or in my inbox! Drop me a line, a letter, a text, a chat, a call, or a face-to-face meeting and we can talk about ANYTHING! EVERYTHING! Boom. Done. And better. Movie ClubsLosing the Forum was a little sad... but this one here is mega super ultra rough. Movie Clubs have not been going well. Princess Bride had one attendee, and Love, Simon (and y'all know how much Simon means to me) had zero attendees. So... we are reformatting. Fridays are rough, I get that. Instead, I am moving the next two clubs (Whiplash in December and Call Me By Your Name in January) to Wednesday nights. If they get the same general reception, I'll fold the movie clubs up and cancel the rest. It's life. Daily UpdatesNo more daily updates. I am going to try for an update after each Club event and for at least a weekly update either way. We'll see how we do! That's it for changes so far. BD365 is an ever-evolving monstrosity... and I thank you for taking part in it!
