Thanks for sharing our link, Bill. Since we update that page regularly, it doesn't show the programs we've held. We do have some photos of those at the...
... "> You suggest speakers be paid from "ticket sales", and that CAN work (if you mean tickets to the talk), but bear in mind folks are already paying...
Very good points, Sean, as always. Your observation about St. Patrick's Day is especially important, noting that there could be something family-friendly...
Hi all, Sorry to be disastrously off-topic but as I've generally found you guys to be the fount of all knowledge, I thought it worth a try: I am desperately...
There's an image of a post card at the link below showing the restaurant. If the resolution of that isn't high enough, perhaps you could contact the person who...
... The GOLDEN RIVET! Good man, Frank, that is exactly what we need! We finally have a spot where guys can take young ladies to show them the Golden Rivet. Hi...
Hi Scott, Always good to hear about the success at your new location. When I'm in the area over the summer I definitely need to stop by! ... Absolutely. It...
