Hey guys (and girls!),

Thanks for the warm welcome. It took me a while to get it all together but at last I have joined the club! Thanks for the invited to the armor party Chris and even though I didn't have any armor at the time to fix / adjust, you guys were a great help in letting me see the armor up close and understand more about how the whole thing comes together. Sometimes just knowing more is a great start when you know next to nothing!

I would love to try to go trooping sometime soon, but weekend-long events won't work for me since I work every Sunday. I can pull of stuff on Saturdays or weeknights. I'll keep my eyes on the forums for up coming events that I can go to. And hey, if y'all are planning to have another armor party again in the St. Louis area, I'd love to come. Heck, I could even host it - my kids would get a kick out of a gang of troopers in their living room!

Anything else I need to know to get "up to speed" as it were? One thing I want to do is get on the list for the 501st trading cards - that's the big thing that pulled me into this to begin with. But if there is anything else I need to do or be aware of as a member of the Legion, well, just let me know! Thanks all!

Rob

Hey Rob,

Most troops are single day events (just a few hours). The only weekend long troops are usually conventions or the occasional Rose Parade. And if it's that important, I ask off from work.

There's an armor party next weekend in Jefferson City, if you check the forums. Otherwise I was thinking of having another one sometime in the spring.

In addition to that, I was talking about having a Firefly and/or Battlestar party to get people like Pajama Boy up to speed on the coolness of modern sci-fi. Eric's never seen either of those, and we need to get him hooked.

I know nothing for sure, but the next set of trading cards should start taking payments fairly soon I would guess. There's a lot of people that want in, though, so it may be a struggle to get a spot. I guess we'll see.

See ya soon!

Chris,

Can't do the Jefferson City party next weekend, but I'll keep an eye out for the next one in our area.

I've haven't seen Firefly or BG either, so I guess I can come to Eric's defense (you're not alone!). I remember watching old school BG on TV in the late 1970's - good times! :)
