I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth?

[Redbrick-birthday] Book/Magazine meeting
by Michelle A. Graham 26 Feb '06

26 Feb '06

Hey all, as those of you who've been following along the thread re: the book know, Karl suggested meeting up in college one night, so we can do some proper organisation of both that and the collage. Suggested date is the 25th of Feb, and the time is about 5pm. Who's interested?

[Redbrick-birthday] Magazine/Book perhaps?
by Michelle A. Graham 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Hi all, just regarding the magazine, I know there are a few people working on it but I a) can't quite remember them all and b) don't know if anyone has written much, so could those who ARE involved speak now, and just say whether things have been written? We need to make a start on an estimate for printing costs, and we can't do that til we have a rough size of the item :) Also we're fast running short on time to get it all printed up and ready for the event itself, and it'd be nice to not have to rush it, it's been ten years in the making, why ruin it at the last hurdle? thanks, Michelle -- 'Cause I'm just a little girl you see But there's a hell of a lot more to me Don't ever underestimate what I can do Don't ever tell me how I'm meant to be

[Redbrick-birthday] The story so far...
by Michelle A. Graham 24 Oct '05

24 Oct '05

Heya all, I've been on this list since before the summer and I've seen a lot of ideas come and go. Now I'm wondering, do we have a list of the ideas that are going to be followed through on? The magazine is one, I hope, any others? The other point I want to bring up is donations. As you all know, we are very eager to get lots of money scabbed from the associates (AND members, don't worry), and I'd like to extend the hand of begging to everyone on this list first. We're looking into getting a paypal account at the moment, but if that can't happen does anyone have any great ideas? Personally I think leaving it in my bank account would be perfectly acceptable... :) Michelle -- 'Cause I'm just a little girl you see But there's a hell of a lot more to me Don't ever underestimate what I can do Don't ever tell me how I'm meant to be

by Dara Ó Maolaodha 23 Oct '05

23 Oct '05

Hello all, As you may or may not be aware, last night I unwittenly get myself involved with the committee this year as the new Events Officer. As you can all assume the 10th year birthday is now the most important date in my mind (its sad i know) so the 3rd of March it is. Already I have a meeting with a lovely lady from clontarf castle trying to pitch her hotel to me, i'll see what great deals I can get from her (it'll probably be like gettting blood from a stone but i'll fill you all in on the gorey details later) For those who havent been to Clontarf Castle before or for those who would like a quick reminder what room/place I am talking about here is a few pics http://www.thez0rekorp.com/private/v/clontarf/ >From now on, please email me all your ideas and suggestions for this event, I see there is somethings going on and if any support is needed for these to continue please let me know and i'll see what I can do.. As you all seem to be the more interested people I will try to mail this list at least weekly to keep you all updated with progress Also can anyone with details of who I can get in contact with in regards to sponsership in any companies that you may have these details for? I'd love to hit a few companies for some cash and will be chasing them up as soon as I get this Halloween Event over with, i'll also be after other companies but i'd like to skip the crap of who do i talk to etc from receptionist. :) I want to have this Event planned and done in December so I can concentrate on ticket sales (if there will be a price on them, depends on sponsership etc) so that I can cover costs and reinvest money again into the event. Thanks for reading this long eassy :) again any questions/suggestions/critism please mail me Regards Dara ps. if this appears from disusered@rb its cause chfn is broken

[Redbrick-birthday] About the book..
by Conor O' Kane 27 Jun '05

27 Jun '05

Sorry if this has been raised, but only going through the archives now and haven't seen it.. Why have a book? If it's going to cost �X00 and involve a lot of wrangling, is there anything more worthy of that money, time, and effort? I'm just wondering.. people have jumped on the idea of the book without really anyone setting out a case for it? Like someone else said, maybe it could be a magazine or something smaller instead? Or maybe a website like RedbrickAt10.com (or something, I'm not some domain name thinking up guy :o)) since we have the space and so many talented web design people and the cost would be minimal to register the domain. Don't mean to throw cold water on the idea but just wanted to play devil's advocate especially when it's an idea that could so easily not work out that well (good intentions and all that) Peace, C -- Tum Ganesh nahiin ho!

[Redbrick-birthday] Brief Meeting Summary (Tuesday 21 June)
by Karl Podesta 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

Hey up, In attendance: art_wolf, markpb, kpodesta. Summary: We had a nice chat for about an hour, mostly discussing possible ideas as opposed to coming up with a definate plan. But it's not up to us to make a plan & tell everyone how it is anyway (especially not without any committee members present!) - merely to talk out ideas and roughly agree on how we can progress them. Important: we should make sure we try and organise things together as best we can - without any poor people (cmte or associates) storming ahead with their own ideas, on their own time! "Book": - For the moment, everyone (list/offlist) should contribute to the wiki - An email alias could be added for lazy redbrick members to mail stories to - Revisit the content/wiki properly in perhaps 2 months time to guage content Event: - A few ideas exist; we could possibly vote on which would suit us all best - 1838 Club (DCU fancy dining room): could host meal, slideshow, collage/book - Year long programme of events: Redbrick could use birthday idea thru year - We should make sure committee don't take the entire burden! Collage: - Scan in any stuff (posters/tickets/photos), thumbnail it on web, so that people can create "digital" layouts for the collage, or a digital collage - Pick a day in a month or two's time in DCU: everyone brings in stuff, we do it all on the floor of The Hub Seminar Room (or something). Sponsorship: - We could possibly hit companies for some birthday "presents" to Redbrick Misc: - DCU's own Anniversary is upcoming; drusilla has already made official contact with regards us helping out, or linking up in some way - What does Huskerdu really look like? I hope that's everything! Karl -- Hello. I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is: No. -- What was the question again?, "The Springfield Files"

[Redbrick-birthday] Meetup Reminder
by John Doyle 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Hey, Just a quick reminder about the meetup this evening in Bewleys. 6:30 - Bewleys, Grafton St were the details I believe :) Cya there, John -- [23:17 06/April/2004 #lobby] <Yossarian> Hrm, if I'm not winning 'sweetest ass' - and my ass is winning for being hairy in 'best hair' - then logic would dictate that drusilla has one hell of a hairy arse. *ponders*
