    I'm there!

    (This reminds me of a terrible old joke for some reason) ...

    Sam and Leah, both in their 80's, are discussing the possibility of getting married. Leah says, "If I marry you, Sam, I’ll want to keep my poodle, Chi Chi. She’s my life."
    "That's OK with me," replies Sam.
    "And I’ll also want to keep my Lexus," Leah continues.
    "That's also fine with me. It won’t be a problem," says Sam.
    "And not only that," says Leah, "I’ll want to make love 6 times a week, without fail."
    "That's no problem with me," says Sam. "Put me down for Mondays."

            That will be wonderful to take that time slot every day! Hope we get enough people! We're heading there! : ) Gassho, Grace.

                You can count me in on this as well.

                Great idea!

                      Count me in.

                      I am GMT+1, probably till the end of March (never know when we restart DST), so I could do a fixed hour in the mornings around 6am GMT+1.
                      This might be shortly after the East coast evening sits??

                      Would sit at weird times to fill gaps (European weekends and nighttime).

                      If the engineers could create and keep a "room" in hangouts for the whole time (with maybe a "dummy" account all time in), it would be easier for me to just jump in with my phone - I don't see anything on my screen, but obviously I am broadcast (in my pajamas...) .

                      Fiddling with my sllloooowwww computer at night time to set up the following hangout would make things more inconvenient.

                      As we trust each other, a fill-in-name-list would suffice, too, I guess.

                      Great idea!

                      Regarding the joke, I've sometimes heard that one becomes enamoured with zazen, but never in such an explicit comparison .
                      (Taking note to ask about that during precepts study...)

                      Gassho,

                        Sounds great. Lover of spread sheets that I am, I couldn't resist drafting a schedule



                        Once we have the dates and everything sorted, I can make the schedule editable for folks to put their names in.
